  1. What have we done? 2016 Malibu 1LT 1.5t

    frogger replied to regfootball's topic in Member's Rides Showcase
    Also, these days auto transmissions tuned for fuel economy in these mainstream cars, quick to upshift, slow to downshift... Yummy.

    You gotta pay if you want some performance in your family hauler.. $30K+ for cars that don't need incentives to sell. Honda doesn't offer an LX trim 2.0T, Nissan doesn't offer a cheap 3.5S Altima, no Camry 3.5 LE etc... These days the third powertrain option for mainstream sedans is a hybrid.

    I like that VW gives a 1.8 as standard on the Golf variations here vs the 1.4 on the cheaper Jettas, I wonder if they do that in many markets.

  4. Detroit Preview: Honda Insight Protoype: Comments

    frogger replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)
    Finally the Prius is a decent driving car but then they had to go style it while on crack.

  5. Detroit Preview: 2019 Acura RDX Prototype: Comments

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)
    Wonder if the RDX will get SH-AWD this time around to go with an engine similar to that of the Civic Type-R.

  6. Detroit Preview: Honda Insight Protoype: Comments

    frogger replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)
    The current Civic Type R has a drag coefficient of 0.26, so this car should have some pretty good aero despite the normalized look.

  7. Detroit Preview: Honda Insight Protoype: Comments

    frogger replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)
    Basically a high end Civic Hybrid. Looks like they they polished some of the polarizing elements of the Civic. What a next gen "Acura ILX" might have been...

  8. Detroit Preview: 2019 Toyota Avalon: Comments

    frogger replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)
    It looks like they might be trying to compete more with the Maxima. How about an AWD PHEV Toyota Avalon?

  9. Random Thoughts Thread

    frogger replied to TaurusSHO's topic in The Lounge
    No garages in my area big enough to fit anything larger than a midsize car, unless the house was rebuilt. I suspect the small garages/large sheds house more raccoons than cars overall at this point.

  10. Detroit Preview: Volkswagen Continues to Tease the 2019 Jetta: Comments

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)
    Exterior looks like a flattering render of what was leaked in the summer.. https://www.thetorquereport.com/volkswagen/new-volkswagen-jetta-leaked/

  11. Kia News: 2018 Kia Stinger to Begin At $32,800, GT At $39,200

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in Kia
    I wonder if AWD changes the numbers much. In Canada I think AWD is standard, 80% of power to the rear. I really love the SS, but it never sold here so this Kia is pretty awesome to me.

  12. Subaru's First EV To Arrive In 2020

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in Subaru
    Bodes well for Subaru and AWD preferring EV fans.

  13. Toyota News: Toyota Plans A New Subcompact Crossover

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in Toyota
    The C-HR is small and unconventional enough (and the RAV4 big enough) that there is room for something in between them.. The concepts were not all that mainstream but the FT-4X is probably closest to the end result.

  14. December Car Spotter Thread

    frogger replied to G. David Felt's topic in The Lounge
    First sighting of a Kia Stinger on the road for me yesterday. Looks sharp in black.

  15. Volvo News: Volvo Provides More Details On Their "Care by Volvo"

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in Volvo
    Seems like a good deal especially if you live somewhere car insurance is relatively expensive.

  16. 2018 Nissan Kicks Loses the Quirkiness of the Juke: Comments

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in LA Auto Show
    Few if any cars this small are good looking IMO.. This keeps up that trend. The dash looks nice for its class.

  17. 2019 Kia Sorento Comes With A New Face, Drops Turbo-Four: Comments

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in LA Auto Show
    Kia styling is right up there. I was watching some Stinger GT videos last night and for the price it seems like a winner.

  18. November Car Spotters Thread

    frogger replied to balthazar's topic in The Lounge
    Saw a bunch of these Great Wall Wingles during a day in Belize last week

  19. Would You Rather a 2017 Chevy Volt or a 1997 Acura Integra

    frogger replied to oldshurst442's topic in The Lounge
    I loved my colleague's GSR back then, it was a tonne of fun driving it on some lunch breaks. I'm still going to go modern and pick a Volt for myself at this point though.

  20. Mazda Re-Engineers the Mazda 6 mostly beneath the skin: Comments

    frogger replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in LA Auto Show
    It is nice and all but surely a bigger refresh is coming, 2018 is the 5th model year of this version.

  21. 2019 Subaru Ascent is the Forester XL: Comments

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in LA Auto Show
    Basically a Subaru Honda Pilot. I'm guessing the new Forester will just be a slightly downsized version of this but with a sad combination of NA 4 banger mated to a CVT like most of their vehicles.

  22. Subaru Teases 2019 Ascent: Comments

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in Subaru
    Hopefully not let down by a lame engine/CVT combo.

  23. Tesla Unveils Tesla Semi Truck and Roadster 2.0

    frogger replied to G. David Felt's topic in Tesla
    Ridiculous in a good way, hope they can pull it off.

  24. Industry News: Europeans Fall Under the Spell of Trucks

    frogger replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
    It would sell well here if priced cheap cheap cheap.
