November 2016: General Motors Co.
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
I may depend on the wheel size that makes more noticeable or not. I had 18" Hemi wheels on mine so it was a little taller than the standard SXT models.- 34 replies

Honestly I could not tell the difference if you were to put an AWD model right next to my old Magnum. Very subtle.- 34 replies

I don't know about the newer model cars but the Magnum AWD was about an inch higher than the RWD only models.- 34 replies

Kind of like how the Mustang was "sticking it" to the Camaro for most of year, i.e. more than 30% fleet/rental to do so.- 34 replies

Barely because that's when it all went to hell for Lincoln and Cadillac and they have been digging out of that hell ever since. They are getting there though.- 34 replies

Yeah, it really stuck it to the CT6...by a whole 300 units. And saying Continental name means something would involve willfully ignoring the boring trash of the last 30+ years. It would be the same if Cadillac tried to bring back the DeVille name. It has been completely tarnished by years of begging a neglected also ran.- 34 replies

The Escalade is definitely the clear winner here. Out of all them though, I would never ever consider the hideous Infiniti or the notoriously unreliable and overpriced Range Rover. The Lincoln should not have even been invited to the luxury party though until the new model comes out, which promises to be leaps and bound better than this outdated beast.

Kia News: Spying: Are You the Production Kia GT?
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Kia
My god, I hope not. Looks like they slapped the nose of a Hyundai Genesis Coupe onto a Kia Optima! Just a whole lot of "nope" there. -
In gun metal gray (similar to the one on Ray Donavon), that is one gorgeous ride. Of course it would nice if this would happen in the U.S. Instead we just get more tall body wagons that they call "CUVs". For shame.

At least two of the fires in NC are suspected to be arson. People suck. They are getting some rain in area today though so hopefully that helps the firefighting effort.

I echo your sentiment. There are just too many variables working against it right now.

Short of commercial applications (which would face stiff competition here), there really wasn't a need or a case for this truck here and Mercedes made a wise move holding off on the US market. That could change down the road, mind you, but it is clear that now is not the time. Thing is hideous anyway.

Anything to actually add to the subject @FordCosworth or are you just stopping by to show your negative support like always?

After reading that comparo, I think we can put this "MT is nothing more than a GM propaganda arm" argument to rest. They were ridiculously harsh on the CT6 in a test that was set up for Volvo all the way.

No. That was a vote against the poster and not the post. I can guarantee that.

Typo on my part. Saw it after the fact. Doh!!

My first encounter was with one at a specialty shop. It looked exactly like the one picture except the interior was red. It had the original 380 with 63,000 miles on it, all stock and was in mint condition. They were asking $18,000 for it in '92 and if I had a garage then, I would have bought it in a second. Just gorgeous.

Just saw the Zombie on TV the other day. That is just pure nastiness! That Conti is just flat out gorgeous!
-
Yeah but it won't look near as good doing it!

This is the exact one I want. Ever since I first laid my eyes on one up close 25 years ago, it has been numero uno on my want list. I would not kick four door out of the driveway but this is the coup de gras for me!

That and a '59 Cadillac El Dorado Biarritz Convertible have long been at the top of my automotive bucket list!

Saw this for sale in my area today. Now I'm just wondering which organ I can afford to part with. This is a serious bucket list car for me.
