Easy answer is Nissan Cube. Fun answer is an 80s Mercedes SL. A little campy, kinda fun, dual-character (topless and topped), more or less, reliable, well within his budget. Maybe get both.

I’m legitimately into the idea of an EV Transit. I signed up for emails, I’ve received two emails in a year. The first was “yay we’re introducing the EV Transit.” The second said, basically, “you probably think the EV Transit doesn’t do anything you want it to but it DOES!! We swear!!” Totally defensive as if it had

I love this idea also, because with that health condition, the long commute sounds way too sedentary to be good for him, regardless of seats/comfort.

I’ve had four Siennas and I can’t believe they haven’t given it a TRD treatment, to have a mini Sprinter 4x4 vibe. That aside, one thing they don’t have is good front leg room. It’s ok but underwhelming. That said, I FULLY endorse this idea.

BMW has had soooooo long to develop this model. No frunk is lame and lazy. Tesla has had frunks since 2012. Clearly this brand doesn’t care that Tesla has become a brutal consumer of BMW’s loyal customers but seems not to even try. Even the ghastly BMW iX gets no frunk (the hood is allegedly non-openable). Fools. I’ve

That that “cockpit” looks claustrophobia-inducing. 

I think car designers (Tesla excepted) are scared buyers think a car with no “grille” is just a step too far. Maybe it has to do with cars having “faces” and with no grille, it’s has no mouth. Sounds nuts but could be true.

It’s so clear. Want to show people you’re rich? Get the RR. Want to show people you have wealth (and class)? Get an Alfa Romeo Duetto. 

These things matter. I still boycott Coors for the crap they did with unions, women, LGBT and frankly, I work too hard to spend with jerks. Lucid is probably not quite my ride, so who cares but thanks for caring. I appreciate that.

I had no idea it was an actual hatchback. That DEFINITELY makes it cooler. Plus, it has a real spare tire? Bizarre. Call me interested. I’ll probably get a car with a plug next, so it’s sort of an antique but a nice one.

This is so true. One thing, the Audi made accomodations for the license place. The plate on the iX looks as planned as a band-aid over a boo-boo.

I was just watching a video on the Renault 5. It changed EVERYTHING about how Renault was viewed, about modern car design and about building a car that appealed to all tiers of poverty to wealth. BMW needs to review what it sees as its identity. There is no better time when introducing a huge debut into the market

First, ZERO criticism for the smart Covid precautions. It’s an ugly health challenge and I respect them for their efforts. After that, this is a tall price for this car. That engine, handling, nearly flawless interior are from the zenith of BMW’s excellence. But the car has a very $2100.00-esque-ness about it. At

Maybe the seller is just a little gruff after [nicely] maintaining an Alfa Romeo for 29 years. It is pretty and I even spot heated seats, a weakness for me, but it needs the right buyer and that won’t be me. 

Seems priced for bargaining. A quick scan of 75d options on CL in SF shows a 2018 at $55,800 with 10k miles. No Dice.

Hold out. We recently (pre-recall) replaced our ‘02 325it with a 2016 V60. The value was hard to deny because, well shopped, you get down-to-zero radar cruise control, power folding mirrors, great sound, heated wheel, seats, the rather rare spare tire (not a pump/kit), stunningly swift accelleration balanced by an eco

I have great compliments that the Lucid is devoid of all faux mesh crapola. Apologies to GTI, MINI, Mercedes-Benz, Civic but fake mesh is SO much worse than faux wood.

It’s weird, this “Maserati” has more miles (barely) and is just a third the cost of the Ghibli, it’s ALSO in Sacramento... and I think it’s way cooler.

Thank you for putting the cost of this BS in the headline, since, clearly nobody seems to give a toot about people dying. Maybe if it’s about $$$ they’ll care?

F*CK. I keep forgetting to buy a Lambo with my still-yet-to-arrive $1200 stimulus check. Can’t wait to unbutton my shirt, show a little belly, don some gold chains and get my Lambo with that $1200.
