I'm guessing that BMW sedans are back to the sausages of different lengths, which wasn't a bad thing to start with. I really like it overall, but you can DEFINITELY see the pedestrian friendly front end, in both the profile and head on shots.

Only 18? That would probably make it one of the most exclusive cars in the entire world. Probably only custom armored vehicles for government officials and the mega-wealthy are more rare. Anyone know how many Presidential limos the Secret Service maintains?

You're right for the most part; despite massive improvements in fuel efficiency for forced induction engines, they still require a lot of premium fuel.
I guess the main difference between some vehicles you've listed might be the power curve. The turbo engines often have usable torque at lower engine speeds. Lower engine speeds generally mean less fuel; however, prod the ...

I would if I had $8000k to spare. I don't think it's a bad price for a classic. But i'd do my hw to see what the market value for these things would be. Not the KBB value, but the actual value based on the fact that its a 'classic'.
I really like those, and this one looks pretty clean!>

I'm hoping they have iPod integration, a restyled rear end, and a better looking steering wheel. Turn signals on the side mirrors would be nice, but that seems to be something reserved for Acura. I just hope they don't drop the new cherry red. I ...

I bought this Accord used with 27,000 miles on it. I have now filled my tank at least a dozen times. At first, the mileage was decent, 26MPG. But with each succeeding fill up the mileage seems to be going down, down, down. My last fill up netted me 17.2 MPG. Granted, I rarely do highway driving and most of my travel is over typical suburban streets for a short ...

Was just looking at that, too. Very well done and lost next to nothing from the concept, which was also beautiful. Good call on the design language that Acura may never be able to resolve - at least not with those front and rear overhangs - and they know it.
So, they are essentially the same design themes. One executed more competently than the other.
Under the skin may be a ...

Interesting to see everyone rushing to introduce technology that's been around for a few years. Although DI has obvious advantages in turbocharged applications I really don't any substantial benefits or gains in normally aspirated applications vs the associated costs. I think Honda didn't further pursue this technology as the results didn't outweigh the return.

Obviously, just like every company in the world, there will be signs of cost cutting.
One big thing you forgot is the rear shelf, which is all plastic instead of plush in previous years. This was a big grievance with me because since it's all plastic back there and exposed to constant sun and heat, many noises came from that area. If you start prying away at the pieces like the ...
