I’m sorry but the car you just described is the new Grand Wagoneer. This car is pure sex on wheels.

MB has a solution that doesn’t look like shit:

And if the cycle continues, station wagons will follow the vans.

I’m planning to sell/trade in the BRZ for something automatic and reliable that will short term be my winter car, and eventually be a daily.

So... that’s my car. Sold it about two years ago. I daily drove it for about two years prior to that, but didn’t have anywhere to store it when I went to a newer car.

All the modifications to bearings will likely result in a requirement for an all-new oil circuit, which is a lot of work.

how evil of them to basically more or less invent modern social media

I’m not selling anything. A car with options over the base car, that costs more, isn’t a stripper model just because it’s not heavily optioned.

I found four searching nationwide on auto trader. From the pics, all four are honest to god six speeds. Three in Texas, one in Wisconsin. (I’m as surprised as you that half of them weren’t actually autos)

Wait. What. Sorry i’m stuck on this comment “My 3-year lease is up in January. In a normal world, I would just get a new 3-year lease of the same model vehicle.”

I’ve read over the Maserati forums and they seem to be pretty reliable. Seems like the ones treated like a weekend cruiser have issues.

Regardless of the legality, anyone (especially a professional photographer) should know that anything you put on Instagram might get ripped off and there’s fuck-all you can realistically do about it. I mean, it’s even happened to me and I’m nobody. It’s super scummy for big corporations to do this, but it’s also super…

This would be surprising if Volvo wasn’t owned by Geely.

While the Quattroporte used to come with a V8 standard, putting one in the Ghibli is a BIG DEAL! Although it may be right around $100k-$110k (depending on how basic the options get. I’ve had the non-S twin-turbo V6 2017 (base ~350 horse, ~165mph top speed) for the last 3 years and with the Zegna Luxury interior option…

The only Maseratis that I want are much slower.

Seems the FCA strategy of “HELLCAT ALL THE THINGS!” is finally spreading to Maserati. While the 3.8 twin turbo isn’t exactly the blown 6.2 Hellcat motor, it’s slowly becoming the second big-power unit offered by FCA. If we’re honest, this makes complete sense. The Ghibli and Quattroporte are getting pretty old, and…

They’ve always done that, as have most cars.  My ‘85 shares switches with most alfas and fiats (and also several lambos) of the era.  

Who signs a deal on a new Mercedes and asks the dealer “I really like the car but do you have any in stock that are the same color as my mother-in-law’s Camry?”

You can get an actual E55 with similar miles for a few dollars more. 

It sucks because the Elantra GT N Line really was a budget GTi. Equipping it with the manual gave it summer tires and helped it perform even better. And the auto was a slick shifting 7 speed with paddle shifters. They can be had for cheap used now thankfully. Screw crossovers though. The Kona is an ugly Juke like…
