    Talk to them, not through them.

    Where will it be assembled? Thailand?

    You cannot hear it running... because it's NOT RUNNING... Might help then if you turn it on.

    There should have been assurances put forth when the Canadian Federal and Ontario provincial governments bailed them out that GM would keep X products being assembled in Canada.

    Mercedes rebadged ( extent of which is unknown ) Nissan = bad? Chevrolet rebadged 100% Nissan = good? Seems Chevy is coming across as an also-ran in the Van segment.
  7. FordCosworth
    For a second there I thought you were talking about the rebadged Nissan van with the bow tie on it. My bad.
  8. FordCosworth
    I thought you were just trying to hammer home how absurd that comment was.

    Huh? The 1LE will start just above a loaded Shelby and annihilate it? I think you mean ZL1. And in that case, I'm more interested in seeing how that car and the Hellcat compare...a more direct competitor. But if you ask Bong he said the weights are similar or some crap so they have to compete.. *rolls eyes* Right. I forgot about that. Wasn't there something about the weight distribution also makes them competitors too?

    First, yes the quotes are strange. Don't know what happened there. Second, the evidence contradicts your credibility claim, thus making your opinion on it invalid in this case. Sorry but those are the facts right now. Perhaps claims of bias and credibility should come with actual evidence instead of half baked comments imported from said site. Except that I'm not the one making the claim of bias without proof while the actual evidence contradicts your claim. You'd do well to understand the difference before deciding what is "bloody hilarious" here. Again, you made the claim so back it up with some facts and not here say BS that is merely echoed from users of another site. I asked a question on how a car not available for sale is included in a competition. I said nothing about biased. So please don't put words in my mouth. Including car(s) not available for public consumption, in my opinion, hurts credibility. What evidence contradicts my claim? This evidence here? Oh wait... http://gmauthority.com/blog/2016/07/2017-chevrolet-camaro-1le-doing-battle-in-best-drivers-car-competition/

    The 1LE is in BDC? I don't recall any " first drive " or test yet. And I also don't see that package available on Chevy's site either. How could one include a car that's not for sale yet?Last I heard, the 1LE packages are available in late 2016, on 2017 SS and LT V-6 Camaro. It was on their SnapChat while they were testing a couple weeks ago. Almost positive it was the 1LE not the ZL1.I'll try and Google some $h! to figure it out. Thanks for the reply. Even if it's not the 1LE, but is in fact the ZL1, that car is also not available.Either way, how can car(s) not out yet, be included in any sort of comparison? BDC has some odd eligibility requirements. More more what Olds says rings true - M/T's credibility is questionable. How can you question their credibility when there has been zero official information regarding the 2016 best drivers car participants? There is no grand conspiracy here, only huge tinfoil sales. It's silly and half baked to presume otherwise at this point. That is not the issue here though. He is saying the mere inclusion of the 1LE is an indication of bias (or credibility issues) on MTs part when there is no proof of such. That kind of conspiracy theory thinking needs to stay on other sites. It is way played out here. First, yes the quotes are strange. Don't know what happened there.

Here's one guy using an opinion to tell another their opinion isn't acceptable. Thats bloody hilarious!!!

    Canadians purchased nearly 30,000 Ford and Lincoln vehicles last month, as Ford Motor Company of Canada, Ltd. sales were the best on record for the month of July and up 10 per cent from a year ago. For the fourth time this year, more than 13,000 Ford F-Series trucks were sold in a month, as F-Series set another monthly sales record. "Record sales in July further cements Ford as the number one automotive brand in Canada," said Dianne Craig, president and CEO, Ford of Canada. "Canadians continue to choose Ford vehicles over the competition, with strength across the lineup in July – from Ford Mustang, to Ford Escape, to another monthly sales record for Ford F-Series.” Lincoln posted its 11th consecutive month of sales growth, with sales up 8 per cent in July, led by sales of the Canadian-built Lincoln MKX, up 84 per cent.

    Even when Gen 5 ZL1 and Z/28 where production cars at the same time, it was the Z/28 that was dubbed " King of the Pony Cars ". And that ZL1 would hand the Z/28 its breakfast everywhere but a road course.

    I about spat out my bbq ( avec Montreal Steak Spice ) reading the opening to that above post

    There won't be a new Challenger ( and Charger ) for quite a few more years, 2020 at the earliest from what I've read.
  24. FordCosworth
    Mustang up 13% - 9564 vs 8482 Nice Challenger up 7% - 5619 vs 5241. Not bad Camaro down 26% - 5520 vs 7469. Yikes
  25. FordCosworth
    Yes. Tomorrow, tomorrow...Like the ZL1 and 1LE And unlike the SS, the MR will be standard and not an option. On a near $50K car, it damn well better be standard. As it stands, you can get MRC cheaper on a 2SS than you will be able to get on the 2017 GT350. Yes the MR should be standard equipment on 50k + cars like the GT350 and Corvette. Nice to Ford rectify this.
