Holy shit, I pass one for sale on rt. 23 in Pequannock every day. I thought it was some person’s custom wet dream. I had no idea it came from the factory like that. It’s been sitting there for a while now and I have a feeling there it will stay for a while.

the interior looks like xmas candy.

YALL, LOOK, LOOK AT THOSE WONDERFUL GAUGES! PRAISE BE TO THE BASED GAUGE GOD!

I think that bowtie is a bit on the small side.

The first gen Harley Davidson F150 leaps to mind. It was an F150 that already existed, except they reduced the power of the supercharged engine, and slapped logos all over it.

CORRECT.

Outback was an L.L. Bean. Doesn’t make it better.

Should have trolled the Germans & moved the team to Dresden.

I’m sure there’s a subreddit for minivan fans. There absolutely has to be. I would be disappointed if there wasn’t.

I remember when Lincoln first did this with the LS their logic was that they didn’t want people saying they owned a Towncar, they wanted people to say they owned a Lincoln. But today with MK_ they have really gone off the deep end. I’m a “car guy”; I read Jalopnik every day, I know every car on the road, and I cannot…

Or just looks like your mainstream car, even if it drives much better.

Ironically the Azera looked more luxurious/distinct when it was the XG series, but it was still more Buick than BMW

Brand perception. Take Cadillac for example: they built some not-so-great cars for a while, and now, even with some stellar cars, people still aren’t buying as many Cadillacs as they are BMWs and Benzes, since they think they’re still crap cars. If Genesis wants to do well, they’re going to have to deliver some…

Not different enough from the mainline brand. The luxury car needs to have distinctive performance, styling, driving dynamics, features, and a sense of prestige.

I get arcs from Random House and review Star Wars books, and I’ve had my reviews blurbed on the backs of paperback releases. I love the old EU. However, despite what certain crazypants fan groups believe, a lot of the old EU novels are shite because of their ridiculous storylines. COPL is a fun read in part because of…

If we want Character Assassination, there’s always Dark Empire. You know, where Luke just becomes Darth Vader in service to a clone of the Emperor and tries to corrupt his sister into joining them. As you do.

Eh, Crystal Star is still a far, far greater crime against humanity than Courtship ever was.

The problem is that some people tend to consider things like making sure Grandma doesn’t freeze in winter or a black child can read “waste”.

Since Honeycomb was for tablets instead of phones, I think the name references ads for the cereal. “Honeycomb’s big! yeah, yeah, yeah! it’s not small! No, no, no!”
