  1. This will be a mess for them. We all know that small quantity items have higher costs and support will also be a nightmare. MB will pay for this mess as the dilution of the AMG brand is going to happen. They need to learn from GM, Ford and Chrysler about not diluting a brand. AMG is going to become a hag.
  2. The kids were probably thinking about how to put it on blocks and steal the wheels.
  3. Grow it back, I actually like you with longer hair. Then maybe if it was cut business white collar short it might be good too. I like you also better on the bike you are thinking about sneaking out than the BMW.
  4. Plan is to refurbish my daughters 99 Durango suspension and possibly convert it to run on CNG. Plan to replace complete exhaust system on 94 suburban to go quiet again. Wife hates the 3" straight pipes with Muffler tips. Very load inside under hard acceleration. Detail inside and out all my auto's this spring. But will start on those that do not go up the mountain as it is still ski season.
  5. Bad News: Your Ex used the stored sperm to nock herself up and is now asking for child support when the baby is born.
  6. This is a great story, about time CNG got some positive press. I think more and more fleets will change and as stations get built out then we will see more and more demand as people decide that 1980's prices per gallon are far better than the current Petro Prices. Thanks for catching this and posting it OcnBlu
  7. Surprised that with the hybrid they did not keep an equal footing on power. This heavy lookin station wagon is going to be a real slow boat to china I suspect off the line. Good to hear Drew just how nice GM's products are compared to a luxury model.
  8. Massages
  9. You could always invite him over for a home cooked dinner or go with the beer or better yet, if there is a 4wheelparts store close by, give him a gift card so he could get something for his jeep.
  10. Call me "someone", cuz I think it's hot. Do you find it so hot that you would spend your hard earn money sending profits over seas supporting jobs in Europe compared to buying and supporting an American company? I don't see how that's relevant to whether a car is hot. I gave an emotional response, it wasn't meant to have economic implications. But to answer your question: From what I've seen, this is expected to cost in the ballpark of $80k, perhaps more. I wouldn't spend that on any car. I also don't see myself buying a new car at all in the foreseeable future. I could, but it's a waste of money. My household's next car purchase will probably be a new commuter car for my wife. It'll probably be a 2010-2013 model purchased in '14 or '15. Something with good fuel economy and a manual trans. I'm eyeballing the Cruze & Sonic mostly. Back to the Alfa: it's hot. Glad you find it HOT! It's a NOT for me. I agree with you about new cars, I think I have bought my last one and will keep my current auto's refurbished and keep driving them till I cannot take care of them. I hate most of the new cars with all the stupid nanny technologies being forced on us by the gov.
  11. Artificial Sweetners
  12. Very cool, look forward to more pictures and a personal review of the auto.
  13. Love it, very sweet looking ride. Awesome job!
  14. Welcome #7, glad to have more folks get involved in our lively debates on the auto industry.

  16. So watching the video multiple times,it still does not thrill me especially when you consider the weight to HP and torque. I think it is over rated. Still take a lambo over this and better yet a Z01 over both.
  17. Fap I disagree, this should have been a Chrysler or Dodge CUV. The Jeep Brand has been very profitable with the marketing of going off trail in the rugged out doors world. I do not see this ugly CUV being needed under the Jeep Banner.
  18. How about an Upgrade Line! This I could see for rebuilding, rejuvenating and just plain changing from say petrol to Bio-Diesel or CNG.
  19. Yea, 9 1/2 hrs into the 7th and no info....................
  20. H'mm this guy clearly has never gone off road in any real 4x4. This plastic front nosed ugly kid is going to get broken up big time. It is NOT 2019, The customers have clearly stated they like the box on wheels look and if they wanted to get to this body style in 2019, then they should have started with a mild change towards that body style now and in 2 years taken it a bit farther and then in 2019 did this. Consumers expecially the off road crowd is not going to like this futuristic Jelly bean that is not really for the 4x4 crowd but aimed as a FWD CUV pavement only crowd.
  21. BioDiesel and CNG would be good alternative for this little baby.
  22. Saw a brand new Abarath 500 today on the way into work. Both man driving and lady passenger were really big people and look uncomfortable in that little ugly auto. Still not impressed with it.
  23. The Autocar story tends to tell me they are not happy with their S car and as such have held back to start over. I think Mercedes finally sees Audi and BMW as moving in on their turf, but what is not said is that I suspect they are actually seeing Cadillac sales crunch in on their sales.
