  1. SUV's will always help to bring a Luxury makers age down. My feeling is that eventually the mass produced FWD appliances that MB and BMW are making will cause people to step back and say WOW, this is no different than a Chevy, Ford or Toyota. Bland cars and boring rides. I saw yesterday a 128I or I128 BMW convertible and my wife asked me what the heck that ugly car was. I explained it to her and she said she would rather drive a Chevy or Dodge over that ugly auto. Yet even with that, the old guy driving it took off up the road fast as some younger kids were buzzing by in their tuned out asian cars and when we finally got up north on the freeway he was pulled over by the police. So I guess it does not matter which level of BMW you drive, they all are assholes
  2. very cool, working like a Rock!
  3. I saw my first Ram EcoDiesel today. Very cool.
  4. Your right the "Edgar" walking skin guy. That scene was funny and the car looks just like him in that scene. You too can drive an Edgar Skin Auto!
  5. The Chevy Trax in Mocca with the brown interior is just lovely, nice and warm.
  6. Cadillac Leadership and Marketing need to better explain this stupid CT / XT crap to the world. Escalade will stay but they are flushing away ATS, CTX, XTS history and totally ignoring the name history they have that would do much better. Truth be told, XT, ST, etc is what one would expect out of concept auto's. Names are where it should be at!
  7. SMK, While this story covers a wide range of auto's, BMW had 2 cars in it and MB had none and yet the winner as best driving cars was a Chevy Z28! How does German engineering beat American every time in your mind when independent testing shows America can build ultimate driving cars. http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/autosbdc/2014-motor-trends-best-drivers-car/ar-BB5Jkrz It beat Porsche, Fiat, Nissan, etc. Long list of auto's that have always been touted as superior but failed to live up to the hype.
  8. Wonder if it could fit the Katech engineered, sold by Motus V4. http://motusmotorcycles.com/american-v4
  9. This will build customer good will as people love to see a company proactively be responsible.
  10. Minor issues, glad that GM is proactive in making sure their customers are safe in the auto's they drive!
  11. Diesel would be awesome, Put in the 2.9L Duramax Diesel and let the Buggers Fly!
  12. Could haul some manure, boxs, etc maybe a fold up bike.
  13. So since no real driver can ever reproduce the actual states given for a car, guess this can at best in real world driving get 10 miles of pure electric driving. What a joke.
  14. Guess I have become dulled to the point of boredom, as I see no difference in this car to what Audi already has out.
  15. Cute bugger, I can see this as a popular auto for young people and for those wanting a small solid commuter auto especially with AWD.
  16. Good Luck KnightFan, I know it is always hard to release things you have had around for a long time.
  17. If you remove the Mazda 6 and CX-5 Mazda is really on decline. False numbers as they need to correct their family of auto's to keep sales growth rather than just focus on 1 or 2 auto's.
  18. VW has never understood the American Public. They still think it is the 40's with the peoples car. Out of Touch with Reality or we are just the ugly step child's market.
  19. Hate to burst peoples bubbles, but society over all has moved away from 2 door coupes and the Millennial crowd wants their social networking and friends with them in a car. As such, the coupe crowd is a very small minority world wide and as the Socialist idiots push their agenda for everyone on mass transit and bicycles, We will see people stay with 4 doors and suv's/cuv's. I really expect the last of 2 door coupes to be the Camero, Mustang, Challenger. Anything else will be stupid 2 door eco box's like the over priced turd SmartCar. Even Toyota's version of that did not last. Mini has loosing sales of their 2 door version also.
  20. I have come to really enjoy clean calipers that are not rusty. Makes a car look that much better and people notice it as looking nice but can not always put their finger on it. The devil is in the Details as they say. Look forward to seeing pictures.
  21. I understand that resto jobs are not always easy or cheap but I feel some places like the White Post Restorations just wants to ripe people off. Sad as I would hope for a fair profit they would want to drive to help keep quality old auto's around. Best of luck to you balthazar.
  22. Outstanding write up, learned allot. and Love the interior, far better than most cars out there especially the crazy floating look of the Nav found on the German brands. Question, did they say why they had to drop the HP? Was it due to the AWD system? Do you know if you can reprogram it to capture the additional HP and still get the Torque at the lower RPM level? I can see this car as getting Tuners excited and after markets building options for it. Nice Job, Thank you
