Automotive enthusiasts?

This video really makes me want to own a Chrysler PT Cruiser just for fun.

the UAW strikes are’t going to make anything more affordable for the consumer, the UAW just wants more employee benefits. I recon the prices will increase even more. I am happy with my current car since everything right now is insanely expensive even though I am trying to find an affordable plug-in hybrid car

@RainbowDash69
It remains to be seen how much of an effect the strikes will have on the industry, but yes, it’s probably not going to make vehicles cheaper. Yet this situation where the average person can’t afford a new vehicle is not sustainable. Sooner or later something has to give.

The UAW is asking for a raise proportional to the increase in CEO pay. Seems fair to me.

@RainbowDash69
Chrysler is pretty much a dead brand by now unfortunately.
Didn’t they move the Grand Caravan badge from Dodge to Chrysler a couple years ago?

@ЅℰℒᎯℙℋℐℰℒ
I think they’ve completely discontinued the Grand Caravan brand. The only minivan they’re selling is the Pacifica.

@kleptomage
That’s how British Leyland and coal industry in northern England died.

What’s with car brands (mostly luxury) banning/vetoing you from buying their products again after if you did something unpleasant or controversial to their cars?

@Шавкат Рахмонов
brand image, your action making the the owners of the brand in question look bad

Someone at Walmart said to me and my car (a 2012 Scion xB) “nice toaster!” Meant it as a compliment.

I love how much of a gigachad the Honda NSX used to be. It thoroughly gave inspiration to the legendary Mclaren F1 because Gordon Murray absolutely loved what Honda has made.

I am today years old when I learned Lexus is a luxury subsidary of Toyota rather than an EU or American brand.

If I were to have a dream supercar, it’s the LFA. The Whitney Houston of all automobile sounds.

They finally did it. Turned the Camaro into an SUV. Shocking to see a two door SUV though

@RainbowDash69
At least it’s not another 4-door SUV.

Still an abomination turning a sports car into an SUV. (Cough)MustangMach-EandEclipseCross!(cough)

@RainbowDash69
Is that a real prototype or just a render?

I wouldn’t be too surprised if the Camaro did become an SUV at some point. Performance SUVs are hot and GM doesn’t have any I’m aware of except the Escalade V, despite SUVs and trucks being GM’s bread and butter.

I doubt Camaro fans would be on board with an electric crossover, though.

There’s rumor of a new Alfa Romeo Giulietta coming up.

I saw someone share this car on facebook recently. 2003 Infiniti M45. This generation is very underrepresented. I’ve never seen it before, but I see tons of other Infiniti M’s. It has a V8 and some epic looking chrome wheels. It was only sold between 2002-2004, pretty small sliver in the sporty sedan world.

 
@kleptomage
Oops, just a render

@RainbowDash69
Reminds me of when Volvo made the S80 with a V8. It’s cool when companies decide to go a little crazy.

Have you heard about the Ramcharger?

Ram is going to make a series hybrid truck, meaning it will be electric powered with a gas engine (the Pentastar V6) only to charge the battery. The figures Ram quotes are impressive: 663 horsepower, 615 pound-feet of torque, 0-60 in 4.4 seconds, 14,000 pounds towing capacity, 145 miles of pure electric range, and 690 miles with a full tank of gas. Plug it in often and you can run on pure electricity for a normal commute and if you have to drive farther it’s no problem. If Ram pulls this off it will be big.

Nothing scares me more than a 2nd Gen Mitsubishi Pajero Sport (called Montero Sport here in the Philippines) having an SUA issues. It’s usually with the electronic gas pedal sensor glitching or people who suck at automatic transmission.

Whenever I see one up front or behind, i’d frantically walk or run away as far within it’s driving range.

i have a love of cars but specifically volkswagen, i own two bugs, a 1975 Miami blue Deluxe with a subaru ej22 engine and a stock 1972 Saturn Yellow super beetle.

Lotus Seven.
Caterham later bought its IP and it became Caterham Seven.

Vauxhall/Holden VXR8, a British saloon with an LS9 engine.

i belive Holden is GM’s Australian brand

@kleptomage
That thing must weigh a lot. Battery plus truck frame and engine!
@Count Oxymagomedov Sear
I can’t imagine how people can suck at automatic transmission lol but yeah that looks scary
@RD4590
Long live the V8 sedans!

automatic is easy, its manual thats hardest and i learned on the worst transmission lol

People who drives manual their entire lives.
