Hot take: I would rather own a Toyota Previa over a Porsche 918 Spyder.

    Mid-engine, RWD, supercharged...

     

     

    It's literally a supercar.

    ...just without the top speed... and the acceleration... and the handling.

    Eh, close enough.

    You know you're good when you can drift a minivan to preschool.

    Something is wrong with me. I'm the only person who could love a Previa, a Crown Victoria, a 911 Turbo and the Viper all in one roll.

    If I was going utility I'd go for a wagon. If I really needed all that space, I'd go with a proper cargo van, and a car to drive when I didn't need to do work things.

    We haven't gotten good wagons in the States ever since the B-body died in 1996.

    That's not true.

    • CTS-V
    • Mercedes Benz E63s
    • Audi A4 allroad
    • The Audi ETron looks interesting
    • Volvo V60 Polestar

    Just to name a few. Though, the heavy hitters like the RS6 Avant haven't made it over.

    CTS-V is modern GM drivel

    E63 depreciates like a house in Detroit

    idk what you smoke to call an Audi A4 a good car

    e-tron is an SUV

    /shrug about the volvo

    Since when is depreciation ever a consideration when buying a high performance vehicle?

    The Polestar is a beast. Almost 500HP, plus Volvo safety.

    V90 > V60

     

     

    Both are still awesome tho

  12. dizmo

    dizmo

    @kelvinhall05 I'd definitely take the V60...an extra 100ish HP? Yes please ?

  13. kelvinhall05

    kelvinhall05

    Eh, V90 looks better.

     

     

    Though I'd personally rather have a new 850R

    I'd take a 1996 Roadmaster wagon over any of those.

    @kelvinhall05 The 850R is nice. Old AF though. I played around with the idea of a V70R, total sleeper, but kind of want something newer.

    @Dan Castellaneta Haha, speaking of American made drivel...

    It's GM trash from the 1990s, but at least it has character to it outside of a big ass engine.

    @dizmo It's old, but it's really amazing imo lol. The interior is a bit dated-looking but still quite functional and comfortable. My parents' (hopefully mine in 2ish years) '98 S70 T5 pushes you into your seat hard, especially for a fucking 90s Volvo. They're amazing sleepers lol.

    @Dan Castellaneta Wood paneling? Really? ?

    @kelvinhall05 Yeah Volvo's always been known for having amazing seats. Right now I'm really contemplating a 2012 S60 R Design Polestar...but it's not the color I want.

    Hell yeah. Tacky is my middle name. It's also why I appreciate the PT Cruiser and the first-generation Odyssey.

    @dizmo Please tell me you want Polestar Blue...that's the only colour a Polestar should come in :P

    Next thing you'll say is "I love the HHR". 

  22. PlayStation 2

    PlayStation 2

    I only like the HHR SS and the HHR Panel Van. As a general rule for me, I prefer the PT Cruiser over the HHR.

  23. dizmo

    dizmo

    @Dan Castellaneta I don't think it's as much tacky as....ugly...especially in regards to the PT Cruiser.

    @ARikozuM Haha I actually don't mind the HHR...but only in SS trim. And as long as I don't look at the quality of the interior components.

    @kelvinhall05 Hah, I wish. The S60 is pretty rare in Canada, even more so for the R Design variants. I really want a dark grey one. The one available is unfortunately red.

    I saw a red one at a dealership a few days ago. It's sexy lol.

  25. dizmo

    Apparently the XC60 also comes in an R Design variant...?
