VW News: Arteon On Its Way to U.S.... Finally.
Paolino replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Volkswagen
It's funny, I don't use the power I have or had in a LaCrosse, but I definitely appreciate the smoothness and refined nature of a V6. I just don't like 4-cylinders honestly.- 29 replies

Wow, Hyundai has been desperately trying to get me into a new vehicle and I kept saying there's nothing I really want and I wanted to lower my payments off the Genesis if I was going to stay in a lease... if this comes out in time, I'd lease a limited trim of this.

Well, how much of a market is there for minivans these days? I thought most just went the CUV/SUV route... -

Chrysler News: FCA Expanding Michigan Production Capacity
Paolino replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Chrysler
That's great news... did I miss the news about Chrysler? Are they really a 1-vehicle show (I don't consider the dead 300 or the fact that they have the Pacifica and Pacifica plug-in as 2 vehicles) or is something else coming? -
Well, that is a confusing situation. There's a CPO 2018 Avenir and 2 Premiers that have my attention, but even though I can afford them, the rational side of me says, "You should prob just get the Essence... or why not that cheap 2016 Sport Touring with only 15K miles on it... that's a steal!" I also have to really drive the new one because I need to see if I would be able to 1) get in/out easily since I'm tall and the rooflines are low, and 2) if I can tolerate the start/stop. Supposedly it's good, but having had POS cars while in college, there's that anxiety you get when you feel the car has "stalled".
-
That's probably what will happen. I am just then stuck between 3 different LaCrosses
-
I do but honestly, it's the way the car drives that puts me off with the Genesis. The LaCrosse although older is smoother than my Genesis... the Gen drives sportier, which I can understand people want... I want the opposite. The Avalon, well, I guess I'd have to get the upper trims to really appreciate the interior and I was trying to keep the price down a little. I love the top interior trim of the Avalon (even if it has the center stack I'm not a fan of)
-
You don't think the grille is too big? And the Camry is the same V6 and I've heard the same things about its speed.
-
I can't get on board with the interior or exterior of the Avalon. The grille is way too big and I hate the center stack.
-
My Genesis lease is up in August and I've been giving great thought to my next move... purchase a CPO LaCrosse (which is most-likely what I'll do), or, and I'm ashamed to admit this... get a new Camry XLE V6.

Audi News: Audi wants to give you all the green lights
Paolino replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Audi
Cool idea, but I can't fathom it working by me... the roads are too congested to affect things negatively. -
Yeah... my friend wasn't thrilled about that, but nonetheless, he shelled out the money, like Tesla banked on.

DRIVEN: 2017 Cadillac XT5 Luxury 3.6 AWD (preowned vehicle review)
Paolino replied to regfootball's topic in Reader Reviews
I liked the SRX more than the XT5... it's not an ugly vehicle, but it's uninspiring with a bland interior, in my opinion. The problem is, rather than building on that, they're releasing a bigger version. What's Cadillac's ultimate goal now? And if they're changing it, do we have to change the names of the vehicles yet again? -

2020 Lincoln Aviator Returns After A 13-Year Absence: Comments
Paolino replied to William Maley's topic in LA Auto Show
I'm so unexcited about this.. granted this doesn't cater to me, but nothing at all made me think, "Wow!"- 19 replies

That's right, because Mercedes would never build a minivan... they'd make their "Sports Activity Vehicle"...
-
Is this even necessary... like the only thing that makes it relevant to today seems to be the EV part... but you can do that in so many other ways. It's a shame Chrysler is going to have no sedans left... hard to think of Chrysler as a "carless" company... my earliest memories of relatives vehicles were Plymouth, Chrysler, Dodge. Hell, I was taken home from the hospital in a Plymouth and burned my legs as a toddler on black vinyl seats in the summer.

Buick News: 2019 Buick Regal Avenir Is Putting On the Ritz
Paolino replied to William Maley's topic in Buick
I looked at the order guide and there are things that just boggle my mind. Avenir is supposed to be posh, no? You can't get massaging seats in the Regal Avenir... but you can on the GS. You can't get ventilated seats in the Avenir. There is only noise-canceling on Regals with AWD. It gets some safety equipment that is standard on a Yaris. -
Buick News: 2019 Buick Regal To Be Next Model Getting the Avenir Treatment
Paolino replied to William Maley's topic in Buick
https://www.buick.com/avenir?socid=sf194625100_Buick United States_FB_Page%3A Buick_31072018 If you scroll down a little, voila, there's the Regal Avenir. I really do wish they put just a little bit more into the Avenir line. -
I actually like it... except for the front. Interior design I'm not a huge fan of, but there are elements like the wood, screens, ambient lighting, that would make me look past the design.
