One day I'll have one as a second, toy car.. I love that that feels like the last generation of just a basic V8 car. Not much electronic going on inside, it's small, just a simple car. One-Dimensional? I have a couple of daily drivers in there.. I really wanted a 458 and that would have superseded the GT probably but I just like the rarity of the GT and thought it would be cool to have both of the gnarly pony cars of the same era. I could have easily chosen faster and better all around cars...

Hmmmm interesting.. alright alright.. I assume that's where the Boss 302 fits in as well?
-
If anything the CTS-V Wagon shouldn't count as they don't make a 2017 or 2016 wagon. What's the Boss 302 a predecessor of? GT350?

FWIW, I consider "excessive chrome" when it's added to mirrors and stripes on the side. I'm like @dfelt in that I'm more of a monochromatic kind of person and I'd like both of those pieces to be body color. The big chrome grill is okay and works on this car. I do like the natural, outdoor lighting as opposed to any of the other pictures that have been taken of the car. That burgundy color... looks absolutely wonderful!!

VW News: 2018 Volkswagen Atlas Has A Tough Task Ahead of It
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Volkswagen
I think it looks "okay". Nothing flashy or special but that's how VW does things. I'm fine with that simplicity. I'm just not sure how I feel about the engine choices. I know Ford tried to use a 2.0T 4cyl in the Explorer and it was a failure and this seems to be the same thing. It was 240hp/270tq. I can't see this being significantly lighter than the Explorer to benefit from that same power ratings. The jump to the 2.3T and 280hp/310tq is more what's necessary for a 3 row SUV. A n/a V6(nearly an inline6) can't be all that much better... I think it's safe to assume it will be the same as in the Touareg = 280hp/266tq and in that it get's an outstanding 1mpg better combined than an Explorer w/ the 3.5EB. -
Would You Rather: Putting the 'Sport' in SUV Edition

It would be hard to look at anything other than the JGC SRT. -
Would You Rather: Putting the 'Sport' in SUV Edition
ccap41 replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
18 cubic feet behind the rear seats of the Mecan? Why not just buy a Cayman with that kind of space. That's just a tad over half of the cargo space in my Escape and the Jag. I know I don't need a lot of space but that's legitimately small. The Trunk of a fusion is 16cu.ft., Malibu 15.8, Camry 15.4, etc.. I know I'm picking at something small but people do buy these for their space and that number just doesn't make sense to me. Gimme the Jag because it looks better and makes more sense. If I were actually spending my own money I think it would be between the F-Pace and an AMG GLC 43 -
What Would You Buy Instead: Porsche 911 Carrera Edition
ccap41 replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
Yeah I've owned a black car and in the right(wrong) weather and time of year every day is what it would take. Winter or the times of year when farmers are doing whatever to their fields and there's just a ton of dust in the air.. I would wash my car about every Sunday and it could have easily been twice a week to keep it looking how I wanted. -

AB-SO-LUTELY! As long as the owner is willing to wash it once a week and keep it looking clean, best color "combo" out there. -
China's Solution to Mass Transit, Drive Over the Cars!
ccap41 replied to G. David Felt's topic in Industry News
I think it would be great to have over here in the states but it seems like places that could utilize this best are kind of too built up to be able to build a second roadway for this. To put this in the DC area would require double roads in a lot of places, just like any other city. I think it is a GREAT idea but I feel like the city has to grow around something like this rather than plop this onto a city. -

lol I didn't even mean to post a C6.. I didn't even think about it when I got excited about how awesome this one looks. -
I'd love for them to bring them here in the half ton size and have Ford Platinus and Limiteds, GMC Denalis, Ram Limiteds all put it shame.

Definitely tires. There are a lot of those out there.

Oh he WANTS 2 sets of wheels??? Stupid, imo... I see what you're talking about now, my bad.
-
No, I understand that. But as you rotate them from one side of the vehicle to the other they won't look funny. They will match the wheel that is already there. All 4 wheels are the same. I also never said there weren't directional wheels.. I even posted a picture OF directional wheels.

Is Ford Motor Company Falling a Step Behind Rival General Motors?
ccap41 replied to a topic in Industry News
Or... Maybe Ford foresaw a $h! storm brewing and jumped the gun getting cash..? -
lol You guys..aren't right.. Lay them all flat on the ground and they all are the same wheel. They will be different on both sides of the vehicle but you will never notice the difference rotating them. This is a less exaggerated wheel but the same thing is going on here.
