With the right negotiating, and everyone knows he's got the chops for it, Marchionne could feasibly be the next CEO we will all view with awe.

Hell, I had Volare' after about 3 seconds. HATE the show.

Not sure I'd watch this version, although I do partake in weekly epi's every Saturday. A little too news-like and dry. John Davis needs to have a sidekick who can trade off the narrative. Listening to him for 25 minutes gets a bit tiring, even when interspersed with Pat Goss and the other presenters. Still,

I was thinking it looked like a plastic model car. If the camera zooms out, you'll see some chunky fifth-grader's hand with a magnifying glass melting the crap out of his dad's old Revell car, that's been gathering dust in his basement the past 30 years.

I was actually pretty hopeful for a second. Seems to me, for the cost of tweaking an existing platform, it'd be easy to do- and profitable. Bronco, Ramcharger? I'll take two!

Smallish for an Aston Martin and reminiscent of a Disco Volante, in some ways. I'm not sure I like the dash layout. It's a bit busy.

Unbelievable! I lost count at 283, but I bet the count cracks 300.

You're right. The Wrangler is what made Jeep the brand that it is, BUT the Wrangler has always been the simple performer. For what you get, they are probably overpriced for the mall dweller anyway. Remember when the YJ came out in turquoise? It sat lower and looked like a sissy car. That's when the t-shirts came

I never once put the windshield down on my CJ, but I did try a couple of times. I think the hinges were bound-up, 'cuz I couldn't get it to budge.

Great synopsis, Andrew, but now I can't get that uglified Jeep out of my head. Truthfully, they need to worry less about the Wrangler and keep "fashioning" other CUV's to take over the world. Leave the Wrangler alone. A few improvements are expected, but I don't know of anyone, myself included, who ever complained

I'd have to suggest he suck it up and live with it for the two years. I'm not a fan of leases to begin with, but there are advantages to some people making use of them. Presuming the owner didn't just get a job where the BRZ is no longer a viable driving option, i.e., ferrying building materials to job sites, he

Not to be a Debbie Downer (because I really love that 707 HP Challenger), BUT...doesn't turbocharging shorten the life of your engine, or engine parts? This is someone else's opinion and I am just being Devil's advocate. Just wondering if this is really a good thing for most Joe's out there?

His best song. I can listen to this over and over.

Living here in Atlanta for nearly 20 years, and traveling to many large and medium cities, I can honestly say the drivers are no better, no worse. Traffic as a whole seems pretty terrible ALL THE TIME, except maybe in the wee hours of the morning, when all you have to dodge are deer.

1st Gear: If Tesla isn't even supposed to make money until, what, 2020, why would Apple want to buy it? This, from a recent article. I have to think that the likes of Toyota and GM/Ford/FCA would be dumping money into their own electric cars if they expected any return. Last I read, Marchionne was trying to

Sad. The seats look brand new. BUT, at least it's one with an automatic!

5.) Chevrolet HHR: The PT Cruiser WAS cool at one point. When it first came out, I saw a new PT on a lot which had in excess of a $3 grand premium added to it. I think it was going for $23-$24,000.

Wrangler competitor- what sets it apart is the convertible and removable doors.

Yeah, but these days, dependable is like saying she has a great personality!

Yeouch! Not exactly a rousing endorsement. I've not driven one, but there's no F/N way I'm spending 30 grand on one. Talk down about the Patriot's CVT (I use the autostick) all you want, but it only cost wifey around $15,000. Yes, my trax are headed back to the Jeep dealership.
