Today our streets are stacking up with Gas gusling SUVS and Full sized Pick ups, Luxury cars like Benz and BMer, Over powered and overweightNot to mention $$OVER PRICED$$ futuristic styling cars like the CRossfire and the SSR. And on top of all that there our some other less popular cars, just daily drivers. Whatta bout the Honda Element and Scion Xa, and Ab, the targeting age on those casr was like 17-25 or something along that lines, but ain't nobody buyin' that car at those ages. I mean the last time I saw one on the road, a driver far from that age target was behind the wheel. And the Manufacturers don't wake up like Mravin Gaye and see "whats goin' on" then ''BYE BYE BYE'' as N'sync would say.

Would u readers please post an opinion or ur seeing on the future of the Auto Industry and tell me what u want the manufacter, car model engine and specs, be real about it too.
I'll post (Part 2) to morrow.




P.S. Im fourteen and been readin about cars my whole life, the are my passion, my love, and hopefully my future, and talkin to some people with the same passion is more than a kid could ever ask for. Hasta Luego!
 
Um...right...

At 14, how do you know what is overpriced? I wouldn't call a Crossfire overpriced at all...
 
For the engine it has, it's a tad overpriced, but most people are buying those for the looks and "ohmygosh!" value (ditto the SSR). I think they're fine though.

GT PIMP, what do you mean by "future"? Like, a year from now, 5 years from now, a decade, 5 decades...?
 
Well it may not be the greatest performance car, but it is loaded down with a nice chunk of luxury for the price.

I would, though for him I think it was just a lucky guess.

The SSR is definitely overpriced, and probably the worst new car in half a decade.

I went to pay for this upcoming semester of tuition yesterday, and I followed a yellow SSR for like 2 miles. It was a lot cooler in real life than it is in photos. It still sucked balls, though.

Oh, and the worst new car in half a decade is the newest CLK55. Yeah. *****.

Back the Price Train up... I work for Chrysler. I drive the Crossfire just about EVERY day. And let me tell you from first hand experience with the car. Its crap. The interior is nice to look at but the seats are highly uncomfortable. The clutch feels like your stepping on a stick of butter. You cant see anything out of it. And then there is the engine. woop-di f---ing do. And for prices ranging from $32,000-$40,000. Ive got better things to buy like an EVO or STi.
 
And all of that does absolutely nothing to discredit the fact that the Crossfire has luxury ammenities that others of its type lack...

If you want better performance, wait for an SRT-6...

Not according to the women who buy them!

I can't wait for the list!
 
I just sat here and typed a large reply to all of ur posts and accidently erased it. If u hav any questions feel free to ask, but here is the point I was trying to get across. With all the new varieties of cars being manufactered to day, is the SSR and Crossfire what you,the buyer, is looking for at the time. Exactly what are you looking for?
 
Hey TS1AWD u said it in a nutshell. why come out with such a car if it is crap,and nothing else more. My father owns a 2003 PT Cruiser GT, what do u thin about that car, and the New Srt-4.
And Oh yea, what is an srt-6, saw it posted under my forum.
 
About what you said about the Element, I was thinking about that earlier. Most 17 year olds aren't going to have 15 grand to spend on a car, cheap or not. They are more than likely going to get a new Kia or used Civic of some sort, not an Element that they probably don't want anyway.
