I looked at a Golf when they finally got the 1.4T. It was an amazing car but they were charging GTI money for it due to the interest rates and incentives compared to the GTI, they were never going to sell being uncompetitively priced compared to the corollas and civics of the world.

I got a QOTD for you guys to use. Most fun hybrids. I’m morbidly curious what people come up with besides the obvious CRZ and 330e answers.

The Solstice. Bring it back as a Corvette sub-model. Corvette is now mid-engined, the Camaro is going electric. This is the perfect time to bring back a Miata/86/BRZ fighter.

GM has it for a lot of their loaded models now.

You know, as long as they make an SRT version of it, I’m okay with this.

Yep, I’ve noticed it’s an option on a lot if not most of GM products now

My favorite part is the website looks like it’s from 1998. I’ve seen geocities sites look better.

The tallest Sequoia in the world is named Hyperion. The Sequoia Hyperion would sell like hotcakes

The Avalon also has heated rear seats which isn’t even an option on the Lexus ES, it’s crazy.

The Ecosport is real headscratcher especially because the Puma exists in other markets and is genuinely a better sub-compact CUV in every metric

It suffered most from being the middle child. People that want more than a Camry were usually willing to jump to the Lexus. I’ll have to keep my eye out on the used market for one now, I really loved that Cognac interior.

The ES already sucked up the GS slot in the lexus lineup. The Avalon was the middle child between the Camry and the ES, that was its only real flaw

It is shocking how much more the Avalon is compared to the Camry. It’s a bit bigger but it does have better features. Maybe we’ll get a Camry Limited and Touring to make up for it

Crap, I was going to get one next year or when ever the market went back to normal. The limited hybrid trim is a Lexus at a discount. Heated rear seats, power front seats (driver and passenger) and 43 mpg in a spacious cabin.

Totalled simply means it costs more to repair the car than the car is worth. 

My man! Getting a red on red!! If I was in the market for a car a red on red Camry is exactly what I’d get!

Is that the going rate for a Buick Electra in that kind of condition? Because that sounds like a steal if it runs! I’m no classic car guy but for under $9k I would be!

Right, the engineering a certifications of the new design is where the money goes. they aren’t going to cancel it like this when they can just sell it for a few more years to recoup the engineering costs

Seems silly to do a major lifecycle refresh to simply cancel it the following model year. This doesn’t seem to make sense.
