That black plastic ugliness is the new fake-wood paneling.

It’s actually surprising how popular Mazdas are in New England, given just how badly some fairly recent models rusted.
Careening towards middle-age but fighting against it here. Could I do this both for clicks and as an alternative to the standard colonoscopy-prep drink?
Still not as Aardman-looking as a 1957 Oldsmobile;
“... badly trailed the segment leading Dodge Charger 4 to 1.”
It’s a DC/Marvel crossover one. Said raised Variant is also the Batmobile in that ‘verse.
“...the fact that Brian Griffin driving a Toyota Prius in Family Guy riffs on the stereotype that the only people who drive fuel-efficient, hybrid cars are self-absorbed hippie liberals trying to virtue signal.”
I still think the reason why automakers zero out the tow rating of small cars for the American market, when they deign to offer them at all, is to keep people pointed to more profitable models. There’s no reason why a subcompact can’t be rated to tow, say, 600 lbs with a max towing speed of 45 mph which is plenty for…
The sweet spot is the 4-door sedan version of something popular.
The Bentayga needs 16"silver-painted steelies with small black center caps whose “B” is molded in but NOT picked out with white paint.
“I LIKE BEER! In fact, Shhhennnator, I’m drunk right now!”
The problem’s not the idea of a 2+2 Corvette, it’s the way they attempted it.
No manual. I would settle for a mode for the CVT that lets it be itself and eliminates fake “shift points”, drive creep and all other dumb Turbo HydraMatic-emulator features from the programming.
The story about talking the parent who wanted to buy their kid an M3 down to a 325is; it’s just too bad your aunt didn’t get that salesman or someone similar to talk her down from the Northstar Seville to a 3800-powered Oldsmobuick.
No reason why they couldn’t do that by driving forward.
Both cars backed up easily 3-4' more than they needed to, for that matter.
At the very least it was repainted under warranty. I don’t think there’s been a single white (or silver or blue) Lumina with original paint that WASN’T delaminating from the primer since approximately 1992.
“Very Hard To Find” translates from eBay bottom-feeder to English as “I bought out the entire stock from three different Walmarts.”
If you can score a manual Honda Fit at a reasonable price don’t overlook it. It’s not *fast* (nor is it slow, really) but it’s definitely fun and far more useful than a sedan even two sizes bigger.
Depending on where in the country they’re moving the only issue I’d be wary of on an ‘00s Mazda is rust.
