    Totally subjective as MB has NOT built the best cars in the world for the last 40+ years. The S class has been shit at times especially in the 70-s to early 90's. 80's being the worst. Far better built options so get a reality check, every automaker has good and bad times and right now for the last 15-20 years the S class has been successful due to being mostly sold as a taxi and a ubber rich auto with crazy priced options that have allowed it to be at the top of their game when other auto companies fell.

    He could have done so much if he did not take the billions of profits and waste it on Alfa and Fiat.

    BMW Z4 spy shots say Rebadge Miata built by Toyota! http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/bmw/z4/94096/new-bmw-z4-fresh-spy-shots-reveal-more-of-new-roadster So found this, this morning and I have to say that Toyota will come out of this with a new Supra that should be very interesting and yet as I state in my title, I see more than a little Miata in this cameo car. According to the story, BMW and Toyota are building side by side on the same lightweight platform that underpins the I3 and I8 this new Z4 and what will be the return of the Toyota Supra. This should be an interesting release!

    EV's will bring us our biggest splash of new platforms. Let's face it, we are in the Twilight Dusk of ICE auto's and as they do fade, the new platforms are going to be the Hybrids / EV's.

    So in reading over so many reviews on the CT6, one thing becomes very clear. Cadillac has a superior engineered auto. Personal preference comes heavily into play in regards to the interior of the CT6 and like SMK a Rabid Fan Boy of Benz, the other auto web sites pretty much also are either biased heavily by their fan boy love of Benz or one of the other auto makers. Neutrality of being a journalist is becoming very rare in deed. http://www.motortrend.com/cars/volvo/s90/2017/volvo-s90-t6-cadillac-ct6-20t-mercedes-benz-e300-luxury-sedan-comparison/ http://www.caranddriver.com/cadillac/ct6 http://www.consumerreports.org/cars/cadillac/ct6/2017/overview https://www.cars.com/research/cadillac-ct6-2017/ http://autoweek.com/article/drive-reviews/first-drive-2016-cadillac-ct6-fresh-take-american-luxury https://www.kbb.com/car-news/all-the-latest/2017-cadillac-ct6--video-review-and-road-test/2100001417/ http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/first-drives/reviews/a28012/2017-cadillac-ct6-review/ There are plenty more sites with reviews but you clearly have your camps of lovers all things German, Lovers all things Asian and the final camp of Lovers all things American.

    Continuation of the slow death of Diesel.

    Very Cool Why do they not offer pictures of this and only a generic release of the details. http://www.gm.com/mol/m-2017-may-0524-yukon-denali.html Motor1 had some pics:

    Check out this V roasting on the Autobahn. At 11min is where you see him hit the no limit zone and run up to 292kph. Pretty sweet and stable run.

    @oldshurst442 I agree, that self parking is overrated. I feel that this makes people lazier.

    Only a matter of time before this would be seen, but in Washington where Prius are very popular, I am seeing more gen 1 & 2 types on the side of the roads. After all they are over 100K miles and in many cases people are not doing the maintenance.

    SMK complain all you want, fact is the CT6 interior is every bit a competent interior and very competitive to the E-class interior. 2017 E-Class 2017 CT6

    Nope, not hellcat, the POS auto line called Alfa and Fiat. Idiot Sergio took all the profits and blew it as usual on useless attempt to make the world think that italy can build autos. Fiat and Alfa sit on the lots here by the thousands. No one wants their junk. Sergio failed to reinvest properly in what would sell and instead flushed it down the Italian craper on Dead Alfa and Fix It Again Tito cars.

    Very Cool Wonder if any will get exported by the wealthy middle east? Also wonder if Canada or the US will crash the first one and then which state or province,
  15. G. David Felt
    Totally agree, that I love their warm brown interiors.
  16. G. David Felt
    Got it, good point, we do seem to forget the original start of using a specific moniker. Thank you

    Very cool that Cadillac has used it on and off, but since it is on their best performing auto that beats the germans, one does have to wonder if they are thinking Victory!
  18. G. David Felt
    Awesome write up, very enjoyable to read. I suspect the usual suspects will nit pick this apart as it still is not a german sedan.
  19. G. David Felt
    V for Victory! That is how I suspect Cadillac see's the V but would be nice to have some heritage behind some of this crazy stupid single, double, or triple letter designation.
  20. G. David Felt
    Agreed, but I did think it was a quick smart way to keep things going. I do wonder how long before we see other providers who are making all the other components as pure electric.
  21. G. David Felt
    I see no reason they should not do this, performance is always wanted. I do disagree that they will not do this to the Genesis line. Stupid.

    Warp motors, their 9, 11 & 13 both in dual motor or single can hook up to existing transmissions and they have a bracket that fits to the front to allow running all existing hardware. Pretty slick setup. If Subaru goes this route it will be interesting, but I also wonder how sales will go when competition has twice the battery range.

    Thought this was funny on an editorial write up about flying.

    Interesting, now Volvo is killing their Diesel engines as they focus on EV to replace them. Volvo credits Tesla for creating EV demand, says they will stop developing diesel engines to focus on EVs https://electrek.co/2017/05/17/volvo-tesla-says-stop-diesel-electric-vehicle/amp/
