September 2016: General Motors Co.
A Horse With No Name replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Yes, with 4 of my children in college I can completely, completely relate to what you are saying. And I feel a great deal of pain about the SS. Amazing car....GM got it right with this one.- 19 replies

Frisky's Personal GTI Long Term Review
A Horse With No Name replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in Reader Reviews
They have a very nice, linear power delivery. Tuned GTI's can make amazing amounts of power. -
Given Teslas shaky financial status, the Bolt and the Fisker are both huge. I seriously am beginning to doubt we will even see an actual model three built by Tesla-he is hemorrhaging cash at a prodigious rate, and the merger with Solar city does not help matters either. Thankfully, we have GM and Ford also. They have both driven a model S, taken it apart, and driven it again. They have the battery technology to start building an assortment of affordable electric cars any time they want, which should be in the next ten years with multiple models from both of them.

Right, because that philosophy worked out so well for the Chrysler 200. I do think that you have hit on the biggest issue it did not sell though-we lack good paying jobs in this country that we need to sustain the kinds of choices we as Americans want.- 19 replies

September 2016: BMW Group U.S.
A Horse With No Name replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Not much of a distinction IMHO. That being said, I do find BMW more appealing than Benz, especially the MINI lineup. But I am an odd car buyer. -

GM is holding quite steady and has been in business steadily building cars for a century or so. Do you not think they understand the market? Also, see the BMW sales for the month, they have lost their mojo. GM is not Jeep. One could just as easily criticize Porsche for not having 7 SUV's....different strokes for different folks. I used to think that, but a small SUV might be kind of cool. i really liked the Bronco in the other thread, and if Chryco ever got it together on the Renegade I would be in their showroom ready to sign....- 19 replies

Regardless, I would take an STI all day long over this civic. Honda is just one more car maker that has lost their mojo methinks. I thought the Honda fanbois had gone the way of the DODO bird until a bunch of older Civics showed up at an autocross a couple of weeks ago. Unreal.

Import them from Germany and charge thirty grand more, he might be impressed. ...and even holding steady when a lot of other people are down is an achievement in itself.- 19 replies

September 2016: BMW Group U.S.
A Horse With No Name replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Dated and not good to begin with. At least Lexus has decent build quality and resale to go with their somewhat odd styling. But BMW resale gets as bad as Benz. My son looked at a clean 2012 BMW M5, clean Title, like 80,000 miles....they wanted $12,500....on what was originally a very expensive car. $12,500 will buy you a 2012 Malibu or Sonata with lower miles....but is in that ballpark. Lots of BMW and Benz products run through the Ohio auto auction at absurdly low prices. Repair costs and reliability have a lot to do with it in both cases. -

Cats methinks are often smarter than humans. You have my deepest sympathy. Now go to a vintage truck show before that awful image burns itself into your brain and you are more damaged than you already are. Which is sort of saying something, actually.

September 2016: Nissan Group U.S.
A Horse With No Name replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Again, weak passenger car sales from a weak lineup. Rouge is decent, Kitano is overwhelmingly overpriced and outclassed in its segment, as is the Maxima. -

September 2016: Volkswagen of America, Inc.
A Horse With No Name replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Dismal, and may actually never improve substantially. VW will never change their internal corporate culture any more than Lucy will let Charlie Brown kick the football. And both will have a similar result...being flat on your back and looking stupid.- 1 reply

Ultimate Dream Garage: Average New Car Edition
A Horse With No Name replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
1LE is an excellent choice as well. Were we to bend the rules and allow six cars....hmmm...the new Camaro styling also really does it for me. I liked the fifth gen but the current car...yowzers. Almost E type Jag levels of gorgeous. -
Ohhh absolutely yes. Thank god GM is in the clear of this mess! ...although I think I should be thanking the invisible flying spaghetti monster for this....
