God, if this doesn’t win COTD there is no justice in the world.

old interior

This. An armrest cover made out of synthetic leather shouldn’t cost $400 plus bucks. Engineer common failure points to be easily replaceable, and out of materials that are more durable.

boosting the longevity of interior parts by 50% requires an investment in new material composition and design

But my modified 12v just naturally smokes, can’t help it. I blame the big Garrett and quick manual upshifts.💁‍♂️

If you’re driving a truck at stock ride height with all emissions equipment intact, you’re fine and no need to apologize.

I don’t care what MPG you get or if you truck runs on the tears of terrified children, more power to you. Perhaps manufacturers can lower the headlight a smidge? A little below rear view mirror height of regular cars? The HID headlights are melting my rod and cones.....;)

MSRP: “1 ton” of cash

Jag won’t be building ANY sports cars until it make some actual money and generates a profit.  It just got blasted in Q4 2018 with a $4.4B loss.

Put a little English on it?

When a baseball moves on the ground in such a way that it seems to swerve past a defender closing in on it, the terminology is that the batter put “a little English on it.” But the way that Twins second baseman Luis Arraez hit this ball towards White Sox third baseman Yoán Moncada, it would probably be best described…

This is all true and points to this being a perfectly competent standard edition car. Slapping the top-tier monster power badge on it is the issue, and saying they’re going to add more tiers above that isn’t a fix, it’s just confusing inflation like theater popcorn sizes.

I like it Kyree. I don’t love the base CT4 V-Sport as I dislike all the other manufacturers silly almost sporty versions as well.

I agree. This is stupid. This is what they should have done:

CT4 V-Sport — Semi-performance models, akin to the M340i, S4 and AMG C 43

It’s a weird thing to get all fetishy about...

It has sunk.

Mini Countryman enlarged 120%

Amazing.

How many transmissions, cylinder heads, radiators and expansion tanks has it had? I bet it’s had about a gazillion cup holders.
