Thank you for conveying my thoughts. I’d even settle for an n/a manual with awd, but if we’re making requests, then manual and awd in every trim level.

Okay. But, on the other hand, how do we know that’s not simply because your a serial killer? Think about it.
The car still rides at its stock height for daily driving, but drops to an aggressive stance when Sampson wants to show it off.
I’m so glad they took a picture of the front so they’ll remember what it looked like after they attempt to drive it out of that parking garage, and then have to drive it for the next two months looking totally trashed.
Holy shit. Never knew that. And I certainly never thought I’d learn it on Jalopnik!
This is a fleeting issue. In my experience, after about a year or so, it will no longer catch fire (certainly not twice in one day), and likely will only get hot once a month or so.
I never thought I’d find a Fiero Ferrari attractive, but by comparison to this nightmare, wow, it’s a breath of fresh air.
You see, this confuses the hell out of me. I disagree that saying “[t]he Corolla is right for you” sounds like there’s only one copy of the Corolla out there. Rather, when I hear it, it’s just saying (quite correctly) that the Corolla model is right for you. (As an aside, I agree that “the” is probably better than “a,”…
Agreed. Moreover, all of these proposed explanations that a company doing this wants to convey that there is only one Accord, etc., make no sense to me. How is saying the Accord somehow inconsistent with that? On the contrary, to me, adding the “the” makes it clear that we’re all talking about the one and only true…
And, I guess, to mention the other side of that coin — how many people who actually do identify as liberal and/or an environmentalist actually want to buy a pickup (and potentially be mistaken for a “conservative”)?
Agreed. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but, yes, for me it’s particularly in the side view. Reminds me a bit of the love child between a 370Z and a Maxima.
“If only there were an astronomically expensive two-seat v12 station wagon on the market” . . . said nobody, ever.
Huh?
Kickass Jeep.
The million dollar question — how many pickup buyers want the modest fuel savings or 0-60 time enough to be willing to be mistaken for “liberal environmentalists?”
Hot take: the only topic that can reliably generate as much commentary as a winter tires vs. AWD article is an article about a Mustang driver losing control leaving a C&C meet.
I’ve never really thought it through, but if the type of engine stays the same, why would moving it to the back (middle) make it that much more expensive? I could see it being a bit harder to assemble, but can’t quite figure out why it would be an increase of almost 66%. What am I missing?
Yes, exactly. The flares are embarassingly bad. On top of that, while I love the color combo (and almost got an orient blue 2004 E46 wagon about ten years ago), I can tell you that the tan leather in these guys just doesn’t age well at all. It’s soft enough that it wrinkles and gets grimy, and yet can’t withstand the…
Reminds me a bit of a Touareg (just not as good looking). I guess that is a given with the shared MLB platform, but it’s not what I’d want people thinking if I was dropping $160k or more on one.
