Right, and that’s part of the problem! They want everyone to think “He killed the Sand Snakes, the bastard!” but they did such a poor job with the Sand Snakes that instead the strongest reaction is “Meh.” or “Good riddance.”

It begs the question just what did the masters cut...just the berries or the whole set?

“We just don’t like the innovations that make cars less involving and take control out of our hands.”

You’d need to compare it to the RS5 for a true performance comparison. It’s competitive with the C63 and the M3 as well. Price and bang for the buck isn’t the issue. The issue is a poor dealership network compounding reliability doubts. It’s one thing to have an unreliable car the dealer can make up for with 5-star…

100% agreed. Looking past the lack of that glorious ‘Ferrari’ motor, the base models just have no ‘pizzaz’ in their styling. They look so sleepy and bland when compared to the QF. I have ZERO desire to buy or own a base model and ALL the desires in the world to own a QF.

Consumer Reports has one. Apparently it has spent a lot of time at the dealer getting repaired. Which will surprise no one.

Or waiting to see if these are maintenance nightmares before jumping in. I wouldn’t buy this year one.

Because with a shotgun you can kill someone coming at you with a sword? Happens all the time. Ultimately it will come down to preference. Now I don’t disagree with you, as I personally don’t care for shotguns, but there is a huge amount of the community that is excellent with them.

Their interiors are a decade+ behind all other lux makers.

Horrible infotainment and mediocre seats. I know, I looked at the NX, RX, IS and ES and didn’t like any of them.

If that was the case, Cadillac sales would be through the roof. Their American luxury cars with those stats and cheaper prices than German or Japanese luxury should be no-brainer sales. Yet, somehow, their sales aren’t doing so well.....I wonder why.....

That’s it. I really WANT to like them. They make so much sense. But I just can’t.

So ugly....all of them....

Your opinion is dumb. Porsche sells more SUVs than sports cars, and they have been selling them since 2003. This isn’t me-too-ism. It’s their growth strategy. 21 billion euros in revenue can’t be wrong.

What does this even mean?

HOA not required. Lots of towns have strict lawn policies. There’s concern about snakes, mosquitoes and other pests. In a lot of places if you let it go too long, the city will mow it and then send you a bill. And it’s a lot more than any landscaping company would charge.

Mike, obviously.

When I was an undergrad at UCLA, I was walking back to my dorm from class. Steve Harvey had a booth set up on Bruin Walk, the main walkway from the dorms to the campus. He was a guest on a local radio station, and I recognized him from TV, so I joined the small crowd in front of the booth to watch him talk to the…

Obligatory.

They probably thought that being up on his car, they wouldn’t be able to get out of the fiery mess that was the Audi. They tried to make it easier to use the doors; especially being pinned against the post at the end there. Guessing it was for access to/by the people inside.
