Oops...forgot the FJ. Oh please...

The tan interior looks much better.

The Land Cruiser will be cancelled soon, thank God, I think this is the last model year for it. That leaves Toyota with 4 and if it cares to have a smaller than Rav4 SUV, which would make some sense, it is free to do so. Apparently, GM needs a lot more than 6 SUVs.

Alright, I understand where you are coming from now.

Even though retail sales were up 1%, I guess you could give it to GM. Considering how many cars have gone to fleets in the past, dealers must have sold a lot of cars for that increase.

I thought the Sentra was pretty nice for an economy car. The front of this Elantra looks somewhat like the current-gen, no?

How are overall sales up? I see "overall sales down 2.5% compared to year-ago level." The thing that somewhat irritates me is that car sales are down and truck sales are up. Obviously the new trucks are selling, which is a good thing, do not get me wrong, but I was of the impression that not all of GM's eggs are going to be in the same basket, yet again. I guess it is not that bad considering what it was like years ago when gas was cheaper. Hurricane season starts in just 3 short months and the Iran problem is far from being sorted out.

If I am not mistaken, they did sell more cars than last February or any February, for that matter. In other words, it is a monthly sales record. I am sure GM would be doing the same thing.

Maybe you do not know, even though it has been said, the next-gen Highlander will be larger to compete with the Lambdas so the size of Rav4 was increased to cover what would have been a large size gap.

Clean your glasses before you make such idiotic statements.

From what I see, it looks good.

Proof please.

The wing is ricey, that's about it. The new Ford Fusion ad with the guy in the self-checkout lane at the supermarket is pretty funny, too. "Wart, wart, wart."

The exterior is great and the vast majority of the interior is, too. I disagree with Northstar, though, on the NAV area. It looks too Korean in the sense of, "we don't know what to put here to cover this huge area in non-NAV equipped models."

ITALIAN. I just had it for dinner, too. My dad is Polish so we also have Polish food more than the normal person/family but the majority of the stuff I do not like. I will eat almost anything, though. I love food. Italian sausage. Not THAT kind, though.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, guys!

For the most part, yes, DCX does have relatively cheap interiors. I would not call the interiors of the LX cars, minivans, PT Cruiser or Pacifica cheap, though. My point was that many on here complain about others who hype nice interiors. They focus on performance, exterior design, etc. I am, for the most part, one of those members who likes a nice interior (good materials, build quality and design) but I would gladly look over a non-$42,000 interior because, in my mind, the Charger SRT8 compensates in exterior design, image and performance.

All I know is that I love these gauges and turning them green would turn me off.

The S4 is one hot car, though, and I think it befits the price tag.

I think I just creamed... There are no words to describe this car. Beautiful, amazing, orgasmic...it is all one huge understatement. While I know the televisions and the second/third row center console will not make production, I hope everything else does. The leather on the dash and front center console looks amazing (please put it through for production!) and makes me think of Jaguar. The picnic tables would make for an awesome feature on the top-of-the-line model. Even the damn carpet mats look high quality. I love the seats, they look really comfortable. The gauges are modern yet classy. All the materials appear to be top-notch. I am not fond of the engine bay, either, but if the rest of the car looks that way, I'll take it.

But like Brewswillis said, it's all about choice!

At the end of the day, I thought a car's interior did not matter much when it came to performance?

Joke all you want but it is quite poor for GM to need three vehicles to go up against Toyota's one.
