    I just don't get the point. Why not get the 'square' one and have all the "U" in CUV...

    I think the point is more ride height and the false pretense of sport. Different strokes perhaps.

    2 out of 3 aint bad?
    More ride height? I think the X1 and X2 are the same, as are X3 and X4, right?
    But to each their own. I'm guilty of getting a Scirocco instead of a Rabbit...
    Did it have plaid seats? I always liked the Scirocco.
    My '78 Scirocco (I bought used in '82, my first car!) had cloth Recaro seats. Or was that Ricardo?
    And soon, rust.

    Yes, it was a ‘79 S. Still looks great to me.

    I was thinking over a normal passenger car - but I know they have a demographic in mind, and they seem to sell, so I guess it's a win.

    Trying to think of which MB I want the least, GLC coupe or GLE coupe, tough decision.

    2 Toyota crowns. Both white. Or the same one different days and locations.

    I have yet to warm up to the styling of the Crown. It looks awkward and cartoonish. Not cheap either but what is?

    Agree for the first version. The Signia looks fine to me.

  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,415
    Crown reminds me of a 21st century AMC Eagle sedan, but maybe a little less quirky and cool. I know a ton of Crowns have made it to fleets. At least it's technically a sedan.

    Very black Aston Martin DB11, V12 I believe. Oh, the sound that car made!

    It was big, driving normally - a Rivian for someone who wants to be more brash, but not as obnoxious as a Cybertruck I suppose. Not my cup of tea - if I was shopping in that segment, I think it would be Rivian all the way.
  • MichaellMichaell Moderator Posts: 262,164
    Rivians are getting to be quite common here in CO.

    And, I agree - having driven a Rivian, that’s the choice I’d make.

    Yeah, not great, but you can't see it when you're driving...
    Reviewers love it (the car, that is).
  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,415
    Lazy design. I hear hybrid is standard on those now too, so at least you'll be sipping fuel. Normies don't care, but that design element grinds my gears a little. Maybe a homage to the DLO fail of the 2015 style Camry.
  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,336

    Sat in a new ZDX Acura today. Nice looking. Really nice interior. But basically looked like a nice refresh on our RDX. And other than a flat front doesn’t look at all like an EV

    hideous. I really believe that within a year, sales will disappear, and you won't be able to unload one. But am curious what would happen if they took the platform and rebodied it to be a more normal PU and SUV, like the Rivian.

    Reminds me of an 8-bit or less home video game console system car design as you can't have too many angles displayed graphically.

    Cybertrucks to me look like something they would have mocked up in the 80s to look futuristic in a movie like Robocop. For that, I am kind of digging them

    Even I knew how to use a french curve (my dad had one) for my 'serious' doodles! Too bad they all ended up looking like a Porsche 911.

    Saw another 25 Camry this morning, apparent private car/not fleet. It was white, but the DLO fail area was silver (?). Not a great look.

  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,336
    I guess the novelty days for the Maverick are long gone. Stopped at Kohls today and saw a nice red (2022 1 year only color) Mav so parked next to it so they could chat. A few spots down was another one (Cactus gray I think) then I noticed 2 rows over, another light gray one. Could have had a Maverick truck club meeting in the Mens department.

    then as we were leaving the lot, another one was turning in. Might be the most I ever saw in basically the same spot that wasn't a dealer lot. Or even then.

    I've also been noticing more than a few Hyundia Santa Cruz'es. I didn;t think that they'd sell 3 of them

    Not brand new, but remarkable in Spokane - a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, waiting in line at a coffee stand.

    Got a ride in a Maverick today.
    Engine seemed noisy and coarse at first but seemed to smooth out obce underway.
    Plenty of room in the front passenger seat and seats were comfortable.
    Ride was car like.
    Guessing it was an XL model.

    parked at Lowe's, a Fisker Ocean. Good luck to the poor soul that owns that orphan full of unobtanium parts and computer code.

    Of course, they were on a car carrier all headed east. LOL.

    On the way back from the barbershop, a new white Hummer EV pickup. For high 5 figures and up price, I don’t expect to see many of these beasts.

    I've seen two or three new IONIQ5's in my housing development over the last few weeks.

    Of course, with the extra $5000+ in CO incentives for EV or PHEV vehicles, they're pretty common around here.
