    That's an interesting mix up to make. Was out for a walk around the neighborhood tonight trying my best to fend off a possible sickness before my vacation. Spotted this:

    They already stated that Chevy is leaving europe and Opel/Vauxhall is going to be their everyman brand there. We'll get the higher trim Opel models here as Buicks. I notice that Cadillac doesn't even bother offering the V6 ATS there... only the 2.5 auto, 2.0T Auto, and 2.0t manual

    well vote in the poll

    probably too tough to get emissions certified for not enough return on fuel economy.

    I think the point is that without the proper sales channels, it really doesn't matter what the product is. Luxury car buyers are not going to go to the dusty, unmarked corner of an Opel dealership to buy a luxury car.

    That sounds like a fun drive!

    This is the closest (technically) Cadillac dealership to the place I stay in Cologne. Cologne is the 4th largest city in Germany. This is a 45 minute drive to the neighboring city of Düssledorf. Here's another one.... This isn't one of those puzzles where you have to stare at the picture for a long time to see the problem....

    I think before any issues with product are addressed, Cadillac needs to fix and replace the current dealership network in the EU. .... right now in Germany, if you want to buy a new Cadillac, you have to go to the back of an old Esso/Exxon station.

    That particular 5.7 V8 is a 4-cylinder at highway speeds.

    I think it would be fun!

    That's actually not too bad looking. I like it better than the Ford, Chevy, and Nissan.

    Highway? Did you leave the parking brake on?
  14. Drew Dowdell
    In this class right now, I'd probably end up in the Mazda 3.

    I've been at 31 highway in a RWD Hemi and 36 in an 8-speed V6 RWD, 35 highway in a 5-speed RWD Charger, and 33 in a 5-speed RWD Challenger. The LX cars have always substantially outperformed their EPA rating.

    So does a 300C.

    We've already had the airbag bolts replaced once on the CR-V... I guess this next step is the whole airbag unit? If so, it would be a while before they spin up enough manufacturing capacity to replace all of the airbags out there.

    At $65k, the CTS V-Sport is a much better place to spend your time... and it doesn't look like a hump-back whale.

    WHO THE F CARES!?!

    Subaru is all about being outdoorsy, earth conscious, and apparently, hiking. Not sure how a RWD sports car with limited seating and storage, even an all electric one, fits into that niche.
  21. Drew Dowdell
    No... it is an internal grenading. I've already had it happen to our CR-V a few summers ago. After I bitched out Honda on Twitter, I got them to "goodwill" 50% of the replacement cost. There is/was a class action lawsuit in NJ about it.
  22. Drew Dowdell
    The BR-Z, as nice as it is, just doesn't fit the Subaru image.
  23. Drew Dowdell
    Cadillac needs to stand firm on pricing as long as they feel their cars are worth the price, feature for feature, relative to the competition. Let the people hunting for a deal on a luxury car go to Buick or get an Impala.
  24. Drew Dowdell
    Great... a new cop car face to look out for. =/
  25. Drew Dowdell
    Yes, my issue is with Hypocrisy. These guys have recalled as much as GM has, yet there is no one crying river on it. Honda recalling airbags after 14 years? I want to see Blumenthal calling for a Congressional hearing for that and those victims' families standing holding signs saying "Honda is Bad." The bigger question... how long did Honda know about it? Honda knows about an A/C issue in all 2002 - 2007 CR-Vs, Civics, Accords, and Odyssey where the compressors grenade and the entire A/C system has to be replaced. Not being recalled... if you're out of warranty (as you most certainly are by 2014) you are SOL.
