  1. Makes ya wonder if they will use the I8 Ugly body on it or what.
  2. Love on the 14th! That ROCKS!!! Looking forward to the pictures and your take on the beast of yours.
  3. It's an expense that the general public doesn't need. Plugging in 2 ipads in the back doesn't put that big a load on the electrical system. But when you add stereo stuff and other things like if you add an alarm or remote start due to the auto not having it, I have found in the past that if not done right by a person with attention to details it can come back and bite you in the arse!
  4. Sweet, Rocking the V8, yes he will fit in just fine. Welcome to the family, look forward to your posting and contributions to the site.
  5. OK, but the motor is more a take on BMW realizing they need to sell against the VOLT than Tesla. Tesla is pure electric no motor as a generator. I believe in my heart that politics aside, GM could easily build a superior Tesla type auto under the Cadillac logo.
  6. Hope they go towards the brick look of the Patriot as the Compass was just ugly.
  7. Interesting they should put these things in normal versions especially the electrical system.
  8. Awesome to have you join the C&G family. Welcome!
  9. Very cool history.
  10. Interesting, so then to say 36 powertrains, we must divide by 4 to realize that they will have 4 core engine lines that with different tuning and accessories will end up with 9 engine variances of the 4 main lines. 3 petrol and 1 diesel.
  11. Drinks
  12. Failure before even leaving the gate for Acura.
  13. So a quality thoroughbred that comes in under the media yard stick BMW M series. Nice Job!
  14. I'll be in Annapolis this coming week. Shame if something would happen to your nice new truck... Or you could put a special bow on it for Ocn, I am sure he would love a present in the bed!
  15. Is it here yet?
  16. I could see a luxury beefy AWD CUV selling.
  17. Surprising as with all the travel I do I do not see Suzuki auto's and commercial trucks much except in the Asian rim.
  18. Love to hear a larger off lease returns are coming. Means some nice fully loaded low mile used options.
  19. This should be interesting to see how it does and what people think of the auto.
  20. Conversely, many don't realize that these companies tend to very well overall when you consider total global sales. Suzuki, for example, outsells PSA (Peugeot, Citroen), Renault, BMW, Daimler AG (Mercedes) in total global units and have been generally profitable. This just goes to show how hard it is to overcome a bad reputation in a single country thanks to some $h!ty Daewoos. Mazda is doing pretty well for itself after its break-up with Ford. It has a ways to go, but is increasing its global sales and overall profits were up 77% as of the most recent quarter. Considering the constant praise its vehicles are managing, they're likely on track for continued success. Mitsubishi, on the other hand, is a fairly mixed bag. Globally, it produces about the same quantity as Mazda, but its latest profits were down 10% (but not in the negative). Does that include Suzuki motorcycles, marine products, etc or just truly auto's? Amazing to hear that Suzuki outsells those other brands.
  21. Found this lovely bike on a web site that was about lighting. No other information about the bike just the lighting to take the picture. Having never seen a bike like this, anyone know what it is? I really like the flow of the body design.
  22. S-Class is OVER RATED! Being in a few I have yet to see why they charge so much as it does not register with me but then I guess not being part of the billionaire class I cannot fathom the badge snob of it either.
  23. Wonder if you could figure out a way to have this plus add your own little generator so you get a 200 mile range on electric before the generator kicks in.
  24. Time to get serious about the US stop trying to push their democracy agenda world wide and being the global police force. Time to cut in half the 1800 military bases and 500 black op bases around the world. Bring these soldiers home, place a good size chunk on the borders to keep illegals out and cut down on the cross border illegal trade of weapons and drugs. Then spend the other chunk of savings on paying down national debt and to increase the efficiency of agencies like the NHTSA. We need a president along with the House and Senate that will stand up to the business specialist and military and start focusing on the safety and rebuilding of our national infrastructure and schools.
  25. Truly Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Mazda and all the rest of the little fish need to merge and stop the waste of money on small segments and get serious about competing with the bigger companies. The days of survival as a small fish are over in this global economy. Time to merge and go with bigger, deeper and wider portfolio of auto options.
