Why wouldn’t the Macan have any right to handle as well as it does ?

That line is tired. It was kind of funny the first time, but it has not been in a very long time. We get it, it’s nice to drive. Just write it like that, it would be less annoying than reading once more that X crossover “handles way better than it has…

That second rule is bullshit. It’s less costly to bump into a Geo Metro than into a Rolls-Royce, but it’s not any less shitty.

People care about their car regardless of their economic value. I bet you there are loads of people who love their dented old Corollas more than some care about their new supercar.

I feel like the $1500 were for both the lady’s Silverado plus the man’s own vehicle. If it’s the Escalade that can be seen in the photo, it would also have been roughly $700 for that one, hence the 1500 total.

Too bad they put 1990's wheels on the OG, it completely messes the look up. Those wheels would look great on a 190E, they do not look good on a 300SL.

I starred you, but I don’t even think the PT Cruiser, cabrio or regular, is that ugly. It’s now an aged design, but I still dig it.

Also, I’d rather see more PT Cruiser cabrios and less Rav4s/CRVs/Escapes(Kugas)/Tiguans... on the roads.

Well, more like the rococo architecture of the automotive world I would think, but yeah, you’re right.

I strongly disagree with you. It is just not a good thing to rattle anyone. If you have a problem with what they’re doing, you should confront them yourself.

Denouncing someone to the police is shitty. It’s order of magnitudes shittier if it’s to have them deported in nazi camps obviously, but still, even denouncing…

... What are you doing here ?

I was going to star your post, because indeed preventing the asshole from merging into the lane does no good for anyone.

Then I stopped short when I read your second paragraph. Way to be an asshole yourself. Denouncing someone is not okay.
I wouldn’t have enjoyed being your neighbour during the war.

I’d say that the Pacifica Hybrid would be a better choice (roomier, same or better gas mileage, more practical, certainly cheaper) but I don’t know what the reliability has been like.
The old T&C were really solid, but after a 10 year run that was expected. I didn’t hear too many horror stories about the new ones, but…

Maybe he’s really into Nissans. I mean, some of us on here are into Smarts, Priuses or rustly old Jeeps. I wouldn’t judge what kind of car a fellow gearhead is into.

WTF ? How would you get that from the car someone drives ?
Would you think the same if they swapped their cars ?
That’s the dumbest comment I’ve read in a while.

To be precise, he did not rent the actual Versailles Palace, but the Grand Trianon, which is one of several smaller castles on the grounds of the legit palace.

I’d think the palace would be A LOT more expensive to rent, and even more if it’s during a time at which it should be opened to the public. Like another zero at…

It’s not really ugly, but certainly not beautiful.

On the other hand, compared with the rest of its segment, it’s pretty average looking.

I agree that it looks dated, but I’mma stop you right there with your second point : they hold their value extremely well.

To be fair, it’s not in the same market segment. The VW products competing with the Mirage (Space Star in Europe) are the Volkswagen UP, Seat Mii and Skoda Citigo.

A Polo is to a Mirage what a Passat is to a Jetta : it’s a larger, heavier, more comfortable car (as strange as it sounds to call a Polo “large, heavy and…

That’s not very fair. The Ford family has done much to help the jewish community and redeem themselves, and the people at VW can’t reasonably be taken for responsible of the political regime that ruled Germany when their company was created.

I mean, it would make more sense for your wife to not want a Ford or a GM…

The part in the second wedding-day commercial where one of the best men decorated the wrong car was low key funny though :

What he thought was a Buick was actually a Lexus. I chuckled.

Is the situation particularly bad at Toyota, or are every other automaker facing similar drops in sales ?

Because they prioritize volume over quality, but that has nothing to do with electric drivetrains.
