But I am not talking about buying a Ghibli. I am saying they should have the put the base 3.0TT from the Ghibli in order to have a more performance oriented level without buying the Quad.

Duh. We all know that. I said if they used the 3.0TT from the Maserati Ghibli.

I like the look of these, if only they offered it with the same engine 3.0TT as the Maserati Ghibli, then it would be a much better car/value.

I don’t know. But I expected that a website about automotive would at least be related to that. I guess that’s too much to ask. Especially based on your comment.

Funny how an article about traffic at a restaurant gets turned into a political disagreement in the discussion/comments section

This. They have stepped up their game so much in the past 10 years that they can hardly be considered a “cheap” car in terms of the quality.

I would agree that most Germans are responsible and they definitely maintain their cars much better than we do in the USA. They have mandatory safety inspections and such to make sure an ill-equipped car won’t be driving around at all, especially at Autobahn speeds.

It would be interesting if GM was to do something and punish the dealers with exorbitant markups.

Best/First performance mod: Tires

In regards to the wrong engine, the saying goes:

The answer is New Mexico, especially as many have said. Cool Colors and such. But now they have the coolest plate ever with Peppers on it.

Gen 1 SC > Gen 2 SC

As someone who doesn’t like BMW’s in the slightest, I would agree that they are overrated. Styling and handling were the only positives they had.

Apparently the tune isn’t out yet for the XT, but they are releasing it this fall. They already have one for the same engine/trans ascent and people seem to dig it.

I’m not saying that its only the HP/TQ that will make the biggest difference. Weight will also play in on this, but more on that later.

Well that’s where the friends at COBB come into play, to help it feel better all around

Where do you see that the 2021 Supra only makes 350/409 on a dyno? Burger motorsports (who are the kings of BMW I6 tuning) dyno’d a stock 2021 Z4 at 399HP and 409TQ at the wheels.

I’ve heard that the CVT coupled with one of the turbo engines isn’t nearly as bad as other CVT’s available. Gotta make a trade off somewhere. Sadly no one makes the perfect manual turbo wagon anymore.

Nothing is perfect, so you gotta make some tradeoffs. The CVT in Subaru’s with the turbo engine isn’t nearly as bad as other CVTs on the market.

I saw a picture of a lowered 2020 outback xt on google and it peaked my interest.
