  1. I like the Lagonda name, but wish it would be used on something that wasn't SUV. One of my british detective heros drives a Lagonda
  2. well, it still feels superior to the Taco
  3. Kia and Hyundai both did it. I see this as Mitsubishi's reboot.
  4. I suppose the TLX would handle better than the Accord on the track... but that really doesn't effect my morning commute does it. After that, I don't see much substance the TLX gives me that a nicely equipped Accord couldn't.
  5. I've recently rented a Nissan Frontier.... if I were buying today (note, before the GM twins arrived) this would be my pick. When Suzuki announced they were closing, I was actually looking at Equators (a Frontier badge job) to pick up cheap and run into the ground... but they went super quick with very little discounting.
  6. I suppose an AWD Cadillac ATS would work for him too... but he is pretty enamored with the entire Buick line right now except for Enclave (too big). He really really wanted the Verano, but no AWD nixed that idea.
  7. Maybe they saw the GM twins and gave up. I wonder if the Ranger is still due to return.
  8. The A3 is a handsome little premium sedan. It may be in the running for Albert's Buick Encore replacement n 16 months unless Buick releases the next gen Verano with AWD.
  9. I'm referring to the just-introduced, all new, 2015 Chrysler 200. A much nicer package than the rehashed Sebring you are referring to.
  10. Again, moving target. Look at that Malibu and impala. Impala is class leading, Malibu is so so. Chevrolet needs a much better car to compete with the fusion,chryco once again is wildly behind the curve. The 200 is a confusing car. It feels more premium than others in its price class, but it is also much smaller. It is kind of like the Regal in that regard but with a lower base price.
  11. Sending Jeep to GM to "run properly" assumes facts not in evidence.
  12. yet? We missed posting about it... but the Enclave is going on sale in China soon... being exported from the US.
  13. GM moved 60,000 Enclaves and nearly 90,000 Acadias in 2013 at roughly the same price points. I think Lexus is aiming a bit low in their sales potentials.
  14. Don't forget they have maseratti to feed too... and now that Masi is selling $66k base price LX cars that might put some crimp on moving Chrysler up market at all but Alfa should be Fiat's BMW fighter. Let Chrysler take on Buick, Lexus, soft Benz and the like... but be big, bold, American style luxury. They have the right idea with the 300, but they need better execution there.
  15. The 200 shows promise, though admittedly I haven't driven it yet.
  16. I wonder if they are still Renault based
  17. Why make 3 or 4 versions of the same car!?
  18. I am giving someone a gift...I'd like to include something special in the package... so I need you guys to help me find something. I need a high-res, desktop wallpaper worthy picture of a Toyota Camry or Corolla, beige preferably, in some elegant pose. Toyota PR pictures preferred. Lets see who can come up with the best "gag" for this gift!
  19. the Soul is not a crossover, it doesn't even have 4WD/AWD available much less any off road abilities.... it is a tall wagon, nothing more.
  20. What I don't like about the Dart is the ride and handling. It's bad enough to be a real deal-breaker for me. Cars like the Elantra and Forte aren't remarkable in this department, but they aren't bad. The Dart felt a good 15 years behind...like they found the tooling for the old Neon and said "Hey! This will fit!"
  21. that looks like a take on the current Impala rear design to me...
  22. No more so than any other crossover
  23. well ... if anyone was going to do it... it might as well be Porsche
  24. I know... but was still fun too see.
