    Hmmm...but the Impreza was a FWD/AWD car...it's not a 30-50yr old RWD, BOF, hardtop with a carburated v8...how could you possibly say anything nice about it?
  2. Robert Hall
    WOW..quite a change from an old Caprice that I thought was your ride. The S5 is an incredible car...I'd go for it. I love Audis.

    I can see them continuing to offer the Suburban and other large SUVs...I can see these models returning to their 1970s market place--commercial use and use by people that really need them---people that tow travel trailers, boats, horse trailers, etc...not general purpose family wagons as they currently are.
  4. Robert Hall
    No suprise...this was inevitable given the market forces at work.

    I know quite a few 100k+ earners as well...and I'm one of them. We work hard for the money and many of us know how to manage our money. Reg's comments seem like sour grapes or class envy from someone who isn't making the bank they felt they were entitled to. And $100k or so isn't remotely rich, it's upper middle class... mildly affluent.

    FWD for the mass market, RWD for luxury and performance. That's the way it's been for a while, and will likely continue.. the vast majority of drivers don't care how a car handles, a FWD generic is fine for them.
  7. Robert Hall
    Similiar...lots of differences in the details, though..
  8. Robert Hall
    Interesting..I see they copied the wierd inward-tilted gauge surrounds from M-B and Audi...not bad, but way too much gray plastic.

    Weren't the Zetas delayed to get the 900s to market sooner? Of course, with conditions now, the spending on the 900s seems like a collosal waste of time, what with 5000-6000lb SUVs and trucks out of fashion...

    Yes, I drove an '08 Jetta rental around Cincinatti and Dayton in March...pretty comfortable and smooth, great ergonomics.

    I think if I were to seriously consider a compact for a commuter car, the Civic Hybrid would be at the top of the list, along with the Jetta diesel.. I've ridden in the current style Civics, they are quite nice.

    Not me...we have Mexicans for fast-food jobs here. (reality in AZ and CO).
  13. Robert Hall
    Those are only available as hardtops, though.. no 'b-pillar option'. I rarely ever see them with all the windows down, though...with A/C, that's a rarity.

    The VXR would make a nice addition to the Saturn Astra line in NA, I think..
  15. Robert Hall
    The Lancer is also rather ugly and plain inside and out....the Civic looks slick and modern inside and out...too bad they don't sell the hatchbacks here.
  16. Robert Hall
    Yes, along with Fox News..all right wing neocon-biased nonsense...
  17. Robert Hall
    Whatever.... the conservatives are full of sh*t, and with an oilman in the White House the last 7 years (an incompetent one at that), the neocons are in bed with the corrupt oil companies...
  18. Robert Hall
    A lot of bluster and pointless ranting (with a shot of xenophobia thrown in) that ultimately is meaningless and futile.
  19. Robert Hall
    As it has been for quite some time...RWD for performance cars, sports cars, and premiums, FWD for the mass market.
  20. Robert Hall
    Quite a few, as GM has proven over the last 25 years (their era of FWD generics).
  21. Robert Hall
    Happy Birthday, PCS..
  22. Robert Hall
    Interesting... I wonder if what happened next is that security tackled Dollinger and tasered him..
  23. Robert Hall
    They probably wasted the money on the '09 Ram...which will prove to a wasted investment if the gas prices stay as they are...
  24. Robert Hall
    Or Europe for that matter..they have reasonable sized trucks and vans (all diesels) for commercial use...(MB Sprinter, VW LT, Crafter, Ford Transit, etc...)
  25. Robert Hall
    An outsider could help, look how Lutz helped...IMHO, GM has too many lifers in charge who seem to have little grasp of the state of the auto market outside of SE Michigan.
