This, without a doubt, one of the ugliest new vehicles in the last decade. Truly, truly horrible looking. I really like BMW’s generally, but they need to fire their designer ASAP. It sounds like an interesting car in general, but why does it have to look so awful?  

Toyota must be just giddy about this. The RAV4 is an objectively better vehicle in almost ever metric. This is going to backfire on them. 

I like this. I wish more manufactures would make performance versions of their regular cars. 

Polestar could avoid all this trouble of confusing logos by just, you know, branding the cars as Volvos like they should have. Literally no one I know, even people who like cars, is aware of what a Polestar is, but they’re pretty familiar with Volvo! I’ll never understand this strategy.

A way for Genesis to avoid this and to arguably make for a better experience would be to adopt something approaching a European dealer model. Smaller dealerships that would be less costly to build (and upgrade) over time, lower overheads by not having to have such huge real estate and millions of dollars in flooring…

My coworker and I (both of whom sell cars) were discussing something like this the other idea, and if it is successful and profitable for manufactures, programs like this could spell the end of dealerships as we know them (something neither of us think is a bad thing- dealers suck).

Just further proof that trickle down economics is absolute nonsense based on little more than hopes and dreams and should be relegated to the dust bin of history. It is, and always has been, nothing more than an elaborate way to transfer wealth from governments and the working/middle class to the wealthiest,…

It looks not bad. Far better than their old design. Can’t wait for Infiniti to half-ass the new QX60's interior in typical Nissan fashion and have its lunch eaten by Acura for the next decade. 

I owned one of these for a few years. It was fun, but it definitely did not get “good mpg” even though I had the smaller 3.2L in mine.

Interior and exterior colours and wheels all look correct too.

Could it perhaps be this car?

Yup. No one ever believes me when I tell stories about customer disasters when I worked at VW. They’re nice to drive, but I wouldn’t want to own one past warranty. 

As someone who works for a dealership, it absolutely makes a difference. Fuck the dealer, trade it in! It’s the dealers job to do their due diligence on a trade in. Some do, but most don’t, so take advantage of that lazy sales manager. It’s not like he’s going to not try and take advantage of you because you were…

This sounds great, best of luck with the trip and hauling back all your race winnings. 

Pricing, how it drives, and the interior will determine whether this thing saves Infiniti or the brand goes in the toilet. When the QX50 launched it was heralded by Infiniti as a turnaround for the brand, but has been a massive flop because it drives quite awful and the interior has a horribly unintuitive infotainment…

If it weren’t for the CP price, this would be kind of appealing. A BMW X5 with an LS would be a lot more reliable and would have lots of cheap power add ons available too. 

I for one think this is great. It adds another short track, which NASCAR needs, and selfishly, it adds a short track that isn’t crazy far or expensive to get to for me. Plus, being near LA, it makes it easy to convince my girlfriend to go down for a race, because we can hit the beach and Disneyland all in the same go.…

Seems quite likely, but it also is rather worrying for the future of Alfa. For all the gusto they had at re-launch, the brand seems to be majorly flopping. Probably doesn’t help that my local dealer is extremely tiny, has about 6 cars in stock, and no one in the city seems to be aware that they exist at all. 

I don’t think it looks bad, just a bit bland, and I really do not understand coming out with an all new vehicle in a category Jeep hasn’t played in in decades, and then using the styling off the 10 year old Grand Cherokee. You’d think this would be a good opportunity to try out a different styling direction rather…

True, I didn’t think of those.
