Because god forbid GM sells cars people actually want to buy instead of being forced to rent.

The Chevy SS, while good on paper, was only half of the equation. For starters, this is a heavy car and you feel it every time you try change direction. It’s also, like almost every new car, damn near impossible to see out of with fat A pillars and a high belt line. I’m not a fan of sitting in a coal hole. Finally,…
Yes, the GT-86 had / still has 2 major strikes against it: its small and it sounds like a sick vacuum cleaner (sorry, no offense intended but that is my opinion). Make it a decent sized sedan that can carry 4 people and their luggage. Then drop a real motor in it - maybe a reworked H6 with help from Porsche again. I…
The percentage of people driving classic cars with no emissions controls is less than 1% of all vehicles on the roads. If you really care about saving the environment, the answer is keeping your old car longer. Ever look at the environmental impact of each new car made?
Good. Now maybe someone will get back to building a car that car guys actually want to buy. I’ll take a non-hybrid, RWD, manual sedan with a NA 6 (in any configuration, just make it sound like a mechanical experience and not an ovulating chimp), no driving nannies, a glasshouse I can actually see out of, a curb weight…
Great cars. I got hooked on a 300D which I sold with 286K miles (original engine and transmission) and currently own an E420 with 175K miles (also original engine and transmission), which is 7/10ths 500e. Go drive a new anything and then drive A W124. Nothing even comes close to the way these go down the road.…
Not exactly. You’re paying more up front but that buys you points which you can use to drive any of the ccc cars. There is a monthly membership fee of $200. But all in, still less than 12 months of the Cadillac deal... and you’re not stuck driving only Caddies (although nothing wrong with that).
There’s a better, cheaper way to do this:
Laughing at most of the comments on here regarding the M3. The perception is nowhere close to the reality but maybe that’s a good thing... it still means I can buy one of the best performance bargains for less than half of the new msrp. Oh, and the DCT transmissions on these are phenomenal. But let me stop babbling,…
“If anything catastrophically fails and it will” -
I’ll sell you my carbon black / caramel 2001 M5 with 145K miles for under $13K. No missing pixels, perfect front seats, no stage anything turbos to grenade the motor and the M5 will run proper, RWD donuts around this S4 all day long. CP
Need more QP. Only in NYC would someone street park 2 if these.
At the risk of sounding like an uptight, obsessive compulsive douche I’m going to say that I really don’t like anyone else driving my cars. I have one, really, really good friend who also happens to be an excellent driver and just as OCD as I am, that I trust. But that’s it. Too many well intentioned “car enthusiasts”…
Bring it over Buick! Nice job and a credible alternative to all the cookie cutter SUVs clogging our streets.
AWD doesn’t work in the snow with summer tires either.
I think what you meant to say was that a large portion of the country will waste their money on heavy, complicated AWD technology that isn’t needed with a good set of snow tires.
I’ve spent some seat time in one of these. Everything you think you know about MB just throw it out the window. These are evil, evil wickedly fast cars. One look at the solid castings of the suspension pieces tells you this isn’t just a regular AMG with some extra wide flares. They spent serious money making this car…
I would love nothing more than have to have the Elise return to the U.S., but the last Elise we got was a $50K+ proposition. How is this “entry level”?
When it comes to installing after market stereo speakers the only way to do it is don’t do it! Drives me nuts especially on older, classic cars. And I’ll bet $22500 there’s no way that’s the actual mileage. All that said, even with the air cooled market taking a breather right now, this is still a NP.
