Reminds me of the sucker fish that clean the fish tank, small open mouth in the center (To Get Maximum Cold Air) Gills on the sides, (thinking cold air vents for brakes?) I agree that it is played out, but also understand the need to get cold air into the engine and into the brakes for stopping. I suspect we will not get back to elegant front end designs till the EV's hit. That is my hope that the EV's will bring us back to elegance and style.

So Sad

You also do not have to have DOHC engines to have awesome engine performance even with Turbo's. Plus no one even you SMK have proven that DOHC is a requirement to be a performance auto. Marketing fluff of DOHC engines that increase weight and inefficiencies. Sold by Europeans as they cannot build a competitive Pushrod motor.

Smart move to check the old king!

You really surprised me as you have shown just how conservative, non willing to learn, grow and embrace differences. You seem to imply that life is perfect and everything should just stay static. If we all thought that way, we would have slavery, prosecution of the LGBTA community and we would be poorer for it due to the lack of enrichment on top of still sucking in fumes from leaded gas. There is a reason that those that create and grow their wealth embrace change. Why do you fear the EV? Your job will not go away in repairing auto's!

You continue to be blind to the truth that their is a vast growing infrastructure for charging. No Soul, No accounting or different tastes or needs? That is all very subjective and personal. many who drive EV's now would disagree with you on both counts. EV's will create a ton of new jobs and new personalities as companies build 3rd party controller boards and software upgrades that enhance the experience of the EV. Why Tesla is able to change the performance on the fly once your credit card clears remotely, Any auto company can really do this. The BOLT even can put out more power, GM just has chosen to not offer the options yet. I would be even willing to say that I bet there is 3rd party companies already looking at performance upgrades for the BOLT. Same thing all 3rd party companies have done to ICE. @Drew Dowdell Nailed the simplicity part very clearly and then even went farther to clarify it or you and others. The ability for people to have their own companies based on building EV upgrades is huge as we are just at the start of the EV revolution for Auto's. Yes, yes it is and I am willing to state that. It is easier to own an EV auto where I live than an ICE auto. Less cost, less maintenance, easier to refill the battery pack with electrons. A soul that responds to the 21st century.

I understand, but I am not sold that you have to be DOHC to have performance. Too many proven non-dohc motors that run crazy and being a 10K red Line does not mean that is performance.

Is the auto paid off? If it is and the repairs are minimal, then I would hold onto it and save for that day when you buy what you always dreamed about. If the auto is still being paid on, then of course, it would come down to payments, do either of the other choices keep you in the same payment in an auto that has not been in a crash yet? I agree that an auto with bad underbody damage is a weakened auto and I would rather have my family and friends in something that is strong and solid. Safety is not an option for me nor can one put a price on quality of life.

Very cool, love the tone of the engine! That is a bad ass sounding V8! I really hope Corvette stays true to their heritage and DOES NOT put in the over rated DOHC CRAP Motors!

I had read somewhere that the Camry and one of the Subaru's was built on the same assembly line just like the 2 door coupe.

Nice looking car, for a car. Interior is sweet, we have such nice interiors compared to just a few years ago.

Fruit is getting rotten, that is why!

Bolt with Seats up are 16.9 cubic feet seats down 94.4 cubic feet of space Ioniq EV seats up 23.8 cubic feet seats down 96.2 cubic feet of space Bolt over all length = 164 inches Ioniq overall length = 176 inches. Understandable that the Ioniq has a bit more cargo space.

Yet with lease focused companies like MB and BMW, you can get so called luxury auto's cheap and the lower income folks tend to go that route to pretend they have money rather than look at the entry level auto's. In some ways the 90%+ leasing of certain models by certain brands (german) has created a problem with a glut of auto's in the cpo market and expectations of why should I accept an entry level auto when I can squeeze the payments to have a luxury ride.

Wonder if since Toyota owns them if they are not using a Toyota Modular platform. @Drew Dowdell Do you know if they are?

Yumm, Agreed, any delicious red wine with it?

Nice, always good to see them focused on improving them.

Weird, have not seen that issue yet, knock on wood.

No big deal, Not a fan of the bunker looking auto the longer it has been on the market.

Seattle already is snowy and frozen, more later this week.

Everything is working fine for me.

Wonder if they will use the BOLT platform, I think not or build their own EV platform.

And you're still a young Pup! Early HAPPY BIRTHDAY Drew!!!

I doubt Tesla will even be at 3000 a week by the end of January.
