Same platform (P1). My car was pre-facelift (2005-2007) the car listed above is the facelift version (2008-2012). 

Zero tacked on and we got around $4000 off MSRP and 0% for 60 months on the Prius. The quote for the transmission was a complete replacement with a brand new unit since we had already attempted to repair the original one for over $1000 already and the shop wasn’t willing to risk failing again with a used or rebuilt…

How? The KBB value at the time for good condition was $6000 (and I definitely would not count a transmission on its death bed as good). 

I had a 2005 V50 T5 Auto from 2008 until 2014. It was a fun and practical car which worked fairly well during the length of it’s CPO warranty. However, it required PCV valve replaced twice, the TCU replaced, the Main ECU replaced (which was incorrectly soldered during replacement and required a return trip to repair).…

I lived in the Central West End in St Louis for 9 years and commuted into North St Louis City during that time and saw so many weird and wild driving maneuvers during that time.

In my 2013 Prius the lowest mileage I’ve ever seen was a long highway trip driving nearly the whole way 75-80 mph with a family of four and a trunk full of luggage and a rooftop box on top with non-LRR tire. You know what that was? 36 mpg.  Unless you are at Vmax, you will not get worse fuel economy in a Prius than an…

My mom drove a 6000 STE when I was growing up. We loved that beautiful, quirky, maroon thing.

Seeing Ecosports on the road causes me eye distress, and after getting a Trax (Premier trim) as a loaner I can attest that it is a miserable vehicle. I think the only reason they have [slightly] higher customer satisfaction in this case is the owners of them bought them as the lower-priced option compared to the C-HR…

Or, are these Reattas (Reatti?)

The Audi E-Tron GT and Taycan are not built on the PPE platform, they are built on the J1 platform. There have not been any PPE vehicles launched yet. Maybe some aspects of PPE or MSB are included in the J1 platform, but none have been built purely on a PPE platform.

Or even a Volkswagen ID.4 for more space and much cheaper than a Model Y.

I’ll take mine with a milk steak, boiled hard, and a side of your finest jelly beans, please.

Torch,

I had a 1998 2.2L auto and can confirm its level of acceleration.  It was my first car and met its end when someone attempted to turn right from the left turn lane and mashed every panel on the driver’s side.

1st and Reverse:

If you can find one with reasonably low miles I think the best choice would be a Toyota Matrix XR-S or Pontiac Vibe GT.  Enough room for taller people, reliable enough for daily driving and with 180 hp in a pretty light package you can’t get a better manual starter car, when your skills are honed you’ll still have a…

Based on the color and RPF1s I think our boy racer accidentally reenacted the wrong scene in F&F.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume that battery has little or no thermal management.  I can’t imagine a liquid cooled battery (like every BEV in the United States, save for the Nissan Leaf) being that easy to swap in.  And I think everyone here knows how well Leaf batteries maintain over a lifetime of charge cycles…

That’s a Lada chopping that window can do.

A clear indication Stellantis does not think the 4xe can make it to 14000 miles.
