Having the Aventador made me realize (except for Hyura, Agera and maybe a Ferrari like the FF or the new F70) there really isn't a lot of new interesting stuff coming out.

I love how the Japanese are on a roll with reviving classics like GT-R, LFA, 86 and the new NSX. Except for them I rather have an old classic from Jay Leno´s garage than the new M5 or R8 GT. Don´t even know what to think of this new Porsche with all that hybrid technology.

What are you looking forward to the most? not talking about race cars just street cars
 
I think the BMW i8 is quite exciting

I also think the new SAAB 9-5 sedan finally found a classy form. Sadly, it's a bit too late :nervous:

Speaking of 2010 models, the Jaguar XF is probably the best looking car all categories scince the 1960's.

I know what ya mean, I´m from Holland and it was on the news here all the time.
Looks like they didn´t make it. Well atleast we still got Koenigsegg and Spyker.
:)

You´re right BMW really needs a supercar. I like that 328 from the back but the front is damn ugly.
Anyone know the specs of the i8 car?

Next Gen Viper Hopefully to come out soon. It will have No Dodge badge At all but instead an SRT badge only.
 
the only other "over 100 mpg" car that i know of is the new mitz. but its sadly like a smart car. bmw wins

oh and the rx7 is most likely coming back. i asked about it when my sister picked up her used mazda. im curious. also they have a four door supercar-ish looking thing i saw on there desktop backround

Pretty impressive, actually

0-60 in less than 6 seconds, top speed limited to 155 like all BMWs, and I seem to recall MPG claims of over 100mpg.

It is a very neat study for their Efficient Dynamics. And it is pretty :drool:

I wouldn't really bank on a dealership being the most reliable source for what models are coming up.
 
Don't hate on me for this (which I'm sure everyone still will), but I think all of the cars of today really are getting half-assed designs..I can't imagine what it would be in 30 years..

A couple synonyms of this word would be "practical" and "economical"

Yes. I hate news cars, most of them are gutless, ugly, plastic junk.

I myself am NOT looking forward to the future of the Automobile. There's a few cars & concepts that interest me, but not many.

I don't think that words means what you think it means.



You seem to be doing this a lot as a response to posts that disagree with you - a smilie of some sort. And that is it. Doesn't really help your case at all.

I guess you didn't see the part "Don't hate on me." But oh well whatever

That doesn't excuse you from saying things that are just wrong. As someone pointed out, the "half-assed" designs tend to be considerably safer, weigh less, and vastly superior in terms of ergonomics. But that is all "illogical" according to you.

Honestly, think before you post, you aren't excused from the words you string together because you're a child :rolleyes:
 
I am liking the future of cars actually, fuel efficiency is improving rapidly, which means we can fuel our cars possibly for a couple decades more...mainstream urban go around cars will be electric and more space efficient, which hopefully can solve congestion issues. which mean more open roads!

not bothered by current design trends, since all the cars I want to drive has been produced already :)

That is wrong on so many levels.

Please, tell me at what point I am wrong? I've used your own statements on the future of the industry, and 13 qualifies you as a child.

But I mean, go ahead, actually build a rebuttal or case, rather than just going "that is wrong" or "illogical." Learn to support your statements.

Did you see my posts? I think he was referring to them. I said synonyms for half-assed were "practical" and "economical" (as a joke). Then he added in "illogical", to which I replied "That is an antonym" because, well, illogical is an antonym to those two words.

I mostly ignored your attempt at pointing out an antonym because, well, illogical isn't one to either of those.

Modern design is moving towards practical and economical, so you're joke wasn't particularly funny. I know, I know, you think you're being clever or something, but you have to actually be clever for it to work.

And that doesn't change the fact he isn't exactly handling himself well.

Just the normal Azuremen, always having an opinion about one thing or another. I guess that's why you won the award...
