Ultimate Dream Garage: Special Edition er....Edition
ccap41 replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
I would like that 50th Anniversary 911.. beautiful car. That Rebel won't count.. I guess I could get rid of the One-77 for an F12 Berlinetta Stirling. -

ccap41 replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
To me, personally, it doesn't fit into this "Edition" theme. When I think of all of these "editions" I think of a limited run and one year only. So sticker packages? lol Chevy *enter vehicle model here* Midnight Edition. X5 -

Because it doesn't say "Aston Edition"? lol Wouldn't it fall into the "collectors" of "final" edition category..? Special editions are usually super lame looking because they're just sticker packages or some crap. -

Where do you put the Cobra R then? I actually love the Gucci Fiat 500 that they make(or made..no clue if they still do) -
I, personally, feel like both Audi and MB are at least evolving their same language. Even though the MB is on the soft and conservative side it at least looks different than their last 3 generations.

Is Ford Motor Company Falling a Step Behind Rival General Motors?

Yeah, the same way just getting a high flow mid pipe and a cat back yields you about 10-20hp. Have anything factual to back up that claim of what is "actually" going on? -

I don't have the answer to this but did they have a production number set prior to the start production? I think that is where the line should be drawn for a limited edition, imo. Like the Ford GT has a set production run before even selling or making a single production unit. For instance, I would throw the 2015 GT350 and R in there because they came out and said how many would be built ahead of time. -

That is an absolutely gorsgoue car. One of my favorite color combinations that you never see on cars is grey and that bright-ish color blue. And the interior was done in it too! -
Is that it? The 2500 and Caprice still use the 6.0? I guess... why? Why do they still use that as opposed to the 5.3(caprice) or 6.2(2500)?

I am not good with "special editions". This could be tough... -
BMW is the only company that doesn't evolve their design language.. It will eventually start to hurt them. I mean I think they look good and all but.. They need some more tweaks and evolution like the other German companies have done over the last handful of years.

1.6L Diesel. This thing will murder miles per gallon. I could see this thing with a light foot and reasonable speeds achieving 60mpg on a long trip. This makes me more curious about the Equinox diesel.

It absolutely looks like a Chinese knockoff! -

ccap41 replied to a topic in Industry News
Go on.. explain every factual thing you have to say about what is "actually" going on. Don't forget to site your sources. The link was very clear that with the right hand drive they had to reroute the exhaust which caused some restriction therefore reduced flow. You don't need much of a pinch to reduce power by that much. -

It isn't a short cut when the are rated differently. If they rated them the same and weren't the same..that's a different story and it would leave them subject to some lawsuits. -
WOW! For some reason this really really surprises me. I never would have guessed. I just assumed they were still in production.. like I assumed the 918 had turbos lol. From that list I'd swap the Challenger for the 911 Turbo.

It's easy to have less debt when you get the tax payers to clean the sheet for ya. What shortcut are you talking about? -
Wow, I just looked those colors up and they are awesome. Especially that shade of green. I'd love to have something in that color. The orange is awesome, like super awesome, I just think I would get sick of it much quicker.
-
Yeah that'd be nice if they were limited to the 2WD versions. I'm curious what % gain they get from those. It must be fairly significant if they bother designing and putting them on.

Neither the Ram Rebel or Ford Raptor have the chin spoiler/underbelly pan. But all three do in their on-road versions.

Yeah, you can easily cut those and half and they are still very well paying jobs. Pensions. Hate'm..because I don't have one. lol I have to contribute to my own 401k and my company matches but it's my own money put into it. Those listed above making near or above 200k don't even have to contribute 5-10% a year to be able to retire like the rest of us do so it's like a 5-10% raise on top of those numbers. Ps. thanks for the information!

I didn't realize GM still made the 6.0. I just assumed everthing was 5.3, 6.2 or their diesel(when it comes to trucks). Why is the 6.0 still around when they have the 6.2? Or vise versa? If they just detuned the 6.2 they could make it as powerful as this 6.0 or anywhere in the middle. What else still uses the 6.0 that I don't know about?

We get moles every year as well.. Almost never do anything about them unless they are really bad for some reason. I don't know how it is even possible to NOT have term limits. I mean the president has had term limits..for ever? Right? If the 'most sought after' position has a limit and I believe there are limits for a lot of other positions as well without looking up the terms.. I think some are 2,4 and 6 years...but don't quote me.. I also think there should be massive pay cuts from those positions. Not to try and save money or anything like that but because I want the politicians in office because they want to make the US a better place and not because it is a well paying job and all of the benefits. I don't mind a retirement fund like we get from our jobs. I'm assuming theirs is MUCH MUCH easier than ours is though. What is theirs like?
