They’re expensive, they’re largely not great to drive because they’re heavy as hell and are SUV’s, they have way too much tech and difficult interiors, fast charging still sucks ass in this country, and many people can’t charge at home because apartments and townhouses don’t have level 2 charging, or any at all.

People like the gti because it has good, competent performance without being offensive or problematic. You would have to make it stiffer to make it handle better, noisier to make it more exciting, hurt the practicality to make it look cooler, less efficient to make it faster, etc. Given that it's a car that normal…

What toyota are you talking about? The 4runner is now their only model that isn't on a new platform.

The model Y. Every other family I know either has one or is clamoring to get one. When people ask for recommendations for a new car, a model Y is always at the top of the list. I don’t like teslas, mainly for the trend they started of being too tech and software dependent, and the model Y is arguably their worsta and m…

Your hatred isn’t irrational, but the new prius isn’t that bad. Anyone 6'1" or below can fit just fine. 

The new TLX is really disappointing. Honda already has a great midsize platform in the Accord, its weird that Acura then went out of its way to make one that’s worse in nearly every way. I got stink in the past for saying this but I have zero doubt that Acura couldn’t do what it wanted to do with an accord the way it…

 I don’t think enough of a stink has been made about how impractical of a car this is. As it stands, this is the most cramped four-door car you can buy in probably the western hemisphere, but its far from the lightest, smallest, or most efficient. That’s more than enough to take this off of people’s shopping list. 

No we actually do. Its just one that wealthy homeowners and the rich and powerful hate. 

Fair enough. Again, I love the 720s so I’m glad it hasn’t been scrapped. I just expected more changes. Still looks great. As before though, I’m not a fan of the interior, whether it be the small vertical screen or lack of physical climate controls. 

I’m a little disappointed that they made such tiny visual changes to this, inside and out. The 720s was great, so reusing that chassis and body makes sense, but do something. Even Hyundai did more with the 2024 refresh of the Elantra. I also like what Ferrari did with the 488 vs the 458. This? It has to be the most…

Nothing surprising about regular (still likely wealthy) people being unable to buy a slightly more expensive car, while ferrari boasts record sales in this economy...

EV’s aren’t the cure yet, but the future of transportation is obviously fossil fuel free. PHEV’s are an excellent stop gap if done well. 

Your take doesn’t make alot of sense. Sure, this car is a BMW but its a cheaper BMW. The Z4 costs more, is less practical, and not as good to drive. In terms of reliability, these engines were tested by Toyota as to not let it tarnish their reputation. The whole point of this article is about how durable the motor is.…

“Why would you want a sedan that's sporty? If you want a sporty car just buy a sports car and a regular car!” yes, because everyone has the money to buy an two cars instead of one.

This is an insane hair brained take. The amount racism, total amount of representation at the Oscars or how the South Asian (and south indian to be more specific) community feels about this. It makes absolute sense to hire up South Asian dancers for this performance. Why on god’s earth would you not? It just makes…

PER CAPITA. Sure, per miles driven would close the gap a bit but it would still be significant.

Im sorry but you’re wrong. Yes driver training is the main factor but that reduces the issues we have here in the states. German drivers are more likely to buckle up, not drive drunk, and know where and where not to speed. Also there are more EU regulations around safety systems and vehicle designs. 

Whats funny and also dissapointing is that they ARE fully behind the N division now. The issue with the stinger is it really didn’t excel at anything. It was supposed to be a sports sedan but was never that sporty. It was supposed to be affordable but was undercut by most of the Kia/hyundai lineup in price. It was…

Im sorry but they don’t. A small car with good traction (awd not necessary) can handle cross county travel just fine. America isn’t the only country that has vast open stretches of open country, but we are one of the few that makes excuses to buy big ass trucks. 

My issue is that I don’t give a jack about the integra because its slow, so I’m now looking at it as a normie car, and in that case it fairs pretty poorly outside of its base trim, compared not only to the entry level luxury segment, which crucially now includes the Mazda 3 IMHO, but also “non-luxury” cars like the…
