  1. I'm strangely electrified by that comment.
  2. It is beyond ridic to me that Fiat is now portrayed as a Mopar product through service, parts and accessories.
  3. My current automotive obsession is the Subaru Crosstrek. Last time I was close to one was in 2013 before I bought my VW Beetle TDi. I test drove one. At that point, it was mostly the interior that turned me off, with a huge percentage of hard, black plastic that conveyed a dismally cheap, drab feeling. Since then, improvements have been made inside the vehicle, along with a minor freshening on the outside... plus I swear I'd call this new color Petty Blue. It looks really good on this little CUV. Subaru calls it Hyper Blue.
  4. A waste of money to reintroduce this brand in the U.S. FCA's money should have been spent building better Dodges and Chryslers on this platform, with modern engines suited to mainstream American tastes.
  5. ZL1 in that intense green color if it makes it to production... and in an about face, I would choose the dandy new 10-speed auto after hearing the audio of the car running the track.
  6. I was actually lot lurking yesterday evening. Looked at a Spark 1LT manual in Splash (aqua blue color) with sunroof, stickered at $15.6k, and a Sonic with wheels and lights package (16" alloys and foglights), stickshift 1.8L in Kinetic Blue for $18.6k. The Spark interior, although notably tinier, is much more attractive. Where I find the Sonic exterior still fresh, the interior is a complete turn-off for me. Still, I find the updates to the Sonic exterior to be necessary now that I've seen them. Spark was parked next to an old-style Spark, and looking closely, it seems like the roof and the upper door cut-outs are the same between the old and new. Can anyone confirm or deny the new Spark is on the same platform as the old, just heavily facelifted? I know it's clearly based on the Opel Karl, but I am not sure of the Karl's origins.
  7. This is a gem.
  8. Haha, as soon as I sawr the back end of the sedan... this is what I thought of! Hi SMK!
  9. I think it looks great. I could never imagine myself trying to clean bugs out of those intricate headlights on the old one. The new wheels set it off nicely. I want to see the interior, the old one's interior turned me off, it was so gimmicky... I was ready to buy an RS hatch but decided against it because of the cheesy interior. I bought the Beetle TDi instead.
  10. The extra gingerbread tacked onto what was a clean design does nothing. I would rather have the Miata fastback that is coming.
  11. Olds, OLDS! Settle down a bit. Just... unplug... you'll feel better. Stupid automatic braking. One more nail in the coffin of driving enjoyment.
  12. He said "steering rack". DUDE, it has no steering "rack"!
  13. Absolutely unreal. This is how it's DONE.
  14. Hey there, it's been a while. Good to see some of the old guard return.
  15. I know you live in an impoverished nation, and I'm sorry for that, but there has never been a modern Cadillac built on a B-body, it was C or D.
  16. Yeah...most of them are in trucks... Point is in my favour... And now...watch this: I think Ive made my point. And...to boot...but I wouldnt bet all my money on what Im about to say just yet...but I think that electric vehicles in Quebec out sell V8 cars...cars is the keyword... Yes...take all the V8 cars out there...Mustangs, Camaros, Vettes, Hemi 300Cs and Chargers, Challengers, Mercedes Benz S classes and the like and I think the Tesla Model S out sells all V8s in Quebec... Your point being what exactly? All those turbochargers, all that lack of displacement... and the simple reliable 5.0 gets the same or better fuel mileage in the real world... where ppl actually use their trucks.
  17. Haha, I can tell you've been issued a tight sweater, pom-poms and saddle shoes. GO TEAM!
  18. The best minivan out there, shows Chrysler's experience in this genre runs deeper than anyone. I would get a Touring model. So you're saying second and third rows fold flat into the floor? The hybrid is of course a money loser, forced on Chrysler as a compliance appliance.
  19. The nameplates alone will add 50 horsepower with no other adjustments.
  20. Tesla Model X, of course... I know, but why is it so daggone UGLY? Because ALL soccer mom SUVs are ugly....every single mother$@#$%!% one of them!!! But...because this one is a Tesla...all is good in the hood! No they are not there, Skeeterbite. This Tesla should be crossed off everyone's list, like this: X
  21. Tesla Model X, of course... I know, but why is it so daggone UGLY?
  22. Ew, what in tarnation?
