Counterpoint: They shouldn’t be following you so fucking close anyways for rear end crashes.

Strictly on design? I’m not sure how you beat some of the cars coming out of the early 60s. No they weren’t great performers or particularly safe by todays standards. But they looked - great. For my money it would be Jaguar.

Sources? As an engineer in the industry this contradicts everything I’ve seen.

Hi. Californian here. Also (now former) Mazda owner, two different models; the late-model 6, and a CX-9.

Right now, I’m completely enamored with the Jaguar XF S Sportbrake.

Tesla-branded panel gap alignment gauge was a close second.

I’d want the new generation with I6, RWD, and a 6 speed manual. That would be perfection.

I think you got that backward. I would take a Model 3 any day over a BMW or Mercedes. BMW generally has shitty long-term quality and durability... same for Mercedes.

Surprising lack of Scooby Doo

Any niche, limited supply, performance-oriented, desirable/rare or non-appliance vehicle available only through a dealership.

Tesla Model 3. I like the size, the price, the exterior styling, and could, I guess, live with the interior. I can afford it, and in 2 or 3 years will likely be looking for something electric. But the company owner is a deal breaking flaw for me (and especially my wife).

Stripe packages!

Something tells me Tesla is going to feature heavily in this poll, as well it should.

Are there customers for that many units when drivers are already at a premium? I don’t know what turnover is and you still need charging stations for these.

Of course, an electric MR2 would make the prelude irrelevant

Sometimes adding a 3rd row is a joke, though. For many Crossover SUVs, the 3rd row is just some afterthought and any demographic that is considering a small-ish 3-row crossover is probably the kind of person who’s almost never going to use it except MAYBE if they have to transport 1 or 2 extra unforeseen children that…

Right, it’s the “we’re getting the plan together” part that seems weird to me.  I understand scheduling conflicts and everything, but you literally don’t even have a plan for season 2?  Shouldn’t there be a general plan for the overarching story before you even start season 1?

Oh yes it is!

Luxury German station wagons in the US - cars like the Audi A6 Avant, BMW 5-Series Touring, and Mercedes E-Class. Yes, 2 of which still exist new (but in the form of a faux SUV with tacky plastic cladding or an Uber-expensive high-performance model with a rough ride) but where are the regular luxury versions? Not sure…

The Dodge Magnum Wagon that never got to see its second and third generations. Apparently, the wagon was killed off by a single vote on the board of Cerberus, the entity that briefly owned The Remains of Chrysler Corporation. How sweet would a second or third generation Charger Wagon have been? There’s a guy on…
