MT Reviews Corvette 427 Roadster(Sep 30, 2012)When rebuking or debating another's post please use proper grammar. "You're" is a good place to start, and when "your" is used it's tough to be taken seriously.
Playgirls and their Supercars Light up Monaco(Sep 17, 2012)The car may be difficult to drive but at what speeds. Monaco is quite crowded and if you're just driving it around tow then the learning curve isn't anything to squawk about.
5 Ultra-Rare Ferraris(Sep 04, 2012)I'm with the first two posters. Too Corvette-like.
BMW Designs Hot New Gaming Mouse(Sep 01, 2012)Ok, nice looking but how many buttons? Removable weights or adjustable rests? With Razer and Mad Catz offering better mice at 20-40 dollars cheaper, this is meh...
Infiniti to Debut New G in Geneva(Aug 29, 2012)This is also where they need to make improvements. I had decided to buy a used 2009 335i e92 over the G37, and after a few months sat in the G37... Man, the interior is very plasticky. Very cheap. Nice seats, but that's about it.
91-Year-Old Granny Goes RallyX in a Subaru(Aug 16, 2012)For all of you lazy fools playing video games instead of enjoying the finer things, don't look now, but this EPIC woman just pwned you.
Ferrari's V8 Battles Ford's V8 and Audi's V10 on the Strip(Aug 16, 2012)Why are they advertising this as R8 vs Ferrari vs Ford when the R8 was a Stage 2 tune? Due to this, I have to give bigger props to the GT! Not only was it not tuned but it was composed throughout the race. Not bad for a 35K car!
Kia Reveals All-New 2013 Forte(Jul 30, 2012)Looks so damn nose-heavy. To the engineers out there, is it possible to have an engine above or behind the axle on a FWD setup?
Cadillac ATS Takes on the World in New Ad Campaign(Jul 21, 2012)I agree.
This car is a very noble effort in going against the 3 but the challenge will be perception. Can they, or will they, be able to sell this car as a true, 100% sport sedan without someone raising an eyebrow saying "it's an old-erosion car?"
5 Facebook-Built Cars(Jul 13, 2012)No way that's the Mayhem... No way... Well, the PR circus won't be in town over this design. Way to be safe, apologetic, middle-of-the-road, and utterly uninspiring.
2013 Lexus LS to Debut on July 30(Jul 09, 2012)Better but not quite there. I find it funny that they have the chrome accent in the Hofmeister kink, as to not too similar to the 5er.
2015 Mustang’s Platform Could be Basis for New Lincoln Sedan(Jun 27, 2012)Preach on J. Jackson! The T-Bird would be a welcome sign.... If they do it right. I'm thinking they should make it a roadster with underpinnings that resemble a MX-5. Keep the Mustang as the 4-seater.
2015 Mustang Rumor of the Week: A 330hp Four-Pot in Place of a V6?(Jun 17, 2012)It's time for car makers to walk away from the retro/muscle-car look. The market of those looking to relive their childhood (baby-boomers) is starting to die off. They have to move on. This is a step in the right direction.
2013 Shelby GT500 and Camaro ZL1 Duel on the Track(Jun 13, 2012)Damn, I'm a Ford guy, but there is no excuse as to why the GT500 can't match up in handling... Yet another American car that is only good in the straights...
ZL1 FTW
Pony Car Icons, Part 3: Chevrolet Camaro(May 31, 2012)... dying away, along with those who grew up with these older cars. Dodge is discontinuing the Challenger and Ford is going with a fresh new modern look in 2014. I bet GM will be close behind.
These cars are nice to look at but that's it.
Pony Car Icons, Part 3: Chevrolet Camaro(May 31, 2012)I wouldn't take any older Cameros or Mustangs. By today's standards, they are all crap. Horrible reliability, acceleration, top-speed, comfort, amenities, etc. The aging market, that the newer "retro" Mustangs, Camaros, and Challengers, is (cont)
Would You Ever Be Caught Driving One of These Senior Citizen Cars?(May 27, 2012)Ok, this is more reliable that the 80s or 90s offerings from GM, but more importantly here's the key point. Never take a lauded name/badge such as the "Impala" and make it a... Wait for it... FWD sedan!!!
P1 International Supercar Sunday All in the Name of Charity(May 27, 2012)Mmm... :) I agree also! What's amazing about this shade of blue, it also looks great in person. If not better! BMW's liquid-blue metallic is a another good example.
Here’s Your Weekly Industry News Roundup: May 20th - May 26th(May 26, 2012)The amazing thing about power is that having it is one thing, but being able to use it well is quite another.
How in the heck are these cars supposed to put that power down and still be able to be controllable?
Watch Motor Trend's Car Chase: 2013 Shelby GT500 vs. the Police(May 23, 2012)Only an American car company can bring back those wonderful and classy memories of "Smokey and the Bandit." Makes me yearn for a old rusty Trans-Am with a gold eagle on the hood...
2012 Dodge Challenger SRT-8 One-Off in Matte Black(May 10, 2012)You know those old beaters, usually GM, Ford, or Chrysler, that you see that have been spray-painted to cover rust spots? This reminds me of those cars. Whiskey-Tango.
Unique of the Week: 1986 Pontiac Grand Prix 2+2 Y97 Package(Apr 22, 2012)It's funny how everything is relative. Compared to what we have to choose from today, this is one awkward POS. it's almost like clumsy sex. Then again, back then this was nice! Lol
BMW’s Idea of an April Fool’s Joke? BMW i8 Spyder Concept(Apr 01, 2012)First, no. A BMW pickup?! No. Just no. Ever seen a Lincoln Mark LT pickup? It's quite stupid and not necessary.
Second, a spyder version is not that crazy. I don't see how this could be a joke. Speaking of which, BMW already set a joke.
The 2013 Cadillac ATS: The New Standard of the World?(Jan 13, 2012)Here's the facts. This is Cadillac's first try at the 'compact' sedan segment. First. Granted, they have some great competition to learn from but this entry is a GREAT one! I have a feeling the overall sales figures are going to put this in 3rd.
2013 Lincoln MKZ Concept Teased Ahead of Detroit(Jan 09, 2012)Whatever. Ford has already disappointed by announcing a lack of a manual for the range-topper Fusion. Lincoln will impress but will ultimately find itself being very similar to the basic Fords.
Wiesmann: Quite Possibly the World’s Ideal Sports Car Builder(Jan 06, 2012)Well, funny thing about that Blue Oval, that while I agree about Americans believing they're trash, Ford is VERY established in Europe. Hell, it's their largest and I think, most profitable, car maker.
Flawless 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge Looking for New Home(Dec 26, 2011)Eh... I'm torn about how to think about these cars. On one hand, they have a certain charm, but on the other they look bulky, sound rough, and drive poorly. I'm more impressed with the hard work they put into the car, than the car itself.
Report: GM Already Working on Six-Generation Camaro(Dec 23, 2011)Turbo-4s are the thing now. BMW took their bread-and-butter 328i and put a one in it. The result? ~15 more HP and ~60 more ft-lbs of torque, all the while increasing its MPG.
Awesome.
2013 Cadillac ATS Receiving a Turbo 2.0-liter Engine from GM(Dec 15, 2011)Ugh, this is RWD right? Then why not extend that wheelbase, put the front axle more forward and under the engine, and get better balance. I'm sure there's more to it, but I think that would be a good start.
GM Plan to Unveil Buick Crossover and Chevy Sonic RS in Detroit(Dec 07, 2011)Buick's plan to prevent "those that have lived too long" from buying their cars has just been revealed!
Can you imagine an osteoporosis patient lifting those doors. In Russia, you don't break Buicks. Buicks break you.
