- Wolfwagen Is it me or have auto shows just turned to meh? To me, there isn't much excitement anymore. it's like we have hit a second malaise era. Every new vehicle is some cookie-cutter CUV. No cutting-edge designs. No talk of any great powertrains, or technological achievements. It's sort of expected with the push to EVs but there is no news on that front either. No new battery tech, no new charging tech. Nothing.
- CanadaCraig You can just imagine how quickly the tires are going to wear out on a 5,800 lbs AWD 2024 Dodge Charger.
- Luke42 I tried FSD for a month in December 2022 on my Model Y and wasn’t impressed.The building-blocks were amazing but sum of the all of those amazing parts was about as useful as Honda Sensing in terms of reducing the driver’s workload.I have a list of fixes I need to see in Autopilot before I blow another $200 renting FSD. But I will try it for free for a month.I would love it if FSD v12 lived up to the hype and my mind were changed. But I have no reason to believe I might be wrong at this point, based on the reviews I’ve read so far. [shrug]. I’m sure I’ll have more to say about it once I get to test it.
- FormerFF We bought three new and one used car last year, so we won't be visiting any showrooms this year unless a meteor hits one of them. Sorry to hear that Mini has terminated the manual transmission, a Mini could be a fun car to drive with a stick.It appears that 2025 is going to see a significant decrease in the number of models that can be had with a stick. The used car we bought is a Mk 7 GTI with a six speed manual, and my younger daughter and I are enjoying it quite a lot. We'll be hanging on to it for many years.
- Oberkanone Where is the value here? Magna is assembling the vehicles. The IP is not novel. Just buy the IP at bankruptcy stage for next to nothing.

Yeah, gotta disagree with the sedan lovers here. It looks no better than someone ricing his Civic to the extreme. Big fugly wing in the back, unnecessary quad tailpipes, and ground effects only it's creator could love. To be honest, the hatchback doesn't look much better, but the shape is much less jarring. I thought that a WRX hatch would be a decent upgrade from my current car, should it get totaled or stolen, but it looks like, if I did upgrade, I can't look at anything newer then the 2010 model, as the steroidal fenders have now found their way onto the lesser WRX from the STi and have ruined what was once an aggressive yet clean design.
Yeah, it's a bit on the ugly side but it's a Subaru. I mean c'mon you guys knew it was gonna be ugly, that's just a given. Oh but gods I want that 5-door so bad.
