When my dad’s Super Beetle reached mid-life and needed work at the local VW dealership, I’d come along. I’d take all the brochures: Dasher, Scirocco and Rabbit.

The diecast is a prototype. Delivering next quarter. 

I almost un—ironically want to own one. It would be hard to have one without some irony. They’re not good to drive, none of the land barges from the era are. But it is an experience. Wafting and bouncing down the freeway without a care in the world. And for the price? Easy NP. I’d rather have the BMW, but this…

I love the wheels; not only do I think they fit this car perfectly, but they’re kind of a throwback. Wondering if the MPH vs. KPH thing had to do with when it was brought over. Either way, it looks to be in good shape...I’d drive it!

Cautious NP. MPH vs KPH may be a good thing to check on and not mad about the wheels at all.

Can’t even get a peaceful transfer of power in the crane world.

Hey...that’s what happens when the party you speak of advocates for a lack of education.  

The car did alert after hitting the deer, it just alerted RFK, Jr. to come pick up the carcass and dispose of it in Central Park. That’s the new protocol. 

Maybe it’s something I don’t know about, but the stickers and light showing it’s a manual is pretty damn cheesy. Now we advertise the transmission of a car?

Wrong Granada for sure. That’s the UK one. And the Mark 1 Granada in both sedan and coupe is a fantastic looking thing. 

Duuuuude. This is the Granada mentioned in slide 6.

This fits into my “If a Thing is what you want, this is probable a good one to grab” philosophy. I mean, it’s pretty darn nice for what it is and you’d be hard pressed to find another or restore one to this standard for $12K. I suppose it’d be a fun runaround car if you lived in a resort town or had a house on the…

“But buying the car would likely be a write off”

People are selfish assholes.

“It wasn’t me!  It was the one armed software engineer!”

The way the rest of America looks at Florida is the way that the rest of the world looks at America.

Probably already pardoned by DeSantis and being held up as a hero.

These CEO’s are whack, they really couldn’t just have a 4cyl hybrid for $45-50K? The screens are tacky, that grill thing is tacky. it’s different, which is why it’s inoffensive right now, but I suspect the looks will grow tired quickly. Give it a non shouty color and it’s just forgettable

This is just such a weird end result for what the concept car promised. So many bizarre design choices that are clearly the result of some years-long tug of war between the designers, engineers, and accounting/marketing.

Considering that price is more than twice what this family style econobox sold for new...
