  1. Nice...but I like both the RAM and F series better right now. Subject to change.
  2. Lancer evo has an utter garbage interior and really is hideously ugly. The CTS thing is fair because the special edition in question is about 48 grand which is assinine for any Imprezza that can't attain Lunar orbit. 9 speed isn't terrible behind the V6. I am trying to throw something domestic into the mix because I am thinking about buying another car. CTS and Cherokee are the only two domestic cars I like enough to drop coin on...maybe Grand Cherokee. WRX STI and base WRX are probably the only two Asian vehicles I like enough to drop coin on...outside of perhaps the Stinger. GTI...Golf R...and maybe a CPO A4 are the only things from Europe. Nothing else built is in budget and interesting personally. Bit of an existential crisis as an enthusiast as I have never had this few cars I like in terms of ownership.
  3. I would rock one. I would prefer a Grand Cherokee or perhaps something from Europe personally.
  4. Nice thing about the Trailhawk Cherokee is it comes with a real rear locker. If prices on used WRX were not stupid I would consider that route.
  5. Proof that Hybrid and EV drive trains can be a part of our enthusiast future.
  6. A little bit of GM horsepower...
  7. I am not sure how a hybrid sTI will go over with traditional STI buyers. What I can get for STI money now....a Mustang GT and a Civic Type R would be more desirable. And I still love the STI.
  8. Having driven them yes, I agree one hundred percent.
  9. The stuff from Benz is vastly better looking. Of course, the same could actually be said of Hyundai. BMW seems to be suffering an existential Crisis as of late... What is it BMW stands for or is supposed to be any more?
  10. More like this...they say at the end of the advert "if you have a party in the back Ford has business up front." Perfect as a lot of people have a party in the back for those with business up front. Nice to see, isn't it?
  11. From a purely subjective viewpoint I really like the feel of a GTI on an autocross course over the feel of a the Focus ST. That being said...I am very sorry that sport compacts seem to be going away...and from a personal stand point...I am really thinking about a Cherokee as my next vehicle. AWD goodness for Ohio Snow, and I love the idea of finding one CPO with the Trailhawk package. And the Focus ST...in the end I will miss it. One of my sons friends had a black Focus ST that he totaled while being stupid...I miss that car. Yes...but as enthusiasts we have choices. I love living in a country that gives me so many choices...
  12. Too many electrics will flood the market and overwhelm it, just like Hybrids did.
  13. If you look anything like your avatar I can see why. And he did a lot of good things as well. Antisemitism is really scary. I am politically VERY critical of Israel...but I also realize Jewish people have been subject to thousands of years of antisemitism. Agree...godspeed and get well my friend.
  14. Ford and GM are learning to get out of the game where they have six months of inventory of a particular car line sitting and needs to be discounted and sold a minimal profit or a loss. For a street car it is a thousand times better.
  15. And hate to say this, but at $40K I can buy a gently used CTS-V also....yes...different caliber of car but...for the money... Also...once you goa bove 30K you are starting to talk Mustang GT and Camaro SS/V8 Challenger money. LOTS of options in the thirty plus range. Which is why i doubt we will ever see a Turbocharged BRZ....and why Nissan has dropped the price on the badly badly dated 370Z. Ford and GM are the best buy for performance over 30K....unless you want to spend a LOT of coin and wind up with something AMG-ish from Benz. They are fun to hoon around an autocross or Rallycross course at an SCCA event. The thing is....Subaru is able to play this one smart because they only build a limited number of these cars which keeps the resale high. Domestics are learning not to be everything to everybody... Which is why I am not so sad about so many cars being cancelled. I like the idea of Ford going one hundred percent in on the new Bronco like they did the aviator...and of Cadillac being 100 percent in on the next gen of V cars.
  16. The one that has grown on me the most is actually the Focus RS, which sadly is no longer produced. The next gen Focus like Europe got in an RS trim would be killer IMHO.
  17. Heck...i would even take lovely American Women with Asian iron.
  18. I usually walk about 5 or 6 miles a day. 100 is a good number for living or driving fast. With luck...I can drive 100 when I am 100.
  19. In my ideal world we would be two teenage boys cruising my old hometown in a Cutty 442 and burning the living PHOKKK out of those old 50 series bias plies on the rear while we were listening to some Rock on the 8 track...
  20. This....if I live to 78 or 80 I will be happy.
