  1. Yes DD, I think it is the Mercury Grand Marquis, which offered "Dual Media" option.
  2. He is just trying to run around circles again. He constantly harps about lack of marketing for GM products. Now he wants to prove how bad the products are hence lack of marketing went on back burner.
  3. #3 is driving me nuts, as I have seen and read about it somewhere. I don't know whether it was Corvette related or some GM performance car related.
  4. #2 - Dodge Challenger? Silver Challenger - 1958-1959 Gen 1 - 1969-1974 Gen 2 - 1978-1983 Gen 3 - 2008-Now #5 - Tires do not have white letters (may be not visible) as the description says? Or it lacks the 340 Six Pak Decal?
  5. Just to understand your point BV, what is your assumption behind CLA not cross shopped among higher trim Camry/Accord or Lower trim 3er/ATS?
  6. Best or nothing - yeah that's why it took 5 years and close to $1B in investment to win only one F1 championship. Many smaller teams have done that at much smaller budgets. To me that's waste of money for a sense of bragging that means nothing. Hummer came way after the old fart G Class. What excuse do you have for this vehicle that has stayed unchanged since before you were conceived?
  7. If Spark, then there will be three unveils at NY. I think it will be somewhere non-US release because the Spark was released in non-NA markets three years prior to the introduction here.
  8. Chevroletdes Benz - Luxury Pretensions, Generic Intentions. Based on SMK's logic, if Benz produces a truck between a compact truck and giant full size truck, it will be a complete generic auto manufacturer.
  9. No. VW is still strong in EU/China. However, I have had doubts on its balance sheet, since VW-Porshce fiasco. There may be a gap between perception and reality of VW's financial strength.
  10. It's not as simplistic. As far as SMK's comments are concerned, it is more of a tunnel vision view based on GM's sales. If you look at Toyota's sales, the Corolla and Camry are YTD have gained than the trucks sales have. That tells that customers have not made the shift to bigger vehicles despite the prices of gas being lower. In fact Autoblog had an article stating that customers are not making shift. It's always easier to blame a consumer without looking at the root cause.
  11. E Class had two bad months with sales down near 30%. To me it is the C cannibalizing the older brother. Which it should, given E class is more generic. It has no V8 and top of the line non-AMG engine making much less than 400 hp, why would one get it when C class is better in every other way, except may be size?
  12. Dear VW, good luck catching on the car maker that makes less than half the number of models than you do, yet sells 60% more units.
  13. Colorado and Canyon are really starting to pump in some solid numbers. Colorado has become the second best seller behind Tacoma and combined the trucks are almost 75% of Tacoma sales volume. The Japanese should be worried. GM's sedan quandary continues with NOT ONE sedan in green and almost all posting double digit losses. May be GM should just abandon making sedans, like it typically does for a declining segment. What's going on with the Sonic? If it wasn't for GMC and Chevy trucks, GM would have seen the dark side like Ford did.
  14. Mazda came within striking distance of overthrowing VW. Given Mitsubishi's resurgence, I would expect it to exceed VW in two-three years.
  15. All this talk about Phaeton, makes me go and get a good W12. I have seen many getting shipped back across the pond due to demand.
  16. Simply Beautiful. Congrats Roger. What options did you end up getting? Did you look into the Gear On Accessories?
  17. Moving the goal posts again, aren't we? A 4 is a 4 doesn't matter if it's a diesel or paired with hybrid and doesn't matter if it is Euro only. Got it, S-Class was a pretender before that and didn't you say it was the best vehicle since Roman Empire's existence? So a pretender was your best vehicle?
  18. Hey dumbass, there has been a 4-cylinder S since 2010. Not a good sign for your so called world's best car.
  19. It seems like Wanxiang guys are Elon Musk fans - took the first and last syllables of the guy's name and made it cute to EL(on) (M)UX.
  20. Yes they do, because they can claim the depreciation, gas mileage or operating costs for tax purposes. Higher numbers for those means more tax deductions. You could possibly find them in junkyards.
