If there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s that people who don’t like electric cars talk about them more than the people who do. You learn to ignore it.
Its a "because race car" thing. In sportier driving positions or cars with tight driver zones it makes getting in and out of the car a bit easier. One could argue there's a tangential steering feel benefit in relation to wheel position as well, similar to a top stripe.
That's...not how design works. By that metric the bare steering wheel is close in design to literally every flat bottom steering wheel in existence, which isn't new at all, tons of manufacturers are using it.
It's fine if you don't like the wheel, styling is subjective, but it has the exact...
My only desperate prayer is that the HI-PO Grille isn't actually the godawful piece of black plastic and that it's just distortion from being a digital image. The rest of the bumper is aggressive and great
I meant complimentary as in: alongside. It's a good pairing. For a Mustang household like mine ( we have a mustang and a fusion.) It's the perfect replacement. There is no new fusion, I'm not getting rid of my GT, a Mach-E fits well in that space.
Ill say what I’ve always said, based off of widespread experience in business. Anecdotal evidence isn’t really objective evidence at all and can’t really counter the hard sales numbers. While I believe what you’ve heard, people who don’t like something are statistically far more likely to say...
For sure, I've hard plenty of people not liking it as well, however anecdotal statements simply can't override sales success. I'd bet my dollar anyone who saying "I like it as a car but I won't buy it because of the name" is someone who wouldn't have bought it regardless of what it's called.
I...
Disaster is a strong word for a vehicle that hit its sales goals with ease and got rave reviews both as a car and in comparison to its competitors. I know we enthusiasts had to let our ego's heal, but the other 98% of people in the world were un-phased by the name. If anything I'd be willing to...
100% agree with this. The S550PP I bought was decent handling out of the box. But after about $1000 in various steeda parts it started handling like a much more expensive car. Even my not so mechanically inclined girlfriend noticed the difference.
Those big ass tires, quad tipped exhaust, and what appears to be a camouflaged chin spoiler would typically be indicative of a performance trim of some sort....
Honestly cars in general are way too complicated, I ride a horse everywhere. I don't need some idiot in marketing to try to sell me a lifeless machine that doesn't even respond well to voice commands like my trusty steed. Plus my horse carries my butter churn way better than any car could.
I sometimes wonder how much progress could be made if every single innovation or change wasn't met with inevitable "That's not the way we've always done it, so I hate it" mentality that seems ever so common....
Everything you just listed is already possible.... many people have updated analog clusters with digital ones and better/updated audio systems.
You want one Recaro seat? Order a base model with cloth basic seats and buy a single Recaro. You can do that too.
You're asking for Porsche/Ferrari...
This wheel has the exact same amount of buttons as the current wheel.....
They've just been shifted into one section per side instead of two.
I've spent a good amount of time on the track, and outside of folks with a LOT of money and a handful of extremely hardcore enthusiasts, I haven't seen...
Yeah I definitely see that. I just mean the heavy masking over the rear 1/3 of the roofline on the fastback prototypes, which is where a seam would be for a panoramic sunroof like what's on the E class coupe.
It just seems like an odd place to put so much camo, unless they're hiding a liftback.
Or the lever isn't attached to anything and is a fly-by-wire version of a handbrake. Considering they were already working on something similar for a clutch it wouldn't be that far fetched.
