  1. ^^^^^

    My brother likes that car right up there because, and I quote, their "phat ass".

    I like the new Camry. Say what you will. But you can still get a V6. You can still get a real automatic. Now of course you can always say that we'l, for the same money and some change just get a damn Impala you noob...

    And to that I say, but does it have a true Quad Exhaust? And then some fake ass bumper vents. I don't know why Toyoto did that to be quite honest. Like who thought it made sense to tack on Walmart style fake vents on that damn thing?

  2. Jeff Bezos also helped out Blue Origin. 

    SpacEx is astronomical units ahead there.

    Rivian has a concept. Remember when Faraway Future was making noise? Then some Chinese LeEco guy invested like a billion dollars.

    What about Lucid? There were rumours Ford was taking a look?

    And then there was some controversy with that?

    Rivian is basically a boxy styling Faraway at this point.

  3. I think people considering the Blazer probably will come to terms with the offering. The Balzer offers uniqueness. 

     I feel Chevy has always been a stylish or classy, or solid alternative when done right. Impala has been classy. The Cruze...best NVH in class, the Sonic, well built and grown up for a compact. And now this thing.

    Anybody buying in this class doesn't want stylish and good looking sedans anyways, they want the inbetween. Blazer avoids looking like an appliance, even though that's still the intended function.

    GM just took a Acadia crossover and set it ABLAZE.  That's why it at least looks dynamic, hot and smaller.

  4. Demographic changes will make the point moot. Other than the rough adventure types... Or posh sentimentals no in my circles care about domestic brands, especially the non-main line ones.

    I would consider Cadillac here main-line because it has more pedigree. Buick does not get lumped into that. Chevy is seen as all manners of bad acronyms associated with 'GM'. 

    GMC and Denali seem immune. No one can kill that one. Professional grade. Thought every time I see a Terrain, its in SLT trim. I have yet to see anything Denali that isn't a pickup truck or Yukon 

  5. Hmmm, yes first the electric will only control the spark... And then over time the engine lost control of propelling the car altogether.

    The electric developed further, overtime taking over more and more functions of the engine.  

    And then the electric motor achieved cost and technological parity. After that the engine died out. Eons later no one knows to this day why combustion was favoured over electric.

  6. There you go. Your overpriced Blazer funds overpriced bikes.

    Europeans are on the whole much healthier and therefore lighter than Americans. They don't need the assist.

    I see this going two ways. 

    It either makes money but still is a waste of time.

    Or it doesn't make money and it's a collosal waste of time.

    Wait I get. They want to make autonomous bikes. No pedaling... No handlebar. Just sit hunched over and look at your phone the whole damn time with wind in your face. It's the new convertible! So good!

  7. This CTS is what put Alpha in the map.

    I'm not sure if GM can surpass this to be honest. The LT4 has an analog vibe in what is the digital divide. 

    It has an umami, a secret flavour that isn't easy to replicate, even for Cadillac. Never before have style, performance, and luxury come together in the most American way possible.

    For someone looking at the CT6-V... I must say. The CT6-V has a big boy badass. The CTS has a ace, the boss, the maximum killer...the hitman level of badass..to me that is. But the CT6-V might just offer more opulence and a more refined drive...

  8. Jeepiat? What is that? Sounds tasty. Something exotic. On second thoughts exotics are never reliable...

     

    Is that what those bozo teens called the Tide Pods that they ate like fruit?

     

    Anyways dammit @oldshurst442.

    why. Why do I hate even the idea of my parents helping me with anything....yet you calmly let your mom do your laundry like it’s no issue. I can't bring myself to have my mom cook for me even... And I'm not even 25 yet...btw I also live on my own.

    However I am a basement dweller basket of deplorables, my name is Suaviloquent and I approve this message.

  9. Tesla has an ecosystem approach. That’s something all the others lagged behind.

    Honestly, if Tesla can just get to their damn $40,000 car...not even $35,000 they’ll have made it.

     

    I think they can reasonably get to 500k cars by 2021. Holy smokes.... were I to say this, maybe 2 years ago....pls I would have loved to be lynched by a mob, even I would have believed I deserved it by saying that!

  10. An "all-new" Acadia is big problem. Debuting years old product from another market into Australia???? Of all places? Get the HELL outta there if that's the best you can do! Maybe someone else is doing that too, but the race to the bottom will have unintended consequences.

    1 in every 10/100/1000 CLA-minded people will consider test driving a Genesis G70 for the same price. Once they do they'll probably never go back to Mercedes... for example.

    You can do the reverse, like bring a Ford Ranger and slap some extra steel and safety equipment. You can bring the Caprice and SS...and give Holden much needed production volume. 

    But you cannot take a Regal and call it a commodore. However you could badge engineer a commodore and get away with calling it a GNX. It'd have the performance chops with the correct drivetrain and hardware.
