This is a CX-5 on AutoTrader, looks to be a US market vehicle, I see the same headlight adjustment dial mine has in the pod to the left of the steering wheel, below the vent. Definitely seems legal.

Also, for the sake of your fellow motorists, if you have one of these dials and you typically drive in well-lit urbanized areas, flip that about as low as it’ll go.

For sure - I just mean, going by fueleconomy.gov, it doesn’t take long to find cars where their cost to fill is higher than the numbers listed here, although in some of the cases it’s a 20ish gallon tank (a little below the Sequoia), offset by the higher fuel price. But absolutely, the dual hit of a 6.2L fullsize

As a dissenting voice, it’s 20 years old, it’s one of the last pre-DaimlerChrysler-era products from when Chrysler took big swings beyond just stuffing the Hellcat engine wherever it fit. It’s not perfect, but the LH’s were regarded as pretty decent cars in the era, right up until the warranty ran out.

Did they standardize everything to the cost of regular fuel? Because there’s plenty of higher end sedans that cost more to fill up, accounting for premium. For that matter, at 23.8 gallons, the Rolls-Royce Phantom earns a spot on this list, regardless of octane.

I remember the Bugatti EB112 and Chrysler Atlantic show cars, so the Eagle Jazz isn’t that surprising (although I wonder if it’s deliberately derivative of the EB112 which came out a year or two earlier, or just if they were sharing similar influences, which the deliberately vintage Bugatti-aping Atlantic would

I never knew about this, but that’s amazing.

Politics aside, there are two Prime Ministers in this lovely 300SL.

I used to live in a place that had a couch similar to this, sort of struck me as what if Maserati had a furniture line to celebrate the 3rd gen Quattroporte (perhaps Volvo from some of their Bertone coupes). And as much as they’re Swedish, I could see a Ikea collaboration with VW making sense (cheap, disposable, but

I remembered it, but what exactly makes the X-Type bad other than being based on the generally quite decent Mondeo? Cynical and mediocre for the price maybe, but bad?

I very much am not - the XJ and XK were great, the S-type is apparently lovely if a bit stodgy, and while the X-Type wasn’t exactly a success, it was based on a very decent Mondeo (and most of the complaints about it are less that it was particularly un-Jag like, and more just that it was based on a mainstream sedan).

Jaguar has built some unreliable cars, they’ve built a few unremarkable cars (looking at you E Pace), but there’s nothing that strikes me as truly bad (or at least possessing enough charm to overlook a few quibbles).

Between the pitiful breakover angle and those slicks, I don’t think this thing is digging through any ditches. And, while, you probably could burn through the witches, I think they prefer to be called wicca, and speeding through your local maker’s market really isn’t cool man.

Once you’re at speed, I’m not even sure how much you’re hearing over wind noise.

Eh, you’re not really getting any guarantee that *any* pre-owned car wasn’t abused, and was properly maintained. On the other hand, apparently collision repairs on rental cars is less likely to show up on a Carfax, which some more unscrupulous dealers may use to your advantage. And as far as equipment goes, that’s all

Really the only difference is Canadian market units get the climate package (heated seats/wheel) standard, but that’s only a $500USD option.

It it’s good enough for the 4th gen Camaro, it should be DOT-legal?

As per OP, as the Kona is very much Civic-sized.

If that were true, shouldn’t the Civic-sized Kona EV (~$32k to start, 260 miles range) be selling more respectably than it is?

Late C3 Corvettes - fantastic looking hot garbage. Built in decent numbers, so you likely won’t get too much pushback on improving a few.
