Porsche 911 and the Aston Martin Vantage are 2 more that come to mind.

I’m pleasantly surprised that it’s sooner than I thought. I thought for sure Ford was going to wait until the Detroit Auto show to reveal it based on the milestone timeline.

For Skittles, you could argue the German flavor would be Porsche PTS

Posting this here so people can find Mergio’s resurrection easier

Man, if only we could get the i30 N over in the states (would be called the Elantra GT N here). I’d totally jump on that over the nicer interior of the Mazda.

Looks like you’re doing well Andrew! You know, the glove really works. Kinda like driving gloves except for one hand.

That’s a neat stat. However, “entry level” does not necessarily mean “no options”. Even at the base trim level, there are plenty of options to add and I’d guess that the sale prices will be much closer to $70k rather than $60k. Will be neat to see how the car sells once it’s on the market though. 

As someone who has launched few vehicles, typically manufacturers like to launch high content vehicles first since those are the more complicated vehicles. That way, they can validate more parts on the vehicle than if it was a low content launch. 

It was in a neighborhood just east of the NC Museum of Art. Seemed like a Launch Edition too.

“totally objective and opinion based”

I’m very curious at how many of those $60k models will be in stock. The one Road and Track got was just under $90k and I feel like that will be closer to the average price of those than the $60k will be.

I’ve seen 1 Supra in Raleigh, NC but that’s it. However, I do live in SE Michigan, so seeing imports is going to be more rare than everywhere else too...

Oh a Mustang sedan (the true Fusion ST/RS) would be amazing! Sadly, I don’t see that happening at Ford with the current CUV/SUV/Truck love... :(

Well I can’t confirm either way, but it’s within tolerance of the Focus. Definitely not as tall as an Escape or Ecosport though

I’ve seen it in real life. It’s not that tall. I HATE the X “coupes” that BMW makes. I don’t hate this. 

See guys, like I said the other day, more hatchback-y than CUV-y ;)

One thing I’ve noticed that helps is the panoramic sunroof option. It really does open up the cabin.

It’s that grille and a) how overly big it is b) how it tucks in underneath the headlights like the Nissan Minivan. It’s a design aspect that I HATE with much passion. I’m fine with the back end though...

Oh yeah, I don’t like Edison either. My points were that if it wasn’t for the resurgence of Tesla’s research in the 90's, he’d still be stuck somewhere random in the history books and that’s about it.

Don’t know what you’re talking about ;)
