  1. Why? No tax incentive in a used EV. The Volt isnt on this list though.
  2. I'm pretty sure that was a 2002 only color on the avalanche.
  3. Moar diesels please!
  4. 25 hp is nothing for the CTS-V engine, I guess if there is a market for it, why not?
  5. If there are buyers that are looking to lighten their wallets then Cadillac should be there to provide that service... however, I'm not seeing the performance increase from fender flares and special seats... the CTS-V already offers a $3000 seat option that is simply perfect anyway, it's just not tied to a "black edition" package.
  6. that 2-stroke/4-stroke switching idea sounds neat.... but from the sound of it, they need to work on the NHV side of things still
  7. A lot of money... and on what? They already have new platforms, their drive trains are pretty good.... what else is there to spend that kind of coin on?
  8. I'm not exactly sure where, aside from swapping out some body panels for something of a lighter material, they would increase the performance of the CTS-V much more. It already has the worlds best adaptive suspension, I suppose they could make a "trackier" track mode and maybe an underdrive pully on the S/C.... but neither of those would be costly upgrades.

    EV Jeeps

    Only the Tesla Model-S had suffered from any of the symptoms you're talking about. The Nissan Leaf hasn't and the only known fire in the Volt only happen after it was wrecked and left on its back for days as part of an experiment. The Telsa's battery is mounted where it is for ease of fast swap-outs as they get their battery swap network up and running. There is no reason a Jeep EV would have the battery in the same place.
  10. Toast
  11. The minivan market appears to be dying, so no need for two from the same company. I like the idea of bringing back the Pacifica.
  12. Neat color! I'd like one of these in an interesting yellow.
  13. Is it specific models?
  14. Eh, you take a bet either way. Going diesel is still better financially. Per gallon the cost difference may seem huge, but per mile the difference will be minimal.
  15. That's like saying "oh good! He won't need to cover his badly infected eye with an eye patch!"
  16. You don't think he'd clash with Ghosen at Nissan? He's almost certainly not going to GM. Lot's of bets seem on Chrysler.
  17. Well these changes are done, so I kept them separate.
  18. I was cool with it till I saw the front end!
  19. you mean something like this? Cadillac Launches CTS-V Black Diamond Edition
  20. in that case, the rumors of a FWD Commodore are pretty strong.
  21. yeah, just stick with the OEMs or equivalent if they aren't too hard to get to. I tried the iridium tipped ones in my Toronado and noticed no change except for a lighter wallet. I can pull and replace all 8 plugs in about 30 minutes... so this last time, I just put in standard copper tip plugs.
