I once rented a Mazda2 and every time I left the house to jump in it I thought someone stole half my car. I was worried to take it back to Hertz thinking I may have lost a few feet of its body.

The Accord Crosstour. Why do that to the Accord name, Honda?

Cars I have purchased or leased. I have owned or shared others. $160k

CX-9 seems like a good choice but if they want to push toward the top end of their budget could shoot for the X5 xDrive45e. Just under $60k for the base model after the the tax credit.

i remember when autonomous driving was talked about in the 90s it was about magnetic highways systems and the focus was on safety over convenience or marketing. Believe that was brought up again a few years ago.

I’m not sure a non-celebrity crash would lead to press conferences and public statements. I’m sure many aspects of this situation would have been handled differently. 

M5 or X5 M

Shouldn’t the interior be less minimalistic and more customizable to suit the owner’s interests since they’ll be focused more on comfort than on driving? 

The Away x M07s are on sale right now for $174 (down from $249) 

are they $150 better than Jabra 75s?

I have yet to see a GV80 in the wild. To be fair I only leave the house about twice a week but still thought I would see a few. We bought a new car in that class recently and I didn’t give serious consideration to looking at the GV80. It’s excellent on paper but it’s just a little to pretty for me. A bit overly…

These new BMW front ends actually look good and people need to get over it.

Congrats on your immense wealth

Haven’t looked too closely at it yet but isn’t that the goal of bmw’s partnership with EvGo?

They are announcing this tomorrow: https://www.bmwusa.com/concept-vehicles/concept-i4.html

Main St. Pick one.

How about Taurus? Either to return as a Ford or to be reborn as Lamborghini hot hatch.

just me or does the side profile sort of look like the Ford Taurus when the Taurus got huge earlier this century?

it definitely does look more modern today compared to its contemporaries but it still is a bit of a hog. i wonder if they hadn’t bangled their way through the early 2000s if they would have ended up in the same place in terms of current designs - which i like quite a bit aside from the even numbered SAVs.

Conqueror or imperialist
