Chevy Suburban Dead, KTM X-Bow Race, Audi Sketches, New Ferrari F430 - 10/28/2008

fsjgw...I think Hyundai will fair pretty well in the luxury sedan market. After all, try getting a 10 year warrantee with Mercedes, Porsche, BMW and VW. You left out Audi, but still, they don't offer better protection either. And when you have a problem with the Hyundai, you're not going to get killed on the repair bill after the other makes warrantee expire. With the Genesis, you get a lot of car for the money. Hyundai have come a long way in the short time their cars made it to our shores.

Talking about Ferrari's...In Adelaide,South Australia.Australia the other day...The car, valued at around $250,000, crashed a few minutes after residents saw it "zinging" past their homes at high speed. Both men walked from the wreckage, leaving the expensive five-year-old 360 Modena model literally wrapped around the pole on Lansdowne Ave. For pictures and the story...Visit... http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,24566056-5005941,00.html Ciao!

Didn't the Germans just start coming out with SUV's? Yeah the had perfect timing too. MB GL450, Porsche Cayenne, VW Touareg, BMW X5, they get great mpg (identical or worse than the "big" Detroit suv's). Don't forget the new for 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser/Lexus LX570. This market is hard on every car maker, 0% financing at Toyota, 0.9% financing at BMW, and who is going to buy a $32-38K Hyundai Genesis? It might be a great car, but really $38k? I don't know who will survive. So glad the president and congress passed the bailout plan that has absolutely NO OVERSIGHT. Yep really helps out you and me, no new car for me ANY time soon.

Just like we are reading about SUV's getting taken out, we will be reading about the A7 and the mercedez cls being a useless slot in the car lineup. Isnt the S8 and S6 do what the CLS wants to do? Sport Sedan..... useless

Glad to see the landyachts die, but I wish they could retool the factories to make cars that don't actually suck. I bet if they tried, they could make good cars again. Recruit some Japanese or German engineers if need be. The Germans helped us get to the moon, why not?

Wow.. now the big SUV is gone for gangsters.. Are the going to drive a hybrid with 22" with the top lit back. I wounder how they would ride dirty with hybrids. COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COW COWCOW

GM laying off more workers . . . that just means move to the side GM you Big 3 american company. hello unemployed workers meet toyota! your friendly neighboorhood employer, so you can make foreign cars american , and then you can buy american named cars that are imported in . . . GO GM woooo hooooo !!!

* Gotta side with swinglow, the industry shuda seen the typhoon comin not years ago, but decades! Thats why the japanese are fairing out the storm better, cuz they did their homework. Americans just could never do small cars right. The Cadi Cimaron was a disaster & by todays standards, its not even a small car. Big cars was always the NA forte. Having said that, GM has made substantial improvements in fuel economy. 25% on some SUVs. Who says Angels dont drive? How u think you get home alive? Dont shoot the messenger. Doesnt anyone realize the jokes & script are made by the editor/producer? DD is jst the delivery. He pulls it off so well likes its his own, but good or bad, its outa his control.

So goodbye Chevrolet Yukon, Cadillac Escalade, and Gmc Denalli? Wow You would think GM could have predicted this a bit. They must have great marketers over there. isn't the full size Suv half of there market anyways?

Didn't any of the big 3 think that with the price of fuel fluxuating, would hurt sales of the big SUV's? Dumbasses...all of them...dumbasses! They should have thought greener a couple years ago. Just like the 70's, the Asian markets have the head start. That Jamaican joke is an oldie, and can be rather funny if properly delivered. And in this case, it wasn't funny. When's the next test drive with Matt?

Well the news about the closing of the Janesville GM plant is shocking. That's the town where I grew up and I have a lot of family there. The GM plant is the life-blood of that community. If it gets shut down completely that will be disastrous for that local economy. I hope the best for those workers and their families this winter. On a different note, Derek, the Jamaican joke sucked. When is Alex going to be on again?

It looks like there is some hope for the American car market. We finally realized huge SUVs are a bad idea... it seems so obvious now! Now all we need is for the big 3 quarters (is there another term we should be using instead of Big 3 now that VW is in the mix?) to bring over all the cars they sell in Europe. Then I might actually consider buying domestic again. Except for the Cobalt that shit was gold from day one.

Wtf eh? Up here from Canada eh? and der Video-a-ma-jig didn't make it a split second past where derek said 420. I didn't Realize you guys were so "dooobious" ... Oh well I think I'll drive my Magnum back to my Kushy job and enjoy some Diesel.
