Would love a saddle brown color that does not skew orange like other late model GM non-black or gray interiors. I really liked the Cinnamon and Black cloth interior on the Equinox, but of course GM discontinued it for 2020. They are so obsessed with offering the fewest, only top-selling color combos, to heck with customer choice anymore.

GM standard SEA OF BLACK. DEATH BLACK interiors, GM's specialty!

Just saw a new one this morning running errands, first I have seen in the wild. Sharp looking and green is very popular here in the greater Seattle Area. Agree, I think they checked all the right popular boxes of what this auto needed and while the engine is no rock star for power, it is enough to motivate the SUV to move.

Sucks that you can get the Black / Brown interior with any color other than the Atlantic Metallic and that has to have the White / Black interior. I agree GM needs to allow better interior color combos.

I have to say, I tested out 9 vehicles that day and the Telluride is the one that made the biggest impression on me.

REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE, WHAT A LOVE TRIANGLE!

That Ass

It's like a motorized scrubbing bubble ? ~

I forget which models had/have that gorgeous cocoa brown interiors. Why GM would ditch that for just black interiors is insane, especially down here in FL where the heat is rather brutal and humid. Why does GM not have any variety at all these days? Are they trying to repel potential customers?

Look how much nicer finished the Kia Sorento load area is, compared to the Acadia. GM, WTH has happened to you?

The Nappa leather is just not available in certain colors. Not much, if anything.

This blows away an Acadia Denali. I had one as a rental just a week after the Kia

Kia definitely checked off the popularity box because I am seeing more and more of them around here (not sure what that means nationally though).

Black and blue i3 with a white eagle decal on the hood, 2" wide bright green stripes down the side, and single-tone red flame decals on the doors, all unprofessionally applied.

They do look good stock without the cartoonish mods.

Love the '49-'51 Mercury, if it is unmolested. In green.

I like the exterior color of that XT4, but the interior looks awfully drab and colorless.

(Forever altered Mercury on the psychiatrist's couch) Psychiatrist: "Show me on the 1/24 scale model where the bad man touched you?" (Mercury, with unsteady hand, slowly points to model's roof. A tear is pinched from a blinking eye. Psychiatrist casts a knowing, concerned glance. A breakthrough is achieved)

Windows remind me of the bunker looking Camaro.

Of course it's different; it's an EV. No one has even suggested they make a profit on building an EV, I wonder if it's possible even with sharing the building of one over 2 companies. Either the price is low enough it gains some sort of measurable volume, or it's priced to the moon and only a few hundred sell. I think at this point at least 4 or 5 companies need to get involved on engineering one platform and splitting the cost, then each having a 'snap on' plastic body with their own grille.

i do respect the choice aspect here. But I think to omit even the option of the safety equipment on the base trim for something that is standard on Kias, is quite GM like and frustrating as hell. GM in general. I would love a Regal TourX wagon. But the TourX with cloth, you can't get heated seats on as an option. Not a big deal really except that often the TourX in cloth is even stickering at 37k on the lot, and I'm sorry, a 37k MSRP vehicle. Especially a mid lux brand like buick....Dual Zone climate and heated seats should be in that vehicle at 37,000. And a nicer seat material than ratty cloth that even Suzuki wouldn't put in their cars. On the Silverado they sell so many of them they can afford to have so many different configurations. On the XT4, the heated seats option covers the front and rear seats. Now that i like as Cadillac doing something in line with luxury. Both rows. I've had blind spot monitor on both my cars now and have gotten used to it to 'assist' me in checking my blind spot better. It does IMO save me some close calls, it's a feature I absolutely want to have. It's most useful function is when you are passing it helps you to be more confident in the space you have before you pull back in front of someone. I think there are some aftermarket blind spot systems out there. But back to my point, Cadillacs IMO ought to have them, at least available on every trim. I think standard, and maybe able to be disabled by the user if desired.

well i have an unexpected offer from a retailer for a screaming good deal on an XT4 lease, (Its an event vehicle, really its like, Malibu or XT4 kind of deal). I was getting jazzed up about it but, the Base trim level ont he XT4 does not have blind spot monitor / cross traffic alert available, even as an option. This is stuff I feel should be standard on a Cadillac. At least this particular XT4 has the heated seat option. Heated seats should be standard on any Cadillac IMO. I turned down an absolutely sick good deal on a lightly used Regal Sportback Essence recently because it did not have that feature on that particular vehicle as well. Absolutely and completely irritating GM does this stuff. No wonder their vehicles sit on lots forever.

Euro- I don't know it. Thought maybe Autobianchi, but no. EDIT :: It's a nissan figaro, and it came out in 1991.

whats up everyone, just thought id share my instrument panel ive been working on for a while... in my nova i got tired of the boring gas guage/ speedo combo, you know, the looooong horizontal speedo..... i had an oil/water/volt and a small tach under the dash but it got pretty annoying any cluttered. It seemed my only option was the Covans dash, witch i didnt like the look/fitment of at all. since my cluster was pretty beat, i started with another i got off ebay from a 74 apollo..(i dig the wood panel stickers/fasten seat belt light) The "chrome" outlines were kinda trashed so i wound up repainting the whole bezel with VHT interior paint, you can see it well later The next step was to cut up a piece of thin steel to fit the bezel, drill the mounting wholes and play around with how i wanted the guages... i know, the paper guages look VERY professional:rolleyes: Next was to break out the hole saws and start drilling! contrary to my normal ways, i measured carefully Me on the bedroom floor wiring all the guages! Finished project! painted both the guage plate and bezel satin black, and fitted LEDs for turn signals, brights, and an oil pressure warning light i know its tight fitting all of them into the long skinny bezel, but im very happy with the results.... when installed, the tops of the GAS and VOLT guages require a bit of strain to see, but you can still see the bottom 3/4s to get an idea of where the needles at.... the temp/ oil, being more crucial, are completley visible:) another cool detail is the shift light hidden behind the fasten seat belt light! much better then smashing my knees on the under dash cluster:D

thanks camino..... between the fire dept, full time college classes and working 30-40 hours a week at the speed shop, squeezing in time with my girlfriend and trying to work on the nova its been hectic!

Good work makes for a clean dash w/o the under-dash cluster.

Bluuuu, that is the funniest thing ever LMAO...'The Tom Cruise'...hilarious. Yes this bike is very sexy....all those thick tubes and exhaust pipes and such all in some sort of meandering orgy. Damn, this bike is hot. You know how they say buying a hot sexy car is an appendage extender, well this is right between a guy's legs.

Yes, they are in the Barra Erra

I think the word you are looking for is DGAF. As in GM DGAF about certain details while other automakers do.
