    Same kind of people who can't be bothered to clear the snow off their vehicles before driving them..

    I think Kia markets the Stinger as a Grand Tourer, the G70 has a tighter suspension and is presented as a sport sedan by Genesis.

    The Sportwagen impressed me despite its obvious power deficit. Granted it was probably a foot shorter, 600lbs lighter, ~200 of that in the engine bay over the front wheels. Maybe the new Outback and Legacy will take a leap forward the same way the Camry has.

    I don't know, I was really underwhelmed by that combo in the Outback, I think it was in 2016 when I drove it after trying out a Sportwagen with the 1.8T. Just felt like an old massively understeering car from 1999. Softly sprung, CVT, larger ground clearance did not do it any favours I guess.

    Offer the 2.4L turbo motor from the Ascent to make it interesting.

    For the winter climate here for year round use if I had no little kids maybe something like a G70 AWD with the same motor as the Stinger GT. Maybe an A4.

    I got nothing unless you have a preference for for Buick badged Opel "FWD based transverse engine lease appliances" to borrow from Robert.

    Subaru had a V6 Legacy GT around 2005.. I think BV had one for a while. I'm looking forward to reading how the Buick compares to the Stinger GT.

    Could have had fun with that yesterday after we had just over a foot of snow in 24 hours.

    I could see them doing a performance variant of one of their CUVs, but not on the current generation products. Perhaps in a few years if the next gen RX arrives on a new platform.

    Pricing is out, around 35 grand destination in for the base AWD, 40 for the EXL. Not too bad, everything is expensive these days.

    Yep, GM's partner is Shanghai Auto/SAIC. http://www.saicmotor.com/english/index.shtml

    I guess it does ok in crash tests http://www.chinamobil.ru/eng/zotye/t600/?view=crash

    Very Audi ripoff'ish, lets see how it fares in the crash tests if they do go through with it.

    For its time I don't see how the BLS is worse than the people mover CUVs Caddy is selling now. They could have just brought the AWD 2.0T and 2.8T versions over.

    Standard of the World though

    I sometimes search for old online photos of my neighbourhood, the best ones available are of the public spaces like libraries and fire halls, as well as of the buses that ran in the 20's, shortly after the neighbourhood was established. I wonder how many of these buses are preserved somehere. TTC had a lot of GM buses in their fleet from the fifties to the eighties. I'm partial to the streetcars though. A few times a year in the summer they bring out the old models on a few routes for a weekend.

    Layoffs? Party on shareholders..

    Currently, I live in an inner suburb and work in an outer suburb, so traffic is not too bad going opposite of what the majority do, 30-40 minutes drive, evenings tend to have more traffic than the mornings. Thankfully I commute east in the evenings so sunsets are not a problem. My wife hops on the subway to downtown and has a similar length commute. Her immune system seems so much better than mine with all that exposure she has had over the years .

    Most young people here aspire to live downtown and have a walk or short subway ride to work. Of those that can afford to live downtown (our 650 sq ft condo rents out for $2400), few can also afford the parking, insurance etc for a car, so we don't even own a parking spot for that condo (was 75 grand If we wanted one IIRC).

    One of the perks of getting a new car is Android Auto and/or Apple Car Play.. Why spend on a new vehicle that doesn't offer either? Might as well just go the CPO route.

    Hey Infiniti, how about infotainment that isn't ancient in a new platform next time..
  24. frogger
    There definitely won't be any big car payment for me until the mortgage debt is under 500k lol.

    We have only had 2 or 3 inches of total snow this winter season so I'm actually sort of looking forward to the storm this weekend. The cold coming with it I could do without though.
