    Saw a black & red Ariel Atom in traffic this morning...first time I'd ever seen one on the road...what a cool car. Though I think it would be much more fun on a winding backroad than in 5 lanes of morning rush hour traffic.....also saw a white and gold Dodge Ramcharger, battered and worn but still on the road..one of the last sold in the US ('90-92 or so).

    Looks like it was designed by Mattel.

    That's for fleets, I would think. Still going to be some fleeted, I would think.

    Size and V6 availability...it's not as cramped as the weak 4cyl only Malibu. Sounds like it's priced comparable to the LaCrosse, Avalon, Maxima, Azera, Credenza, and Taurus which make up the full size FWD segment. I'd still rather have a Charger or 300, though

    A CUV is a poor substitute for a station wagon, though...too tall w/ the cargo area too short...too much like a minivan in drag.

    I doubt if the electronics weigh very much...

    Different idea, but Isn't the Falconer V12 based on SBC architecture?

    With a bit of restyling to the nose and tail, new interior, and an LS engine this could be to Corvette what the Panamera is to Porsche...

    Have they done anything to reduce the weight on the new trucks? Or are they still 3 tons?

    Noticed the '14 Impalas were in stock at the local Chevy store..they have 3 in front of the showroom--black, dark red, dark blue. Sharp.
  11. Robert Hall
    Hmm...almost 2 months since the first post in this thread...about time for the next new vehicle? Still a bit early for the '14 full size trucks..

    Great vid...liked the little details like the Cadillac script in the taillight lens. Noticed in the gauge cluster that the gear settings read PRDNM. M?

    I suspect this is intentional to limit volume to avoid upsetting the CAFE results and to avoid stealing sales from other models.

    Been there done that..didn't know that was an XJ problem also..was definitely a WJ problem. Though w/ the WJ it's bottom of the seat frame that breaks where the tracks are welded on. R

    I'm sure you're right, but I'll never understand that mentality. I'd much rather wait and get precisely what I want. This sure seems like an intentional limiting of production. it is true. when people come shopping, they are most times buying very quickly. if not that day, usually within like a week. 'scratch the itch' Yes. I couldn't imagine waiting 90 days for a new car. I could see figuring out the configuration I wanted online and then having the dealer find me one and that taking a week or so. Though at some point in my life, I'd really like to do one of those order the car, go to Germany and pick it up, drive it around Europe, then ship it home deals...have a few friends that have done that.

    1985, IIRC. Though there was the Reatta after that, based on a shortened E-body platform.. The Cascada is one Opel that seems like it would be a natural fit w/ Buick.
  17. Robert Hall
    Interesting...so this is a new pushrod V6.
  18. Robert Hall
    I haven't seen one of the '80s AMC Renaults in ages...can't recall the last time I saw one.
  19. Robert Hall
    Interesting.

    Which, from GM's standpoint (not the dealers'), is quite dumb to offer... That would mean the return of GM's old school cannibalization again... Then again, I have long thought GMC was pointless and redundant... never understood the need for two overlapping truck brands.

    Happy Birthday!

    Saw a white '14 Grand Cherokee on the freeway this morning...didn't realize the '14s were out yet. New headlights are a bit garish w/ the light pipes.
  23. Robert Hall
    Chevy dealers have probably wanted one of these for years to keep buyers away from GMC dealers.
  24. Robert Hall
    Chevy needs to keep the Equinox the size it is as a midsize CUV and add subcompact (Trax) and compact CUVs below it, to line up better w/ Toyota, Hyundai, Honda, etc.
  25. Robert Hall
    Nice interior...Chevy has needed a King Ranch and Denali competitor for a while. Edit: couldn't recall the name of the Ram equivalent--thought it was Bighorn but found it is Laramie Longhorn.
