I’d love to go NP on this, but I just can’t. Fantastic little car with a strong cult following, and a manual to boot. Looks super clean, too.

So yes, that one specific crossover compared poorly to your wagon, but many of your complaints here are model-specific. If you wanted a CUV badly enough you could find one that would address literally all of these issues.

Neutral: Crossovers are wagons with a high H-point. That’s all.

Gotta reluctantly go CP. Lovely car, and I’m a 928 fan, but it’s not really a collectible. And the leather’s good but clearly showing signs of age and use.

Business Class can be somewhat cost-effective, when you consider the perks of a free checked bag, decent dinner, and paid food/drinks in the lounge before takeoff.

I wouldn’t buy it, but original DMC-12s are rare and yes, this is eminently collectible. On that basis, NP.

I, too, am a fairly happy owner of a ‘15 Frontier Pro-4X, which I traded my F150 in for after getting it stuck one time too many.

A very current reminder of Syd Mead’s influence is the phenomenal concept art we see under the closing credits of The Mandalorian on Disney+. While Mead did not do them, they’re clearly in his style.

Common error: you’re taking your own requirements and applying them to everyone.

I completely believe that this car isn’t right for you. Maybe no current EV will meet your requirement, and that’s fine, honestly. But if there’s a market for this why would you begrudge those for whom this would work?

A few years ago I would have agreed unconditionally, but there’s something elemental to the 130 GT that seems more timeless somehow.

Not completely nuts about the front-end styling myself, but it’s not enough to put me off what looks to be a solid product. I’d take this over the Cybertruck.

One of Ford’s best designs of the ‘60s, right up there with the slab-sided Lincoln Continental. This appears to be an excellent unrestored example.

Corvette isn’t a “sports car”. It’s a GT.

Believe it or not, the point of NPOCP isn’t “would I buy it?”, it’s “is the seller in touch with reality?”

Some of us actually want a cruiser. This is a nice one.

Oh, that’s right. But Toyota DID get a lot of mileage out of the previous platform.

The price is high, but... not stupid high.

What automatic did you drive? The 1st gen was only available with the stick (which likely hurt sales).

FCA still makes the Dodge Grand Caravan even though it was ostensibly “replaced” years ago by the Pacifica. I think that’s the kind of approach you’re talking about here.

I’m confused. Are the batteries only charged by the engine? Or can an owner plug it in?
