Buick News: Buick to Debut An Electric Crossover Concept for China
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Buick
Interesting story at Autoblog says that in 2015 GM trademarked the name "Enspire" and that this is the Existing BEV Auto listed in Mary Barra EV plans she laid out in November as an Unbadged Crossover for non-US market till Global EV Platform 2 is released on new models globally for 2020. https://www.autoblog.com/2018/04/09/buick-electric-ev-crossover-suv-china/ Totally makes sense to build a Buick based EV for China off the Bolt Platform as they work on version 2 that is to under pin the bulk of all global EV auto's for GM. -
But it is not a Jeep! Nor is it Green!

Review: 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Reviews
I get sporting, but at least around here the few ads for Alfa have been about Luxury and you hear nothing about Maserati. Really left the US in the 90's? Wonder where all the terrible dealerships have been hiding as I saw none on the west coast. Washington they folded up in the late 70's and were gone.- 11 replies

After Looking at the Motortrend link, I think the RS looks better than the Roman Soldier helmet look that I HATED on the Chevy Full Size trucks. This is just sucky!

I will be honest that I do not follow the Camaro or any pony car that close, as such, I thought the two above were the same model year, just different packages. So your saying the one above is the 2017 and the below is the 2018 model? I am highly concerned that Jeep will get screwed up with the Alfa crap platform garbage and that the Wagoneer / Grand Wagoneer will never happen till a new CEO or Owner comes in and realizes the need to clean house and shut down some brands.

Review: 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Reviews
Interior shot alone shuts shouts mash up of miss matched design.Thin side of center floor stack to thick side on passenger side. Glove box door clearly off on left sunk in compared to right side. Center vents of dash rectangle to circle on the outsides, just a mess. I see nothing here that says luxury let alone quality. The continuation of problems with the auto nav system would this far into the launch of the auto when you have to restart the auto to get it to work screams incompetence to me. Just as Alfa left in a flaming mess in the 70's, it came back in that same mess and still is garbage. I see nothing to validate any of the reviews that this is worth $72K let alone $42K. This is what I would call a Kia Competitor from Kia's Early days and I very much doubt it will get better unlike Kia that has a quality product much better than this car.- 11 replies

Toyota News: 2019 Toyota Yaris Sedan Drops the iA
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Toyota
No at least for me it does not. Good solid wiper fluid to use. I like using it in addition to the RainX applied fluid to the whole windshield. I have crystal clear vision with it even on the passes with all the salt solution they use.- 39 replies

Mercedez Benz News V12s To Disappear From AMG's Lineup
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Mercedes-Benz
I am willing to bet that they will push a detuned V12 on the Maybach and have a better performing turbo V8 with Electric assist that they will point at in justifying sales numbers and killing the V12 for the Maybach also. Just a matter of making it look bad on each and every line of auto. No different than any other auto company.- 6 replies

Washington state is one of the states that fully adopted California emissions and last update this state posted was that there are 17 states now that fully follow the CARB emissions standard. 13 fully enforce it on the auto makers. This puts much more weight behind clean air. Known as "Section 177" states, those 13 are: Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington

CVT sucks, people know that, ugly refresh, GM seems to be focused on moving everyone whether they like it or not to CUV/SUV/Trucks as they kill off cars. Yet that just seems narrow thinking in my business book. Why can the American auto companies not figure out how to keep a couple good looking, selling auto's around and still also supply what the bulk of the public has moved too.

If I was to get back into bike riding, it would have to be like this yamaha bike. Nothing Else has really interested me except maybe this since it is an EV!. Or this Or this which is the only Harvey Davidson I would ever consider riding. This new EV startup looks comfy!

Agree that I also do not like the Big Mouth Billy bass look and wonder about why they are not using the 9 spd tranny and are going to a CVT?

Drew, do you know if there is a backwards compatibility list of a head unit that is in this model can work in these older ones? Example, The Head unit in my 2008 Trailblazer SS looks just like the Head unit in my 2006 Escalade ESV. The new unit has far better volume control and other features, so wondering if it would work as an update in my older escalade. Have not found any backwards what was used in this product line can also work in these others.

Been looking at buying an Audio update for my auto's as the Android auto feature is the way to go. Lucky a number of 3rd party stereo systems with Android / Apple are compatible with the steering wheel buttons without having to hack the electrical system.

GMC site has the following listed for building: Shocking to see a Denali XL fully loaded hit 90K. WOW

These all remind me of the Current Gen Honda's now. And what is up with going stupid CVT and leaving 6 sp in the gas versions and not use the 9sp. At this rate, GM is going to lose me to Ford or even non-American. GM, wake up as your killing good product for terrible bland blah auto's.
