Ya know.. for some stupid reason I didn't even think of the CTS-V..

Raptor get your daily duties?? I love the list though! I would only want the Ferrari in red though..

2016 E63 AMG S I added the "night package", illuminated TriStar, and one other thing that I don't remember..I think heated rear seats.. Whatever it was it was just to bump up to the price limit. This is what the "night package" is. It blacks out the front and side skirts and I think it looked great. And my interior.. As always.. Black on black.

I'm just trying to load my pictures... It'd be tough to pass up an E63 S.

Glorious victory: How the Camaro takes it to Bavaria's finest
ccap41 replied to Suaviloquent's topic in Chevrolet
I watched this..last week..maybe,, and it was awesome. Go 'Merica! I don't really remember it all of the top of my head but I recall a massive discrepancy in value INCLUDING the interiors and standard features that the BMW just lacks. -
I'm talking about the places that are nearly an hour from a WALMART. Like the super rural areas..in mountains and such. I don't see places like that converting to anything very well yet having to buy a vehicle that is electric is crazy to them. I just think it will be a difficult transition period for the 1%(probably most like 0.1%). Then these people also need mechanics but the mechanics are also in the boonies and have never worked on anything 2010 or newer...

Manual Trans, Woman versus Men! Are Men becoming soft?
ccap41 replied to G. David Felt's topic in Opinion
I'd also like to say that with an auto I definitely want a "manual" ability and I'd rather it not be a stupid button like my Escape's, but a button vs paddles wouldn't stop me from buying it, just a preference. -
When will we get to see this?!?!?!?

Manual Trans, Woman versus Men! Are Men becoming soft?
ccap41 replied to G. David Felt's topic in Opinion
It really depends.. as my daily I think I'm done having a stick but as a second car I ONLY want it to be a stick. I find early in the morning or at night I'm tired and I don't feel like shifting, then comes the traffic or little bit of city driving I do and I don't want a stick for that crap. ^ What Molty said! I'm actually "going though" that situation now(friend is looking to buy, not me) He wants a Tiguan(for whatever reason) but his vehicles HAVE to be a manual. The only way he can get that combination is for a super stripped down one. You can't get a manual trans in the most common engine/interior packages. -
I really wasn't trying to target any particular car, as my E90 M3 CRT/GTS and 458 Italia Speciale are off limits, too. I was just trying group cars with a 'large' displacement engine together. The 4.1-4.9 cars are kinda 'tweeners. Yeah, that 4.X really is tweener engine size. Dang.. I do love me some 458 Italia.

2nd Edit: Fck it. I'm dumb.

Your Dream Garage- Forced Induction 4.0 Max Edition
ccap41 replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
Shelby Series 1 !! I used to have a poster of one of those in my room! Great choice! -
I don't despise them as much as a Journey but for some reason I've just never fell for them either. I've always liked the Impreza/WRX/STI but anything else Subaru I've just viewed kind of as..junk.. I know that isn't a fair assessment. I just don't view Subaru as anything special outside of the WRX, below average interiors, average or below fuel economy and performance, but they have superb AWD systems. Maybe I just don't live in the right area to need a superb AWD system matched to fuel economy and vehicle size...? I really liked the Crosstrek when it first came out as well. It added some style and flare to an otherwise boring company but it's just kind of sat w/o much updates and it has one lone gasoline engine making 148hp/145tq.

As long as it is just as sexy as the CLS/A(S/RS)7 I'm fine with more good looking cars out there.

GM News: Ed Welburn To Retire As GM's Chief Designer This Summer
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in General Motors
Wasn't that the first car with radar cruise control or something like that? I think it's ugly but in a cool, unique, and innovative way. I could be wrong but from my research yes it was as far as I can tell but hopefully Balthy will pop in and confirm as the master of all things well aged! NEAT! Yeah my dad actually sent me an article on that car a few months back about how advanced it was for it's time but it just never stuck or took off.- 10 replies

Bummer, I would love to see what you built but cannot for some strange reason. Did it still never show up for you? Sadly no, I still see it as above and I have checked from both home and work. Not sure why some pics show up this way. Very weird. I know my work computer does things like that but usually when I'm at home or on my phone I don't have that issue...oh well.. It was just a paintball gun stand 90% complete. I still want to paint it and strap the foam down.

The XLR was not a weak attempt.. Actually it was a fine car initially, that failed to be updated. It debuted to the market in 2003.. on the C5 backbone.. but the C6 came out 1.5 years later with new tech and new engine. The XLR.. had it been the VSeries alone as the base model and a LS7 powered actual Vseries.. would have been a damn competitive vehicle. Especially looking at the competition. It wasn't a weak attempt but it didn't have the feeling of differentiation like they would if they did one today. I'm not knocking the perormance of the car as it was a gnarly car.. I'm just a little surprised they aren't doing a variation of it now.

Absolutely gorgeous!

I'm actually surprised they don't make a Caddy version of the Vette. They've learned how to not just to simple badge jobs so it would look better then the XLR(weak attempt) and be more differentiated because they just know how to do that better now.

Yeah I couldn't get it exactly how I'd like it because I'd definitely like the 2.3 and a few other things but that brings the price to nearly 45k. I think I would just really like a really nice version of what I have now which the way I built it would basically be that.
-
That is correct. And if they are getting a load for the full amount(not sure if that's even possible..) then you would be getting a loan for the full 37500(plus TTL) for the Bolt and hopfully you know your tax situation and then you'll know how much you should get back but your still in for the full amount up front.
