You'd have to do almost the entire interior wrong. For example, the dashboards are all unique, so buttons and such would be in the wrong place. The door panels are unique, the window/seat control panel from my car won't fit a Riv or Eldo. I think someone would catch that.

Well there's one vote for reopening politics....

After a brief hiatus, Ram is reintroducing the EcoDiesel for the 2020 Ram 1500 and in doing so, snatches away the torque crown held briefly by GM with their inline 6-cylinder diesel. The 3.0 L V6 Diesel in the 2020 Ram produces 480 lb-ft of torque at 1,600 rpm, 20 more than the 460 in the GM Inline-6, while horsepower increases to 260 hp at 3,600 rpm, a bit lower than the GM's 277 hp and the Ford Powerstroke 250 hp. The EcoDiesel is a DOHC V6 and achieves these numbers with a new generation water-cooled variable geometry turbo charger, higher compression ratio, redesigned cylinder heads, lightweight aluminum alloy pistons, and a redesigned EGR system. The EcoDiesel will be available in all models and configurations, including for the first time, the Ram Rebel. The 2019 Ram 1500 Classic is offered with the previous generation of this engine. The engine will be produced at FCA's facility in Ferrara, Italy. View full article

I suspect we haven't heard the end of the FCA-Renault merger.

That'd be stainless steel.....

Cadillac should have snagged the Pullman or Autobiography trademark before Mercedes and Land Rover respectively. Does anyone use Portfolio?
-
Can they put the 2.7 in transversely where the 2.0 currently sits? I'm thinking XT4 here.
-
A subtle flush one. That modern one doesn't work. The car needs to have a more fuselage style and can't have the flat face wheel opening.

They have CNBC on here at work and they keep talking about how great of a negotiator Trump was and how we avoided the tariffs. Easy to "avoid" tariffs when the solution to them was already agreed to 3 months ago.

After Nissan having a heavy hand in helping to scuttle the potential merger between Renault and FCA, Renault is getting payback by helping to block corporate reforms Nissan is attempting to put in place after the arrest of Carlos Ghosn and poor financial performance by the company. Nissan and Renault are fighting because Nissan abstained from the vote on whether to merge, and following that, the French government did as well. Without the cooperation of the French government, FCA pulled out of the deal. Renault holds 43.4 percent of Nissan and is upset with the representation they would have on the board and committees under the current plans. The French company says that their abstention from voting is not final and can change pending changes to the proposals. Meanwhile, rumors say that FCA and Renault are still looking for ways to salvage the merger while Nissan is pressuring Renault to reduce their holdings in Nissan. Nissan has been seeking more autonomy from Renault ever since the Ghosn scandals. View full article

You're supposed to pick a favorite color of the car I posted, not the mustang.

I think you done messed up @Robert Hall
-
Eh... the G80 doesn't do it for me, but the G90 does..just not as much as the K900 The Korean version of the G90 is better
-
I get to post the CT6 in black twice today! Yay!
-
*shrug* I think the K900 commands attention when seen in the steel.
-
Something is up because those should not be the same part number. I did some more research @Paolino and yes you can swap it without an ECU change. It looks like it would cost $600 to $800 to do.

I know really? Trump faking some news? It had me like...
