I mean there’s nothing wrong with it, but it’s way too new to seem special no matter what the pedigree. At this point it’s just a very low production used car. Put it in storage for 40 years and you might have something, but not a mere 13 years later.

4th gear - Isn’t Reuter’s being a tad dramatic calling 5% a “steep” drop in demand?

I wonder how many of these will be crashed before the first payment as owners stare into the grand expanse of a dashboard. Like everything else Cadillac is doing right now, the front end is tacky AF.

This will either mean coupe in the sense German brands idiotically misuse the term (fastback SUV, the answer to a question absolutely no one asked), or it will be some crapulent crossover abomination that has faux rear doors with the handles hidden in the pillars.

Dammit all to hell, we need to make some serious changes to the animal cruelty laws, in nearly every state they are preposterously next to nothing, just like this one.

Reveals so far ahead of production have either not gone well or been downright catastrophic for these high-end EVs, and all three of these are damn good designs, not something that looks like a 13-year-old’s study hall notebook doodle.

It would be just dandy as basic transportation for someone on a budget that doesn’t want a rust bucket, but mercy these were homely beasts. NP.

You would spend the asking price in repairs during the first year of ownership. ND.

If they define speeding reasonably (zero tolerance in school zones, hospitals, or residential, but maybe more than +10 mph at interstate speeds), but six is idiotic. Serial speeders should not get five free passes. Two at most, with the limiter installed upon instance three.

One minor adjustment...

You can count on one hand how many cars from 1991 look just as good now as they did then and have fingers left over, but this is sure one of them.

Yeah, I don’t think it’s the Corvair. The Corvair looks nice enough it could pass as a running vehicle if all that other ---t was gone.

Except gas taxes penalize everyone. Steep initial sales taxes and registrations fees are the way to go.

Took damned long enough.

Driving through the mountains in a full-size, 3-row 1980 Dodge van that’s hydroplaning in the interstate fast lane doing a slow but steady drift into the berm next to the very deep ditch separating the north and southbound lanes. Probably more frozen in terror than hero, but I maintained a death-grip on the bus size…

1st gear and 2nd gear are two sides of the same coin, Toyota and Lexus (with the exception of the new Prius) are making atrociously ugly vehicles, while Hyundai and KIA are killing it from a design standpoint.

True, the middle class has been all but squeezed out of existence, but most brands selling in the US simply have chosen to not bother with affordable EVs, focusing on the wealthy and affluent.

Self-serve food samples sounds revoltingly unhygienic, and way too many sickos will do gross stuff to the food.

Okay, this is horrible, but I how did it even get this far?

Oh. Hell. No.
