I would bet that the producer of Volvo’s motor is a domestic Chinese manufacturer. I also wouldn’t be surprised if it is one that Geely has a stake in.

The guy is worth OVER $300,000,000. That’s in addition to his many other money making ventures outside of an F1 cockpit. Do you really think his motivation is to score a bigger paycheck? The guy is in the catbird seat with options up the wazoo; he’s set for life and has NOTHING to prove. He can literally do whatever…

Meanwhile I bought the most stripped down GTI they ever made to avoid being stuck with a fucking sunroof. Sunroof is just a way of asking for water to eventually be in your car. Plus less headroom, added weight, etc. If I want the fresh air I’ll take my Miata out. 

We talk each other’s ears off and I at least drink waaaay too much coffee. I’ve made a couple of new friends there already.

I agree. This is outstanding and would look great today. If Scion were still around, I’d say this would fit right in as the xE.

So DeTomaso says it’ll restore the restore the romance, beauty, passion and elegance? I didn’t see any mention of reliability or durability though.

I would gladly give up hp and cylinders when it means the weight is reduced drastically.

The 4C is ugly too—there, I said it. Put that pinched, beaky face on a car from literally any other brand and tell me you’d find it beautiful. It looks like a goddam parrot fish.

I think I saw the team at Pep Boys for the 4-for-$99 special.

There are no reasons dealers need to be privately owned. There is no reason companies like Ford would not have factory stores with inventory, just like Apple has a factory store with inventory. The likely hood is less movement on negotiating but I imagine the market would dictate discounts based on inventory and…

Tesla stores do all of those things besides have tons of inventory, though they have a few for test drives.

Literally zero people disagree with you.

The only reason dealers still exist is because they lobby to exist.

The radiator is in the back, and the ducts on the rear doors duct air through the radiator and out through the big hole in what used to be the trunk lid. This is pretty common in rallycross and drift cars, for the reasons you might expect:

“We’ve got new generations of the Mercedes-BenzGLS, Mercedes GLA, Nissan Rogue and Ford Explorer, in addition to entirely new cars like the Jeep Grand Wagoneer, Genesis GV80 and Ford Bronco, so a new fourth-generation Acura MDX arrives in the face of plentiful competition.”

They won’t but I’m pretty sure protocol for Covid deaths is you go in one of the mass plague graves right? No one is going to risk contamination by cutting you open. It’s bag and tagged and in the ground as quick as possible

To be fair, Cain was still tweeting after he died, so he must be feeling pretty good.

I’m not entirely convinced you’d be able to tell the difference if the drugs were causing the psychotic break.  

I really don’t see why Subaru can’t sell this with a twin turbo v8 and DCT for $21k base. I mean, I’d keep my 2009 kia forte but still, this needs to be an option. /s

It’s also a much bigger, heavier car.
