  1. Actually, I would expect them to build a Aventador and F12 beater using the Corvette Z-06 motor as a base. The Z-06 is within 75 horsepower of the F12 and 50 horsepower of the Aventador today and out torques the both by 141 lb-ft. Then there is also the fact that the Corvette's motor weighs substantially less than either of the V12s..... the fact remains that one of the best upgrades one could do to either the Lambo or Ferrari would be to drop the Corvette Z-06 engine in the back hatch for an instant and substantial increase in torque with a significant decrease in weight. Put an underdrive pulley on the supercharger and you'll even be ahead in horsepower figures as well.
  2. My issue is that Google will likely be tracking your location and trying to sell relevant ads to show you on route. Get in the Google car... you are the product, not the car.
  3. The 6.3 is hella smooth. Not particularly difficult when they are basically built to order.
  4. With every model that offers Denali trim selling at minimum 25% of them as Denalis... there isn't much motivation for GMC to do much more than chrome and different interior plastic. If you could get 25%+ of Terrain customers to take a $3000 up charge just for that, wouldn't you?
  5. I hope there is more to it than just chrome trim... but with how they do the Acadia Denali and Terrain Denali, I doubt there are any powertrain changes in the works. I'm sure you'll be able to buy a 4-cylinder Canyon Denali if you wanted one.
  6. Well those are just the supercharger locations. I would expect that in the cities, the number of generic charging stations is rather limited as well.
  7. Why not just use Ampera? Not like Opel is going to be using it anymore.
  8. Was never really a fan of the Bolt name anyway... wouldn't mind them changing it out for production.
  9. The natural evolution of the Crown Vic. Fast, agile, AWD, and plenty of room.
  10. Looking forward to it!
  11. I still wish that Cadillac, Chrysler, or Lincoln had snagged the Pullman name before Benz did. It is an iconic American name.
  12. Both interiors are fantastic... I really like both cars. I probably prefer the C-Class because I like the squishy ride over the more sporty ride of the ATS.
  13. It's true... and an ATS-V will likely wipe the floor with the first CTS-V. Interior is substantially better than that car too.
  14. I don't think GM has a single vehicle in their entire lineup that could even begin to take on the Explorer Interceptor Utility.... and that's kinda sad. At least Chrysler could do a Durango Pursuit.
  15. There needs to be a next Chevrolet SS. Knightfan brought up a good question when I met him for dinner last week: What happens to the Cop car once Holden becomes a marketing company rather than a manufacturing company.
  16. Erm... yeah.. that... it was a long night/week/month
  17. I'd rather the 2.0T, but otherwise mimic your sentiments.
  18. They IPOed too soon. Now it's harder for Musk to plow more money into Tesla without setting off alarms.
  19. I doubt we'll get that one. I still don't understand Hyundai Kia anymore. What is the point of the Kia brand? that's where I'd expect commercial vehicles to go and where I wouldn't expect a vehicle like the K900 to show up.
  20. Don't they already have premium models in North America? It is an interesting time for commercial vehicles. Purchasers of such vehicles are going to have some of the widest number of choices in decades.
  21. Just picked up a brand new one as my rental for the next two weeks. Will have it over about 1200 miles total.
  22. We have a blogs option here. It just isn't activated. Again, it depends on how you want to do things and your end goals. If you have an example website that you'd like the general format of u could show me...
  23. Dfelt, I'm not doing it because of parking. I'm doing it because I'm traveling so much
