I loved the Velite concept auto. I can see a powerfull Turbo 4 banger being called Turbo-Jet.

Electric cars still put wear and tear on the roads so they should be taxed on a per mile use to help pay for the roads since they do not use petrol

I prefer the long-bed version, but...

I see plenty of early 80's GM trucks around Washington. -

If you look at the pic of the rear passenger side you can see all the rust bubbles over the tire on the bed. Looks like it needs a new bed. From the looks of it, if you can afford to put in 3-5 grand for replacement seat, carpet, bed, paint, it does appear to be a solid restore project. -
I disagree, while I do drive a well insulated SUV, I do pay attention to the noises around me. I just wish Harley Davidson would be forced to put real mufflers on their POS bikes as they just rattle everything and are so hard on the ears. I cannot believe more people who ride them are not totally deaf. So far nothing that company has made has impressed me.

Still but ugly but better with the bad ass Monster 4x4 system. I will have to say while the car is ugly, I do like this commercial! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ve4221Knn0&feature=player_detailpage

Chevrolet News:Chevrolet Readying A Malibu Refresh For 2013
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Chevrolet
What really hurt the new car is the nose. It looks old and they had make it taller for the new crash standards in some countries. It almost looks like they has designed the car for another nose and then grafted this one on when they got the new rules. The old car flows well as I can feel it when you wash the car. The sweep of the roof line is graceful. But it has its faults too as the rear looks like they go to the tail and ran out of time and money to finish it. I never have liked the tail lights. I am hopeing they can redo the nose with the new face and better fit it with the car. This is not the only car with tall nose issues. Even the Fords look ok but they would look much better with a few inches lower in the hood area. The Tuarus looks almost SUV like coming at you. Then the rest of the car was made so tall to compensate for the tall nose. Your right it is that nose that is higher and gives the car a brick like stance. Some of the rules/regulations are killing design flow for an issue that affects less than 1/10th of 1% if even that. The gov's around the world are so trying to protect to the point of actually hurting the drive of humanity to take any risk at all. How will we ever get out into space to explore if we are so scared of hitting a person who runs out in front of an auto. -
Be intersting to see how many end up as road kill before they require some sort of artificial noise to tell auto's their electric toy is in their blind spot.

I agree, people who shoped the CR-V against the Encore were shocked at how cheap the interior was in comparison to the Buick and that they would rather have the Buick over the Honda. Will be interesting to see how many conquest customers Buick can win with this hot little number.

Interesting but looking at the two pictures, I like the silver car stance and just something about it flows right. The marron car just reminds me of a camry and carries the wrong stance. -
That is not to say that all Baby Boomers like the Float ride. There are some that preferre a driving machine. At 45 I have not even reached middle age yet and I want my driving machine, not a Lazy Boy ride! Personally I think 67 was a perfect Year!

G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Chevrolet
I agree that this car could have swagger if they do a sports package like Ford did the SHO on the Taurus. As far as reducing weight to help get the MPG up, make the front nose and rear trunk all alumin so it becomes one large crumple zone to protect the people inside. Yes more expensive to fix, but very safe and should easily reduce weight. -
WOW so they are actually used then. So far I have seen not one car plugged into the hundreds of charging stations I find around the seattle area. It is like the 1/10th of 1% crowd pushed through due to having the money to win over the scum in the capital and they had the tax payers put all these charging stations in without really looking at how many auto's there were to use them. At least here in washington they went over kill on installing these things.

BMW News: BMW 3-Series, Sorry 4-Series Coupe Gets Leaked
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in BMW
Really you like the interior? The zones, chopped up look. It has no flow it just has the start trek pop up window in the middle, a couple random sections that to me do not mesh, the round control knob seems like an after thought by the stick shift. It just seems dated on the inside with plenty of after thought.- 12 replies
