No roof I can handle, but can I at least have a little bit of a windscreen? Just enough so that I don’t need to wear a full-face helmet just to go for a Sunday drive?

Thank goodness Porsche doesn’t make trucks. The badge delete option would be $1,500 per vehicle. 

I’d like Mercedes to step slightly away from the “luxury” side of things and right into “high quality” what I perceive they used to be.

#MeToo. This is what depresses me about electric cars: The way the manufacturers insist on giving them odd designs and/or deficiencies in pretty basic things ICE cars had nailed down a long, long time ago. I just want a plain car that can handle plain car things, like letting adults sit comfortably in the back seat…

Sounds like a nice drive. Did he take the top off?

The new Lexus J201, for when you can’t decide if you’re a 56 year old dentist, or a 28 year old overlander bro. 

That was my conclusion as well.  If you can get one of those, thats the sweet spot. 

Better solution: Call it the Cross Country Sport, jack the price up by $5,000, say the lower ride height is due to sport reasons, sell it to suckers.

Except it is different than fast cars that don’t see the track, because you can still enjoy a bit spirited driving in those super cars around town.

For a short time, Jag boasted a power advantage over the E400 and the Audi didn’t really have a competitor unless you counted the smaller A4 allroad. But with the E450 EQ and the A6 allroad being offered for 2021 starting in the $60K range the sportbrake is way outclassed.

Why spend 70k on a brand new XF Sportbrake when you can spend under $50k on a brand new 2 year old XF Sportbrake 😂

Those new 2018 leftovers are kinda tempting, too.  $49k for a $75k MSRP car, and the warranty starts when you buy it.

I forgot about that but they’re more than a few around where I live. Where I have never seen a Jaguar XF Sportbrake.

Sure, but at that point, what incentive do manufacturers have to build the car to US standards if they’re only going to get 10 orders a year?

Regular V90s are special order only which is really what they should do with all wagons.

Well, the Volvo V90 keeps plugging along. I am surprised that Volvo USA hasn’t pulled the V90 when the V90 cross country is available.

Your car is indeed sad.

Well, with the realization that of a lot of commuting to an office could be replaced with commuting to the “home office,” I think that the commuter econobox is now knock-knock-knocking on heaven’s door-or. People seem to be more gravitating towards fun cars. Like Jeeps, Broncos, offroady trucks and crossovers. Maybe…

Is a Boxster really a luxury sports car though?

Thanks for your insight, Brooklyn. We’ll be just fine out here.
