I can't believe I said I liked the front end of the One-77. I really don't like the way the intakes cut into the headlights.

On the other hand, I do like the front end of the new Lagonda. This car is much better than the Lagonda crossover they showed a few years ago. It does remind me of the '80s sedan in proportion and stance. It's not terribly exciting, but I still think it's handsome enough.

Wow, that's quite a spectacle Moltar.

 

 

I really wish some one could point to marketing that says these bland boring lemming cars sell because of  X, Y and Z reasons. I just do not see why someone would want to buy such a boring auto.

99% of drivers just want something cheap, economical and reliable..they don't care about styling.   

 

 

Definition of a Lemming. So Sad So Bad.

 

Just because someone doesn't care about cars doesn't mean that their a mindless lemming, it just means they have different priorities in life.

Saw my first Lincoln MKC today.

Also saw some little blue electric car, looked like from a car sharing service.

On my drive home from Ohio on Monday I saw a Ferrari F430. I think it was black.

I never knew Chevy had been making a Niva. That's a great looking mini off-roader.

Beautiful Brougham.

Visiting my family in Ohio this weekend. On my way here Friday evening, I saw:

Gray '13 Mustang with the vanity plate "CTHULHU"

Brown Triumph TR7

What looked like a very old slingshot dragster or something with a similar layout, yep out on the open road

Today we had lunch at the Quaker Steak & Lube that was recently built in the area. Inside they had a white/pink/gray Packard Caribbean convertible up on a lift stand, and a race modified C3 outside.

I also have to agree with Drew, the Voltec powertrain makes the Volt the most versatile electric car on the market. It's 100% GM's own, and they will continue to improve upon its range and performance. As someone who regularly drives long distances and can only afford one car, it's the only electric I would consider.

But that's moot since I'm getting an Elio

I would T/A, but I'm not a truck guy at all. And I don't have a family.

Two college guys rolling in a white late '70s Eldorado convertible

'55 Bel Air pillar coupe with painted bumpers

Blue '68-'69 Dodge Coronet convertible

Blue '65 Plymouth Valiant convertible

Basketcase '58 Nash Met on sale for $2500 (tempting)

Red Avanti awaiting restoration at a garage

Yesterday: pastel yellow Ford Maverick sedan, and this:

Today: pastel yellow '49 Plymouth coupe (I think?) and a red early Mustang notchback.

There's a snake in my boots!

I'd want mine to make the sound of the lightcycles from the original Tron movie.

Anywhere west of Indy.

I rather like the Ghost, and the Wraith doubly so. A convertible would round off their "lower" line quite nicely.

I think even the Phantom Drophead and Coupe have a sort of massive elegance to them.

Rolls' are about moving around in the most comfortable way possible, and letting everyone know that you are very comfortable indeed.

That Maxima concept— dayummmmmmmm.

Thanks for the update, dfelt.

The cab at least is based on Luigi Colani's semi-truck concepts. Don't know how much he had to do with the rest of the rig.

It sure is uh... expensive.

Today I saw:

A red Volkswagen Type III fastback

A worn white '63 Plymouth

A tan Chevy Astro that had been awkwardly chopped into a pickup (5th wheel hauler maybe?) with a guy riding in a rear facing bench seat in the bed.

An older car. There will still be plenty left to enjoy.

I just want to see them made and sell. These cars don't deserve to die.

Time for a new thread, ocn!

S-class outsold the 7-series, A8, LS460 and XJ combined!  Owning the segment.

Reason enough why I'd rather have an XJ instead.

Maserati could sell on sex appeal alone. To me at least.
