Btw, my point of the second gen. SRX was to show the obvious similarities between the Vizon concept and it because it's true. Sorry it doesn't fit your agenda to place the bar so high on Cadillac while ignoring the simple principle behind your average concept car, which has been explained to you already. Just keep the condescending thoughts to yourself next time because I find a certain irony in you criticizing CP for his thin skin when I can easily reference your skin and it's thinness via the Pokemon thread where you basically insulted anyone older than yourself. Practice what you preach is the lesson to be had here. And again with the sketches as "proof". Seriously?

You are making a rather severe hair splitting argument. If you look at the SRX concept and compare it to the last gen SRX, there are many similarities. Hell, just one look at the headlights on the concept prove exactly where it went. On top of that, who cares? Show me one concept out there that kept every detail because that seems to be the bar you expect Cadillac to set. Every maker out there does this but you seem to think only Cadillac merits the criticism of not producing exactly to spec against the CONCEPT (capitalized for emphasis). Your condescension to CP and myself aside, you seem to have a very unrealistic expectation of what should actually come out of a concept. Btw, what you call radical is also irrelevent since it is clearly just a matter of opinion, and an unrealistic one at that.

Fiat News: Rumorpile: A Fiat 124 Coupe Is Said To Be In the Works
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Fiat
That's good about the tranny but I'm very old school with Fiat. I remember why they had to stop selling in the country three decades ago. I just don't trust their motors at all. If the 1.4L changes that, then that is a good start for them. Now if they could just stop screwing everything else up. -
Fiat News: Rumorpile: A Fiat 124 Coupe Is Said To Be In the Works
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Fiat
Isn't the 124 using a Fiat tranny and motor? If so, I'm not sure how that makes it as reliable as the Miata. It actually does look better in person though. I pass by a Fiat dealership everyday and see four or five of those by the road and they have actually grown on me. I still wouldn't have one (or the Miata for that matter) but it is definitely the nicest looking Fiat out there. -
Understandable. No worries on my end. My status updates are just a way for me have a little fun and vent a little from time to time.
-
Comment self removed because I don't talk to petty children.
-
Accidental discoveries are fun. That's how I learn half the time lol.

So it appears that you can now see who up voted or down voted your post. A very nice feature indeed. Also, the I like the overall look and feel of the new site. Some of the new features and layout changes take a little getting used to but it is a welcome change. Again, nice job Drew.

Some thoughts are not so random.
-
Way to overdramatize what I'm saying. Cadillacs sales position is irrelevant. Like Balth said, most people are not concerned with how many cars are sold every month. That's only for bean counters and trolls who have no other argument, especially when they ignore ALL the other facts, like the fact that Cadillac doesn't need all those CUVs when they are only a part of the bigger picture which is GM.
-
I'm going to repeat this until you finally get the hint. Cadillac does not need five CUVs.
-
I understand what you're saying but it looks nothing like the 200 IMO.
-
Which Chrysler? Sure doesn't look like any Chrysler I've seen.
-
My point exactly. He acts like Cadillac is a stand alone brand that has to do everything like Benz and BMW when it is exactly the opposite.
-
They do not need five CUVs They are part of GM, which offers them across the board while Benz and BMW have to offer that many being singular brands with no other branches like GM. How many times does the same thing have to be said to you before you get the hint?
-
Don't understand the light issues some are having. It's just a concept and those kind of lights will never see production. Overall, I like what I see here and the numbers are a plus. It measures longer than the S class while having way more cargo room. That's a nice start in my book.
-
So you don't even know if they will actually build it (they won't build anything near that come production time) yet you think it's Tesla killer? You do understand the term "vapor ware" right?
-
So, a sure to be more than $300K MAYBACH (stop sugarcoating it here) is your convincing argument against a $100K Tesla? I have no words.
-
Of course Tesla won't do it. Who would have thought that an EV car company would not build a gas powered V12? Good grief man. What kind of comparison is that? What this V12 overpriced Benz has to do with competing in the EV market I haven't the foggiest.
-
That concept is also not an EV nor did I read any mention of it so it's pretty pointless to call out Tesla on it.
-
So Tesla doesn't have a concept car that has yet to be been announced, much less released? Excuse me if I'm not convinced here. It also screams Buick Avista to me just on first look.
-
For those in need, and there are certainly a couple here that could use them.
-
Oh good grief. Who cares (referring to the both of you)? You both participated in the same conversation on a Random Thought thread. Moving along...had an Bangle era 7 series behind me this morning and forgot how butt ugly that car was in the front. Simply hideous.
