You obviously haven’t been living in a communist system. It’s a top down society. Try talking to people from the former GDR, Soviet Union or some such place who are now in their 60's. They can still recite what the relevant central committee decided on certain matters - because this was force-fed down the line. Such

I guess the lesson should be to add another car build to survive the apocalypse to all the Chrysler-infested mayhem:

Now bastardizing Saab has reached new levels, per this Mini ad:

NP, I assume, but I’d rather spend the same amount of earmarked SAAB money on infinitely cooler pre-GM fare.

That’s actually an excellent proposition.

After we got our degrees, a friend of mine splashed out on a newer used 5 wagon in dark green with tan interior. It was so beautiful, it could make you cry.

Yes, found that a little further down.

TDI is proprietary Volkswagen. D, DTI etc is all the others, right?

Doner?

Volvo was forced to abandon the S4/F4 moniker on what became the S/V40, and the “Amazon” was a Kreidler-bike first - thus came Volvo’s three digit number scheme into being. There’s always been knifing about names and letters. Still, the X seems to be popular everywhere.

Awesome reaction by Mr Stark.

True.

Every little bit of info on Top Gear gets airtime...who’s getting low geared? How tiresome can it be, long before they finally air a new show, that has way too large shoes to fill?

I agree on the towing. Still, there should be room for a more efficient average.

Very consistent with the EPA rating - that is impressive! But 22 mpg isn’t that impressive. I’d expect at least 23.5 mpg out of diesel truck this size.

So, automakers flush with cash and looking for niches, should we expect more excessive shooting brakes and wildly impractical tiny trucks on the American market?

Needs more chrome, doors, and usability though.

Four (4) Bugatti posts on the front page right now.

I know a guy who is deeply entrenched into the 480 scene (all three of them know him). He owns a Turbo and keeps repeating that all the good cars are gone. The electronics are the worst part of these. And even though they are pretty on the outside, the clunky interior takes some getting used to.
