    Maybe they will 3D print it...seems like an interesting fantasy...maybe they can cut a deal w/ Mattel, would make a nice Hot Wheels car in different scales.

    Trends come, trends go...floating roof seems so 2015...boring, boring, boring. What's next?

    Yeah, brain fart on the Audis...AWD, not RWD. The CLA is also in there, but FWD/AWD..not sure if I'd include the Stinger, since Kia is more a mainline brand than a 'premium' one.

    The compact 'premium' luxury market is getting quite crowded... Alfa Romeo Giiulia Cadillac ATS Infiniti Q50 Lexus IS Audi A3 and A4 BMW 3 series Mercedes C-class Jaguar XE Genesis G70

    My '84 Merc 500SEL was silver w/ blue leather..I love blue leather. Really like the new Conti interiors.

    Stinger has a 3 inch longer wheelbase and is heavier according to Wikipedia.

    Bentley doesn't need to go smaller, no point in competing with siblings Audi and Porsche..

    Yeah, all are sports.. I do love racing, haven't watched as much this year as in past years---buying the house and moving, multiple remodeling projects have really sucked up my time and energy. Looking forward to going to some races at Mid-Ohio and other regional tracks next year.

    I have Cox's 300MB service, great for working from home full time and streaming. Testing it, it's pretty consistently in 250-360mpbs range.

    I'm not a big baseball fan, but I'm enjoying the Indians current run. Oddly, I never paid much attention to the local teams when I lived in Arizona, but after moving back to my original region I'm cheering for the Cleveland teams...Indians, Cavs, Browns...wish we had a hockey team. About the only time I did follow hockey was when I lived in Colorado--followed the Avalanche for years. And still a Broncos fan after 20 years. Not sure how it applies to Mercedes vs Ferrari, but I've wandered off topic again.

    Kind of like how the Ford Ranger was it's last decade...

    Yes. Subscriptions are Netflix, Hulu, Acorn, and Sling TV.... already had Amazon Prime and Netflix. All together about $65 a month less than Cox TV was... it's not about money, though..don't want to futz with a cable or satellite service... total on the streaming is about $70/month for the all the services, Cox cable in Phoenix was about $150, with internet on top of that...

    I can't recall the last time I saw one..maybe it's because the styling hasn't changed in a long time that they blend in. I did see a few Titans out and about in Phoenix, knew someone that had one...but they are invisible here in NE Ohio.

    Ferrari's history in F1 is one of periods of dominance followed by fallow periods...boom or bust. Not necessarily applicable to the car market though. Mercedes current run in F1 is an interesting circumstance, considering they were out of the sport for 55 years before buying Brawn (a 1 year team with a long backstory of previous teams). I'd like to see Ferrari back to winning to F1 championships, as well as McLaren (my favorite team from the 80s-90s)---F1 is much more entertaining when one team doesn't dominate but multiple are competitive, IMO...

    I'm a few months into truly cord cutting, no cable or satellite since leaving Az in June. So far, so good. I have an Amazon Fire TV stick w/ Amazon, Hulu, Acorn, Netflix, Sling and network apps. About the only live TV I watch are NFL games and motorsports. Stream a lot of tv shows, mostly British crime like Unforgotten, Broadchurch, Hinterland, Endeavour (excellent Inspector Morse prequel) etc. For American, I've enjoyed catching up on Silicon Valley, Bosch and Better Call Saul.

    Actually, the Project One is more real than the C8 in one sense--nothing has publically been announced about the C8, no concept has been shown, so it's just vaporware at this point...
  17. Robert Hall
    A modern spin on the Golf Country would be fun to see...
  18. Robert Hall
    Audi is in there also with the SQ5, and the SQ7 is coming.. the performance SUV market is pretty crowded. GM needs something in the performance SUV space, an Escalade V-series and Tahoe and Suburban ZL1 versions would be interesting...and something from GMC.
  19. Robert Hall
    Well, they have the Golf Alltrack. Would be interesting to see the Alltrack spec on the 3dr and 5dr versions also.
  20. Robert Hall
    I really like what Volvo is doing.. love their interiors. Kind of like where Genesis is going also.
  21. Robert Hall
    I like the direction Lincoln is going...the market is big enough that there is room for comfort-oriented luxury cars as well as performance-oriented luxury cars, IMO...Lexus seems to try and play both directions, and Cadillac does to a degree.
  22. Robert Hall
    I can't imagine anyone buying a 'hypercar' would care about gas mileage--they are mostly stored, catch on fire, taken to shows, or driven in places like Dubai where fuel costs are negligible.
  23. Robert Hall
    Follow the leader..standard business practice/product strategy for big, established companies. Original was doing something like the Model S. Too radical of a departure from the norm.
  24. Robert Hall
    Well, the Amish are resistant to change..still living like it's 1899 w/ their horse and buggies...
  25. Robert Hall
    Interesting...didn't realize they still had the Frontier in the US..Nissan's small truck has been invisible for years...
