  1. Seattle was loosing way to many old brick buildings to new 21st century looking sky scrapers, so a couple years back they passed a law that if it is an old building and they have a age scale you have to keep so much of it and now in the oldest section of Seattle, they have put up temp steel bracing to hold onto the brick walls and dug out deep to build a 21st century skyscraper with the old 1 to 3 story brick front. They have done a pretty good job of blending the old building with the new. Here is one of the old buildings being rebuilt new from the inside protecting the old outside walls but giving a rise to a stronger better modern building.
  2. I clicked +1 so we get you back to zero
  3. Deep
  4. I like the Colt for Dodge that would go well with the Dart and Colt EV. I wonder if Jolt Cola would sue over the name Jolt for a Subcompact EV?
  5. Awesome update, Thanks for sharing, maybe only a few of us, but great to hear how the car is doing, mileage and any issues. You have a great long term thread here that I always enjoy reading the updates on. Thank you for doing it.
  6. Navy
  7. So with the Volt and Bolt will we see a subcompact Jolt?
  8. You Love all things solid, Strong and Stiff! AKA Bolt
  9. BMW and MB will be forced to kill their V12, Europe is pushing to pass even more stringent standards on engines and technology is already showing that the days of the V12 are very limited. V8 will be the new V12.
  10. Yes, Good Move GM! My wife loves the look of this and asked me if we could add an American EV to the family of auto's when it comes out. She loves things quiet and wants something to just get to work and run errands and home. Small, Cute and efficient. So I figure 2017 a BOLT will enter the family auto group. Excited.
  11. Interesting to read, but this is near identical to what I have on all my GM auto's with OnStar.
  12. Good news, now lets keep doing what the new leaders and new company are doing best. Building new solid products to compete globally.
  13. I would add the Elmiraj to the voting list. With that it is my 2nd place followed by the Buick and then Lincoln. Over all while it is nice to see the Lincoln get a full size sedan the car is not bold enough to push the design language and say this is the new Lincoln. On top of that the interior with all the chrome is just stupid. The reflection blindness on the windshield is going to be massively bad and it just looks blingy cheap to me. I like chrome in moderation but we still seem to have stupid designers that think everything chromed is a good thing. WRONG, like anything moderation especially when it comes too luxury, make a statement that shows your different but strong and in moderation.
  14. VOLT Power trains in various performance to extreme frugalness should have been out over the last 3-5 years for all GM bands.
  15. Found this on Yahoo about 9 models that blow you away with small engines. First and foremost is this from the story: Qoute "Sedan or coupe, the compact Caddy is among the industry’s best-kept secrets, more fun to drive than even a BMW 3-Series. That lively, engaging personality is best experienced with the 2.0-liter turbo four, rather than the pricier and more pedestrian 3.6-liter V-6, or the outright anemic 2.5-liter four sans turbocharger." Over all a great read and even SMK's lowly Mercedes Benze gets a spot. https://www.yahoo.com/autos/nine-models-that-prove-small-engines-can-beat-big-116392112457.html
  16. That Rocks, awesome to hear you have that on the tucker.
  17. Gospel mission
  18. Considering the weak motors BMW and MB has put in some of their models this thing was anything but weak.
  19. Came across this story of 17 photo's of auto purgatory. Amazing to see even a couple places in the US but most are in Europe. Amazing to see just how many Citreons, Fiats and Honda's are sitting around due to over production telling us there is plenty of room for consolidation. Interesting photo of a NJ lot with hundreds of near identical 2nd generation new Dakotas. http://www.odometer.com/rides/10497/17-mind-blowing-pics-of-places-in-the-world-where-unsold-cars-waste-away#slide/0/1
  20. For those of us that are 6'6" tall once the seat is all the way back can you get in the back seat and still be comfortable? In other words can four six footers plus ride in it comfortably?
  21. Gotta love the Cuda! https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=drag+strip+engine+sounds https://youtu.be/2XyT00GC1HE
  22. We will see clearly those that want more luxury will end up in a Trax or Encore and those that want the image of off road out doors going with the Renegade. Each will have fans and customers and I agree with Drew that I do not see one cannibalizing the others.
  23. Over all nice updates and decent price to boot!
  24. intensity
  25. Two Auto's GMC Suburbans 90's edition / Cadillac Escalades First and third generation versions 1986 Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe to be specific OK, Guess that is three to some or two to others.
