    Interesting...didn't realize PSA had the DS brand in Japan...surprised they chose Peugeot for the US instead of DS.

    Two new midsize sedans in a shrinking market, nice to see. I wonder when the next gen Mondeo will be seen...

    Red is better than silver, white, or black though....silver, white and black are way overused in the auto industry and soooo dulll....

    Noice...greenhouse reminds me of the LaCrosse. Interesting lighting details front and rear. Nice interior.

    That red seems to be the only color they use for car shows and press photos, though.

    I warned her against it...but she has a thing for older Cadillacs as a commuter car. Her '15 Trax only has 15k miles, not driving it much.

    Yeah, with the land border between N. Ireland and Ireland there is speculation now the relatively open border would have to have customs check points.

    I could see this being used for airport shuttles...the 'minibus' passenger version of the Sprinter is used for that in various countries in Europe (ridden in them), those would probably rack up a lot of miles.

    The Republic of Ireland is staying in the EU, though...not part of Brexit which is the UK (which includes Northern Ireland).

    My sister's '06 STS has about 135k miles. It's back in the shop again w/ more electrical gremlins. The engine has been fine, she's put about 5000 miles on it since getting it last August.

    Nah, the '72 Fury. The Kia front kinda reminds me of the Fury bumper shape.

    Haven't seen that..the only current Sci Fi series I watch are Star Trek: Discovery, The Orville, and Doctor Who.

    It seems the horsepower/top speed/0-60 race keeps getting one-upped with each new hypercar...where is it going...5000hp, 350mph top speed, -1 sec 0-60? Ferrari styling hasn't appealed to me in ages...I still love the looks of 80s super cars...Testarossa, F40, Countach, 959...

    Has some beautiful details...

    They are so boring and predictable...they all look like they were drawn by boys going through puberty or something out of a cheesy sci-fi show. And they always catch on fire. Just carbon fiber toys....

    Driving skills and car maintenance in general are so awful in the US I couldn't imagine the level of carnage with autobahn level speed limits here..Americans in general are too incompetent. They would be playing on their phones, ironing clothes, eating, etc.. IIRC at one time the German automakers had an agreement to have 155mph as the top speed on their cars.
  17. Robert Hall
    That seems to be where things are going pretty rapidly...
  18. Robert Hall
    Interesting concept..I keep seeing the '72 Plymouth Fury front end with that 'barbell' nose theme..
  19. Robert Hall
    True...maybe for the US they can call it CX-4...CX-30 just seems so non-conforming.
  20. Robert Hall
    Odd naming...would have thought they would have gone with CX-4. CX-30 sounds too much like an Infiniti name. Good looking CUV, though.
  21. Robert Hall
    Speed rating on tires are often a limiting factor...
  22. Robert Hall
    112 mph is 180 km/h...maybe that has some significance. Otherwise, seems like a random number.
  23. Robert Hall
    Higher speed crashes tend to have more fatalities than lower speed crashes, regardless of the maker of the car. And in other news, boiling water can burn one's hands.

    GM alone probably had at least that many dealers. I remember as a kid in 1980 every little town in my area in Ohio had a new car dealer or two it seemed. Anecdotal, but probably similar across the country. Today dealers seem to be concentrated in larger locations, corporate owned chains, and auto mall locations close to major cities and freeways. Of course, there were a lot more stores period back then, not just more car dealerships. Doesn't seem that long ago since it's within my lifetime, but nearly 40 years!

    I could see a speed limiter being an issue on a Porsche, but on a Volvo? Has anyone every actually gone over a speed limit in a Volvo? Speeding really isn’t in the Volvo image.
