GM's management is SCREWED UP as always. They make good cars now but the execs are still cancerous.

I heard of them getting $25,000 markups. I think the Stingray deserves to be more expensive. It's worth it.

1200 cars you say?

Yep, a German sports sedan crusher. Revisionist premium brand sports sedan (Q50, ATS, IS) smacker. Wagon form.

Your move Chevy! The Camaro's European offer is PITIFUL (only SS version at twice the cost, no V6 or ZL1), Corvette is nil.

True I presented a stereotypical view, but it's hardly relevant how new and Saabey it was back in 2002, the thing is it was made in 2011 and tried to compete with a 3-Series. Laughably.

That's great, a 2002 design riding on an old Vectra platform, just amazing! GREAT SUCCESS. Or is it suckcess?

I know right?

Crack pipe, I'd never drop that kinda money on something technologically so old. An E500 Coupe with some upgrades would be much better.

So the worst problem of a company making overpriced rebadges and FWD luxo barges (and firmly with Acura in the non-RWD fake superficial premium brand lame sore loser camp), is the NAMES?

Prices should drop though about a year or two into it right?

I'm thinking a light 2.0TFSI with 300hp with tranny from an A4 for longitudinal placement and stuff like that. Yep. Should do fine.

"Coupe" means "cut" in French, so shorter, with a 'cut' rear. No mention of two doors.

Every pack of condoms has detailed instructions on how to put them on.

I prefer the more natural and 'old', gender neutral "they"

Ferrari V8s are an ANNOYING sound. They sound like two eager four-bangers trying to outwank each other and dig their way to the other cylinder bank or something. V12s are similar.

The CLA is the new X-Type - cues from big RWD cars projected on a transverse-engined car.

Rear lights lifted from a Fiat Croma seem odd but I'll get used to them (like the -Hyundai ones on the Cayenne). Porsche seems to have a lot of downmarket inspirations (so does Mercedes, B-Class taillights look Opel Meriva-inspired), nothing wrong with that since cheap cars also have world class designers. Think of it…

Not an MPV. It's a van with windows.

Ford Mondeo (Fusion) with 1.0 EcoBoost.
