    Seeming how you're asking... the MK7 GTI has had a plastic oil pan sense 2015. The 6.7L Powrestroke Ford has been a composite since 2010. Or are you asking like pre-2000?

    You also don't like anything German made so this isn't surprising.

    I also don't think it is at the level of a Chevy.

    Oh I don't think it looks genuinely luxurious and I insinuated it was too pricey for what you're getting but I don't think anything about the interior looks worse than what's currently out there.
  5. ccap41
    I wouldn't worry about it.

    I just did a little googling and they've been around for a long time and apparently the 2015+ F150 has had them.

    My Escape had a little plastic skidplate(I presume it was for less aerodynamic drag) that would have been plenty to keep a plastic oil pan covered from most anything you drive over. This can't be the first plastic oil pan, is it?

    Have you seen the interior of a Colorado, Canyon, Tacoma, or Frontier? If you think this looks cheap I cannot imagine how bad you think the Colorado's interior looks in comparison.

    I don't see anything wrong with it other than the price.

    I don't see any reason to be concerned about a plastic oil pan. It isn't like it will be made of the same plastic of a water bottle. Composites have made such great advances that they should be used more where they can.

    I can almost guarantee there is a soft aero skid-plate under the vehicle that will protect it from most any contact.

    Fiesta 1.0T ? LOL I read that backward... ------------------------------------- RS3? Are those inline 5cyl?

    Did this not replace anything then? What's all in the stable these days other than this new vehicle?

    Those are all much better! I cannot stand that 95% of aftermarket wheels on trucks and Wranglers are black with silver machined holes and fake bead locks.

    Stereotypical "Bro" wheels look like trash.
  16. ccap41
    I can agree with that. They've gone through the roof with their prices.

    The last thing I played a crap ton of was Grand Turismo 6 on PS3. I've been busy with life the last X years and haven't even bought one of the newest systems that have been out for quite awhile now. I freakin' loved that game though. I've had all of the Gran Turismo games and they were definitely the most realistic but I'm not sure where that stands now.

    Man, you must live around quite a few hippies.. Oh. You do live in Seattle. Makes sense.

    People riding the bus want to instead use their vehicle?

    1. Autonomous driving cars won't magically make people not scared to be behind the wheel. 2. This also won't help those driver who choose to stay in the left lane, move out of the left lane. Maybe you're assuming 100% autonomous vehicles where you just put in an address at your house and you can fall asleep behind the wheel before it even gets out of the driveway? I don't see that kind of technology being widespread in ten years or less.

    Mmmm exhaust on a V6. I bet that sounds just wonderful. The E43 is a fake AMG just like the C43 is and just like BMW's M-Sports and Audi's S-Sports.
  22. ccap41
    Thanks ya!

    S4, S6, S7, S8 are the Audi version of BMW's 340i, 540i, 650i, 750i and Mercedes'(now in fake AMG guise) C43, E43, S560 The "new" AMG's that are the C43 and E43 are no more than an appearance package on what used to be the C and E400. Yes, they throw more boost at the 3.0 but there really isn't a whole lot there that isn't offered on the E400. I mean look at their highlights for the car... The first things you see are basically the same as the E400.

    I don't know if "autonomous driving vehicles" and "exciting" are the right combination of words as an enthusiast.
  25. ccap41
    If it's marketing wouldn't it benefit them more to do it the way they're doing it? It is working. My friend's mom who bought a 540i a month or two ago has the M Sport package and keeps saying she has the top of the line M BMW. No, No you do not. And I did already agree that the brand is diluting itself but you said they "should be only a single top level and the rest below it are various levels of the standard auto." There's no reason, especially as consumers and auto enthusiasts, that we shouldn't welcome more and more performance variations.
