Are you referring to the 2012 D.C. Auto Show? I know that I have interior shots of that car; I think that car was from the 2012 show since those pics aren't on my computer alongside the ones that I have of the 2013 and 2014 shows. People were lining up to get into and out of the FR-S despite the rope, as it was…
Right, I was just wondering if this was an appearance package or a regular/AMG in-betweener model. I can see that it's not a full-on AMG, but I was curious about the "AMG" that was randomly thrown into the name without "Mercedes-AMG", the 2-digit nomenclature, and so on.
The "AMG" in there just denotes an AMG appearance package, right?
2015 STI. AWD, awesomely silly rear wing that earns you weird looks, and you could maybe take it to auto-x/rally-x events instead of just a dragstrip; there are also Subaru meets you could write about attending. Plus, since it's an STI, I'm pretty sure it's got decent resale value unless the market for these has…
They could probably make it work.
Given how rebadged Opels have found their way into Buick's lineup, we probably could say that there are Buicks in Holden's lineup if they rebadge those same Opels as Holdens a few years down the line. I think there's definitely a place for the VF in Buick's product line, even if the LaCrosse is more efficient and can…
Back in January, while the SS still lacked a 6-speed manual and Magnetic Ride Control, I began to write a piece on how the USDM VF sedan should've been a Buick; the piece mostly focuses on offering a wider range of models (i.e. rebadging the HSV GTS to create an ass-kicking, publicity-netting halo car for the brand,…
Agreed. I like the bowtie in general, but it doesn't look all that good on the SS; the round badges on all of the Commodore variants look way better IMO.
I find the grille to be strikingly similar to that of the Rapide, but I like the overall look of the Prologue.
How is the S63 AMG Coupe you posted a direct competitor to the M3/M4?
The Civic Si isn't the Type R that a lot of folks - including me - want, but the visual updates that it's gotten (the coupe's new corporate grille and taillights, the sedan's even better-looking taillights and slightly-tweaked front fascia, and the 2014 MY wheels on both models) have vastly improved its look IMO.…
That's a damn shame as far as the brown color getting axed - there's a brown Signature Series that I sometimes see, and it looks fantastic.
There's not too much new with the base model, with the 3.6-liter V6 – shared across the VAG line-up – still chugging along with 300 horsepower, and huffing and puffing to hit 60 MPH in 7.7 seconds (7.6 with the optional Sport Chrono pack). But for 2015, Porsche is dropping the manual option in favor of the eight-speed…
I never listened to <i>Car Talk</i> that often prior to the hosts' retirement, but they seemed to be pretty nice guys going by the segments that I have listened to.
There are several Silvia variations, heavily modified, in the blocks around my apartment. However, this is arguably the cleanest example I have ever seen. I did get a brief chance to look inside, but the vehicle is parked across from a public park. While photographing vehicles in open parking lots is not illegal in…
How about the Subaru Impreza Casa Blanca? I think it was just styled to look like an older car in general, though - it's not harking back to any car in particular AFAIK.
I see you, Mr. Junior Executive. You didn't just seal the deal, you crushed that shit. And now, after reading all the nice things we said about it, you have your eye on a Jaguar F-Type to get your speed fix once your 18-hour workday is done. I'm here to tell you to forget the F-Type; buy this Ferrari Enzo engine…
According to a new book by former Ford PR head Jason Vines, the company bugged his phone and otherwise ran around in a Nixon-like state of Paranoia with Bill Ford, Jr. in the role of the former President.
