You have the worst taste in burgers possibly ever.. I'm not a fan of a chain burger, period.. but McDonalds is worse than all of those.. maybe save for White Castle as I've never eaten there and will likely never. -
This is intriguing.. Sounds very off-road-like and that's gnarly. I hope they give it some hard edges and not CUV curves.

I think the matte silver or body colored grills look the best. The large opening one is "okay" but it allows people to almost have an aftermarket grille from the factory.

All of us here would fckn love for the base(or lesser trims) to be styled like the V Series. I just think that's too aggressive to the masses.. I don't think the car needs to grow any. They just need to package it better as it was within an inch of every exterior measurement of the 3 Series. LOL

That's exactly how I feel as well. If I were further north and had true snowy winters like upstate NY, Wisconsin, Minn..etc. I would definitely invest in two sets of tires.

YEP! Same can be said for summer as well.

Name 5 places that make a worse burger than McDonalds... McDonald's burgers are horse shet.. I don't understand why anybody who isn't broke eats them.. I think it would be cool if one of the D3 offered a diesel like what's in the Titan XD in their half tons. GM still has an opportunity to take that. I think it would be badass to have a mid-range diesel in a half ton. Not as powerful as the 2500's, but not a weakling(slow, not weak) gas sipper either like the Ram and likely the F150's. 300hp/500-550tq would rock!

I'm not 100% on it yet.. Like @dfelt said, I kind of liked the butch-ness of the last one. I wish they would have modernized that look instead. However, I absolutely LOVE that they offer a small diesel option! Of course, I wish it were a little more powerful as the numbers seem a little on the low side but it's for economy, not speed, and I understand that. I wish they would have combined the hp from the 1.5(170) and the torque of the 2.0t(260).

I'm not the one making excuses for the ATS. You are. It wasn't just about styling. it was about being outdated as a whole. If the ATS's styling is dated then were does the CTS and CT6 stand because to the ignorance nobody will tell the difference. I've even asked the gf and the only real thing she pointed out without analyzing the pictures was the headlights on the CT6 compared to the CTS and ATS. My point, if the ATS has "been around" since 2011 and the BMW even earlier yet they made a better product all around.. no wonder we've been calling for updates. It was nearly half-assed if it needed the updates so quickly into a product cycle. Nobody is calling for necessary updates for the F30s and it's even older.

You're saying cars are tested before they are shown publicly? YA DONT SAY!! So add 1 year to everything ever made, duh. I'm not stupid nor is anybody else here when it comes to that. That also makes the BMW, Merc, and Audi a year older as well. So the F30/31 3 Series has also been around since 2011(2009 if you want to include spy shots of test vehicles..F30 Test Mule ) and still does everything better than the ATS(okay, marginally worse "dynamics" ).. excuses? But But But.. GM.. Dude, I love the ATS. I'm looking at buying an ATS. I'm just not blind that it isn't the "best" all around car in the class and it hasn't been around as long as it's all around superior competition and that doesn't make me want it any less either.

Random, but have @Cubical-aka-Moltar And @surreal1272 ever met? You guys live in the same area, don't you??
-
The engine might still have to go through EPA testing and stuff like that to finalize numbers and whatnot. Yeah terrible analogy because McDonald's absolutely makes the worst burgers and the F150 isn't the worst truck. I don't like the chrome either.. I'm just not a fan of a ton of chrome. My girlfriend had her wiper blades/arm/motor fckd from a car wash as well. Manufacturers should eliminate wiper blades because of crappy car washes.

Wow quite the refresh. I like it. I'm not 100% on the front end changes yet. I'm kind of indifferent on the front end. I'm not sure if it looks better or equally good to me yet. Surprised with all of the powertrain changes though. 3.3L V6? Interesting. Hopefully it doesn't need more revs for those same output numbers though.

The Yaris rental I have does NOT have auto lights or daytime running lights.. I thought it was odd for a 2016 vehicle. My dads Tacoma does though. There's also like a 10-12k price difference..but still.

I'll do another because I tend to love Mercedes quite a bit.. and hate KIA. Possibly more so after looking at their site for two vehicles. I'm pretty confident I would ball out in an AMG GT and a CLS63 S The KIAs on the other hand.. uhhhh.. I think the Optima looks pretty good and I guess a Sorento for space.

Well I think I'll go with Ford as my favorite(although if I was very wealthy I would only consider these two anyway) brand. Raptor GT350(R) Single brand that I don't like.. I wish I could say Toyota but I've always liked the Tacoma and they've had some gnarly of road shet. Therefore I won't lie to sneak a Taco and Land Cruiser into my garage. Nissan on the other hand.. Hate'm. Nothing Nissan makes me want to even give them a second look. My first instinct was to say FCA as a whole because I hate it so much that they're just letting great brands just rot away. Well, the two Nissan POS's I'll go with are... GT-R(Honestly, completely forgot about the GT-R because it doesn't really do a whole lot for me but I'd say I scored a big win for a brand I hate so much). I'm torn between the Armada as a people and thing hauler or the Maxima just because it isn't a 7 ton shetty SUV and I don't want to HAVE to take the Raptor everywhere. I guess an Armada in Platinum trim as to be fairly nice, right? SHET! After I typed all of that I forgot about the GT! I know the monetary value of a GT over a GT350 is insane but I honestly think I'd just want to be able to drive the car without worrying about anything.. so the GT350R is for me.

Didn't it get a refresh in 2015? or was it 2016? I know it was mild but personally I loved the replacement of the wreath with the crest in the grill. Hahaha thanks!

Sorry @oldshurst442 I tried to 'one up' your response to me but I got this as a response! "You are not allowed to give reputation to this user." WTF? THANKS OBAMA!

aaaaaaaaand things got overly political again.. lol

If you read the link.. which you didn't.. that's how long the car has been on sale which was 6 months after it's showing to the press. Hence, the half of a year. JABRONI!

You need better maths(or reading skillz). "Cadillac debuted the ATS to the press in the United States in January 2012, placed the ATS into production in July 2012 and began selling the ATS in the United States in August 2012 as a 2013 model. GM began selling the ATS in China in November 2013. For the 2016 model year, Cadillac sells the ATS in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe, the Middle East, China, Japan, and South Korea." 2017-2012 = __ I'll leave that blank for you and your smartass-ness to fill in. Also, less than a week ago people we still saying the same thing that the ATS needs a refresh, in 2016. The call for a refresh didn't happen only 6 days ago.
-
For the low-low price of...? Also, you've driven a lot of vehicles. Have you driven a refreshed Focus('15+)? I've read that their transmission tuning has improved but I'm yet to pilot one

JEALOUS. I LOVE the S3.
