  1. I like the Vision concept..strongly RWD proportions, neat rear detailing. The Kai concept is a pretty slick compact hatch, like the interior.
  2. I liked the 3000GT (GTO in Japan), esp. the hardtop convertible version. Had a buddy with one years ago, rode in it a few times. Reminded me of a Japanese Trans Am...
  3. Definite family face on the new Cherokee...
  4. Yes..updated version of the 2006 generation...called Pajero, Shogun or Montero depending on the market.
  5. The forward curve of the rear door window and the shape of the rear quarter window just doesn't flow...seems awkward to me.
  6. That p That's just a photo of the Holden Trailblazer...based on the Colorado. Nice front, nasty greenhouse in profile.
  7. Hmmm....Thing EV...call it the 'Thing-e'...
  8. Found this article on faux Pumpkin Spice products, pretty funny.. https://www.buzzfeed.com/jenlewis/pumpkin-spice-up-your-life?utm_term=.tpRMVBrKq#.rm6pbKw2o
  9. Seasonal randomness--I saw Pumpkin Spice flavor dog treats out for fall at the Pet Supply store. I wonder if the auto parts store has Pumpkin Spice wax and motor oil?
  10. Maybe they will do a largish square crossover called Montero.
  11. ^ demented idea..love it. I'd love to see the modern Corvette engine in a Pro-Touring style '72 Impala Sport Coupe...
  12. Is that a vintage Buick ad? Great artwork...
  13. Wow...I can only imagine what all they had to modify to get that engine to fit in the Mustang II..pretty cool.
  14. I can see using a corporate GM LS V8 in older GM products, but definitely not in non-GM brands...just seems lazy to put an SBC in an old Ford, for example.
  15. Yeah, the name seems like a natural. I was thinking they could do an Electra 225 w/ 225 volts, but isn't 240 the standard..
  16. A '59 Electra hot rodded as an EV 'Electron' would be an interesting project..or use a Chevy Volt powertrain.
  17. I wonder if they have a Dodge Journey replacement in development..it's been around almost a decade...
  18. Yes...ergonomics and cabin tech are the highest priority for many nowadays. 0-60 and gas mileage are secondary.. (as I get older, comfort and convenience trumps everything else..maybe I'm becoming a future Buick or Volvo driver..).
  19. Well, the Cruze is better..it's a real car for the real world, while race cars have no function off the track. 0-60 and quarter mile times are simplistic performance measurements that have limited utility when comparing cars in the real world. More important measurements of real-world performance are seat and steering wheel adjustment, cupholder capacity and adjustability, location and number of USB jacks, etc..
  20. Went up along the Lake Erie coast again today, to a couple beaches and various small towns up to the PA line. Maybe the last nice weekend of the year--70 and sunny. Great fall colors. Saw a variety of interesting cars out and about, a couple Model A Ford roadsters--one pale yellow, one black...I suspect the yellow one had been modernized because the tires and wheels looked more modern.. also saw a clean white '59 Thunderbird coupe. Saw about a dozen modded Wranglers outside a BBQ joint, must have been on a Jeep rally. Saw a clean blue '68 Camaro SS, and a what appeared to be a red w/ white stripes '70 Camaro Baldwin-Motion Phase III. Looked just like the photo..don't know if it was an original or a clone, but sounded brutal.
  21. Other than Jeeps, I wonder what the sales # of RHD Chrysler and Dodge models are...in the few hundred per year, maybe?
  22. Took a drive along the Lake Erie coast yesterday afternoon, beautiful day...saw a white late model Jeep Wrangler in my rear view mirror with a modified grille that spelled out 'OHIO' (which read OIHO in the mirror). Also saw a clean red '75 Cutlass coupe on a small town used car lot. Heading to a beach today, may see more interesting cars.
  23. Audi buyers don't want a Mercedes clone.
