    Cadillac News: Cadillac Works On Dealer Incentives

    This is a good move in the right direction. But everything will take time to develop. Hopefully, things will fully materialize by the end of 2016.

    Twice the mediocrity at twice the price - an equation for failure.

    Kia News: Rumorpile: Kia Plans A New Sports Car

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Kia
    In this day and age, they need to make a global case for manufacturing anything like this. Especially if it will not (at this time) be built on any other current platform.

    Porsche News: Rumorpile: The Turbocharging of the Porsche Boxster/Cayman

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Volkswagen
    240 hp in this car will still make a 0-60 time in 5.5 seconds. This may not be 911 performance. But it is an entry level car for people to aspire purchasing a better Porsche later.

    Dodge News: Dodge Doubles Production of 2016 Charger and Challenger Hellcats

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Dodge
    I guess this means that they will "double-down" on their sales numbers.

    Of course, the fuel economy standards will also dictate the direction of this development.

    Does GM focus on Front Wheel Drive CUVs or Rear Wheel Drive SUVs; That is the question.

    That still looks like a truck.

    Chevrolet News:Debut: 2016 Chevrolet Silverado

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Chevrolet
    It's a cost-cutting move. The chrome costs more than the plastic and paint on the new nose. Ford has its distinct chrome grille and Dodge has its distinct chrome grille which makes their trucks be trucks. This new front end makes the Silverado no different than a Malibu.

    Chevrolet News:Debut: 2016 Chevrolet Silverado

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Chevrolet
    But I like the "old" chrome grille. It reminds me of the late '70s/early '80s trucks. This is too subdued.

    Lexus News: Rumorpile: Production Lexus LF-LC To Be Named SC, Come As 2017 Model Year Vehicle

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Toyota
    I guess my underlying point when it comes to anything Toyota is - WHERE IS THE SUPRA!!??!! The rumor mill for the statement below has been going on for three years; Alfa is FINALLY coming back to the U.S. = Toyota is FINALLY bringing back the Supra. Now that the first half is FINALLY true, how much longer do we have to wait for the second half to be a reality?

    Why can't the 5.0 V8 version be the Supra and have Lexus get the hybrid and 600 hp engine?

    Dodge News: Dodge Increases Hellcat Engine Production Due To Increased Demand

    These cars are built in Canada. For that, I am grateful.

    Dodge News: Dodge Increases Hellcat Engine Production Due To Increased Demand

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Dodge
    So by 2017, these cars will actually be available at a "reasonable" price and not be gouged by dealer mark ups and auction frenzy?

    Well, Lexus is supposed to be the Japanese version of Buick.

    This engine may also be an indication for what might be powering the potential return of the Dino.

    Chevrolet News:Revealed: 2016 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible

    That has a more aggressive look than the outgoing 5th gen car. I like this a lot.

    I think that looks better than the coupe.

    Fiat News: Marchionne Tries Another Way To Get GM, Looks To Alternatives

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Fiat
    GM got rid of Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saturn, Hummer, and Saab in the six years before filing bankruptcy. Now FCA wants to merge with GM. If ANY deal goes through, then how will the brands be positioned? Chrysler = Oldsmobile? Dodge = Pontiac? Jeep = Hummer? Fiat = Saturn? Alfa Romeo = Saab?

    Lamborghini Finally Gets the Green Light for Urus Production, Begins In 2018

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Lamborghini
    1. Lambo has already done the SUV 2. This will be built on the same platform as the VW Tourreg/AudiQ7/Bentley Arrow/Porsche Cayanne (which will dilute the Lambo's exclusivity) 3. I hope to GOD that Ferrari does not follow suit with a competitor.

    Imagine how many more they can sell with a single cab/short be model with a 3.6l V6 and a six-speed manual.

    Nissan News: Dead and Gone: Nissan IDx

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Nissan
    Wasn't it Nissan's tag line 15 years ago, "Enjoy the ride"? There is very little to enjoy in the auto industry these days. These cars would have made an interesting business case to say the least.

    Nissan News: Dead and Gone: Nissan IDx

    aurora97 replied to William Maley's post in a topic in Nissan
    You need to give credit to Nissan for at least trying it out. I am still waiting for a new Supra from Toyota. If I was told to drive one either this or the Mini Cooper, then I would rather have driven one of these things instead of a Mini Cooper.
