  1. It's not like Buick couldn't change the catalog tomorrow.... At this point, they're selling as fast as they can build them.
  2. They've been selling at a rate of over 60k a year with the existing engine.... I don't blame Buick for not giving away the upgrade for free.
  3. The 138 hp 1.4T is standard across all trims. The upgraded 153hp 1.4T DI is available on all trims above the base level as an additional cost.
  4. It's situational. Anywhere you can fit a DOHC V8, I can fit a pushrod multiple liters larger, and probably add a supercharger on top. Pushrods are so much smaller in their eternal dimensions it lets them have much much larger internal dimensions. And really... the CTS-V engine is far superior to the M5 or E-AMG in power... and not just by a little bit... there are significant power advantages in the CTS-V.
  5. You certainly have a way with (not) words....
  6. I think its platform is going away as the Cruze/Volt moves on. They'd have a much bigger redesign challenge than you suggest.
  7. You can find ELRs with under 5k miles on them for about 50% off sticker.... they'll even extend the warranty for you.
  8. My desktop at work is still saying the server is down (moving to a new server)but the site works from my phone. Just a heads up incase this isn't isolated. Refresh your DNS or reboot. All that is showing is that your DNS servers haven't received the updated location of the website yet.
  9. It's a shame. If I lived in a different climate, I'd drive one.
  10. looks quite communist... How have you been WMJ?
  11. That's more than most Scions lately.... so now you know why they had to die.
  12. The new server seems to load pages a lot faster... you guys should try to rough it up a bit.
  13. one last test and I think I've fixed the slow post issue
  14. all lux manufacturer will be moving this direction
  15. a traditional automatic will never ever be as crisp as a PDK.... the physics simply won't allow for it. That doesn't mean it can't shift faster.
  16. This. I'd probably pick a different color.... I love the greens they are running now. But yeah, just get what C&D got.
  17. And we're now on the other server.
  18. I've been here, just doing a lot of work in the background. Probably shifting servers here soon.
  19. Cadillac sells commercial vehicles now... they sell special livery editions of the Escalade and XTS.
  20. Well now it could be The Best... or a Nissan... or a Mitsubishi..... they've got options.
  21. Heck, Tesla hasn't finalized the Model-S or Model-X design and they've been out a good bit now.... They make constant rolling changes throughout the model year.... Tesla isn't a traditional manufacturer... we shouldn't expect them to act like one.
  22. I feel like we're being had on these low displacement turbo engines..... They may look good on EPA tests, but they haven't been impressing me in practice.
  23. I'd love to start a thread about awful/crazy/weird automotive advertisements... maybe once I get home. might try and do a listical.
  24. Can we all just stop and admire the toilet paper?
