It would still out run and probably out maneuver both of those. But have a happy one anyway.

It's Watt you wanted.

I've seen the M-B CLA at the shows a bunch of times, while I never thought it was a great looking car, I never thought it looked "bad". Well twice on a recent road trip that took me through NYC I saw them... what a dumpy looking car in rear! Im sure they are selling them on badge only. I'd rather a Verano and a fat wallet instead or if I have the cash a real Benz in the C-Class.

Actually they flatbed them for service. Rather than you going to the service center, a loaner tesla is brought to you and they take yours.

Habby birfday. I got you a Tesla.

I think the Cruze spyshot thread shows that we may already be well passed "Peak Car". Impss, there is no current day Impala SS, the current Impala, as excellent as it is, is still luxury tuned in spite of its aggressive looks. The old Caprice did lumber, not that there is anything wrong with that.

Yeah, I guess I just don't see the advantage outside of something like a blade server.

They have a 2.0t if you want to size up the 1.6

I'm sure it is.

If you just want to be able to add a second cpu to your rig, I guess...maybe. But you'll might run into license issues if you run Windows, and how many games and regular software can actually use a second cpu anyway?

There is a lot of overlap on the delta recalls

But... why? What is the advantage?

Get 'em all out of the way at once I guess

I could see the Chinese also snapping up some of these brands to gain footholds in other markets. Mazda is on shaky ground, but appears to be stabilizing.... watching the sales of the Mazda 3 here, that should be a bell-weather. But, you have the US Big-3, the Japanese Big-3, and the German Big-3, that alone is 9 companies. Hyundai/Kia isn't going anywhere soon. Suzuki is still selling 2+ million cars a year even though they aren't in the US anymore. Geely is doing well apparently. Tata with Jaguar/LR has enormous amounts of debt, but seemingly is making money. One or two of PSA, Mitsu, Isuzu, Mazda, and Volvo might fold... but not all.. and there are some interesting merger prospects in that list as well. Even with a massive amount of contraction, we're not going anywhere near the total this analyst suggests.

That's funny, I predict there will only be 6 financial analysts in the future. GM Ford Chrysler/Fiat group Tesla Toyota Hyundai/Kia Nissan/Renault Honda Mazda Mitsubishi Subaru (though questionable as integration with Toyota becomes more apparent) Tata/Jaguar/Land Rover Citroen/Peugeot Volkswagen Group BMW Mercedes Volvo Suzuki Geely And then the smaller ones that are still kicking: Saab/NEVS Fisker Isuzu and that's just a partial list. Will there be some consolidation? Absolutely... but we don't see that list cut down to just 6 manufacturers.

Well yea, but I think the expectation was that there was to be a redesigned model XK. Still, there is historical precedent for this move. From 1975 - 1996, it was called the XJ-S and was the companion car to the XJ Sedan. The current XJ is garnering a decent amount of goodwill, so no harm in this move.

Happy bd df

I was thinking more about an event at a race track

An ELR parked in the lot at the office in Queens NY I've been working in from time to time. The Uber that picked me up for my trip to the airport today in Pittsburgh as a Chevy Volt

I still need to drive one
