  1. The Escalade is not a flagship of any kind because outside of brands that only produce trucks, I don't think and truck/SUV is the flagship. And your assessment of the interior makes me laught.
  2. I think a CTS wagon can sell decently. Sure, it's not going to do more than 1-2k/month, but the added cost of making one is probably relatively low when the sedan is already planned, and if it's sleek and stylish I see no reason why someone wouldn't pay $38k for one when people pay $35k for a Subaru wagon.
  3. There is a Special Edition Accord with the I4.
  4. This was a comparison of entry-level family sedans, and these examples were probably pretty close to the bulk of the sales in the segment in terms of price. I don't know why the Fusion wasn't included though. I'm sure they'll do a sport model test in the future, but I seem to recall they did one not too long ago and I doubt there are many new entries. Maybe when the Aura RL comes out they'll do a new one.
  5. New computer? 1440 x 900 is pretty good, mine is 1680 x 1050 and I don't think I'd want anything better unless the screen was bigger. Pics are really small on my 15.4" display with that good of resolution. Thanks for the update Z, it looks AWESOME!
  6. I bought my dad two dress shirts and some corduroy pants today.
  7. I'm not certain, but for all those who don't like the tails I'm guessing you could swap in the Outlooks for a couple hundred bucks.
  8. Wow, that's cool! Thanks for posting.
  9. Maybe they wanted to show the concept at NAIAS and Chicago (since it hasn't been to either yet), but didn't want to call it PreVUE because people would see how much different and worse the real VUE looks
  10. It was really only 9 points off from first place, as the "Gotta-have it" factor is totally BS, especially how they rated the Accord the most "gotta-have" when it is the oldest vehicle. I also don't see the point of Fun-to-drive, because that's just based on scores from handling and powertrain, and is nothing they didn't already evaluate. Basically, that's just giving more points to cars that handle and accelerate better, when they already awarded points for that. So, I guess you could say it was really 5 points away from 1st place. I think the Malibu may be able to take first place, but there will be a new Accord then, too.
  11. Damn that sucks, sorry to hear about that.
  12. Lookin' good!
  13. Wow, this is much better than recent Lincolns. Tone down the grill and they have a winner, at least on hte exterior.
  14. Meh, I think Jaguar can do better than that.
  15. I'm sure they must do studies to figure out how effective he's been, and I doubt they'd be thinking about expanding him to more divisions if he wasn't doing a good job. Tiger is very famous and champion, I think he reaches a lot of people and people associate him with the best.
  16. What about a certain Series III V6?
  17. So NOS, did you get good enough at shifting to have a race yet?
  18. Affordable: How about some Kooks headers, a Borla catback, and a Procharger or Maggie installed on the GTO. Money no object: A black Z06 or a certificate for a 2010 CTS-V Coupe.
  19. I think I like it more than the current one, but neither knocks my socks off.
  20. That's pretty cool, though I think the name is dumb.
  21. GMCs are generally a few hundred more than their Chevy counterparts, though that option costing that much more is odd. If you like the Sierra better you will probably be able to get the dealer to come down to a price close to that of the Silverado if you try.
  22. I think the chops look weird because the original picture is at a slight angle, which makes the front end look as though both sides are pointing inwards, when they're not. I think it will look much better in real photos.
