If it sticks to the concept, that will be hot IMO.

Let the wars begin again :)

looks nice , some of those gauges next to the shifter seem a little to far away from ones peripheral vision..

I like the retro look. Old + new = winner :thumbup:

Unfortunately, after being pro "American" for many years, I personally will never buy another American made vehicle.

Not trying to rag on you but.....

We all know the American car companies have a lot of improving to do but stating you'll never buy another one???? Isn't that a bit harsh?? I would love for GM and the others to get their act together and produce attractive, reliable, fun to drive vehicles.... Once that happens I'll support them..... doesn't mean I'll stop buying BMWs but I think we should support our hometown people when possible. Again, please don't take this personal.... I just hate to see people swear off American auto companies altogether.

What's incredibly ironic to me is that many American cars are more reliable than higher end, more expensive European cars. And you don't need a $3k extended warranty on an American car to make sure you don't have to foot the bill for a new transmission in year 5 of the cars life ;)

Don't get me wrong, I've owned a couple of X5's myself, so I'm not slamming anyone at all because I lived in that glass house for 5 years, BUT, the irony hasn't escaped me either :)

I've owned a number of GM, Lexus, and BMW vehicles...... I had all of the Lexus in for 2-3 issues each..... The BMWs.... you know the drill there..... The GM vehicles..... Most I never took to the dealer after buying them and the others went in once or maybe twice for very minor things. We currently have an 04 Yukon with 50K miles...... The only time it has been to the dealer was for a stuck CD in the radio.

Sorry Ed, this doesn't make my heart beat faster. This car is so last century.

What are GM and Ford thinking? Global warming will probably hit the front page in 2007 and these guys are rolling out 5 and 6 litre engines in 2009? Toyota deserves number one market share.
