Bleh... Don't like those at all.... Do hope, though, that they're not scrapped/crushed.

It will target the AMG S-Class cars. That what M's are supposed to do, no? I meant what engine would they use? They already have a twin turbo V12 in the 7-series, although that engine is less powerful than the M5 engine, but only by a small margin. And they have the Alpina with 540 hp. M7 would be a better name, but they already have performance 7-series in a sense. Alpina B7 is built by an outside company, so BMW really isn't offering something to compete with the AMG S-Class cars straight from their own factory... As for the engine, I'm sure the BMW Motorsport folks could have some fun in playing with the TT V-12: I'm thinking 600hp-plus here...

Basing a "major life decision" on the number of plates your car need to have? Hell no!

M 3-Series GT??? Jesus... M7 would be cool!

Chevrolet News:Spying: 2015 Corvette Z06 Goes Out For A Drive
ZL-1 replied to William Maley's topic in Chevrolet
Nice Personally I think we'll see a supercharged engine in both Z06 and ZR1... Two different tunes would work well and GM could even, eventually (just speculating here), bring back the LT5 designation for the ZR1 engine... -
Anyone use Nitrogen in their Tires?
ZL-1 replied to Rvinyl.com's topic in Product Questions and Reviews
My dealer (I swap tires there because non-OEM changes have a tendency to screw up the tire pressure sensors) uses air, therefore I use air. Though N2 does reduce deflation, none (or virtually none) of the roadeside fuel stations here have it, so it doesn't make much sense to use it... -

Seriously doubt it: the Defender is JLR's hard-core off roader and I expect it to remain so.- 4 replies

Which, for an urban environment with minimal needs other than carrying 2 or 3 people and while being on a tight budget (either by necessity or by a conscious choice of frugality) is really all one needs... Why have a ton of gizmos if they break down all the time?

Acura News: American Honda CEO Outlines Plan To Fix Acura
ZL-1 replied to William Maley's topic in Reader Reviews
True. Wonder, though, what kind of brand positioning is Honda thinking of: step-up from Honda like it is today (only better executed), or will they risk setting up a dedicated luxury brand? Second option would be immensely expensive if the engineering isn't somehow shared with the Honda brand...- 10 replies

Cadillac News: Rumorpile: Cadillac ATS Coupe To Debut At Detroit
ZL-1 replied to William Maley's topic in Cadillac
I'm thinking something half way between the A5 and the CTS coupe (sort of Audi A5-like, but with a shorter decklid). -

Chevrolet News:More In Store For The Chevrolet Colorado
ZL-1 replied to William Maley's topic in Chevrolet
They should take the notion one step further and give US buyers the Chevy Sex Truck... Old fashion Luv don't cut it anymore... Seriously, now: other than the Holden Ute, GM doesn't have anything that would work in the US. The Brazilian Chevy Montana is too small for the average US tastes.- 16 replies
