Replying to: jlbl (Apr 10, 2008 1:43 pm)  When in Florida I hope you got to visit St. Augustine. Founded by your Countrymen in 1565, it is the oldest city in the U.S. So I guess we go back a ways!!

Replying to: houdini1 (Apr 09, 2008 6:43 pm) Also love visiting the USA. I go there quite frequently. I do have some kind of connection with the USA. I lived one year in Chicago and my father was a 1958 MBA graduate from the University of Texas in Austin. So consider me a good neighbor.

If the new generation Toyota Prius models have nickel carbide batteries and the new Lexus Prius modes have lithium ion batteries than that distinction alone will make me favor a far more fuel efficient Lexus. Who knows I may actually own a Lexus in the future.   This new hybrid (in more than one sense) will feature lithium-ion batteries, all the luxury amenities one would expect from the brand and should be available in late 2010 or early 2011 link title

The top-of-the-line 2.1-liter oilburner is producing 204 hp and 368 lb.-ft. of torque, or around 20-percent more than its predecessor, while returning better mileage and reducing emissions by over 10-percent. When fitted in the new C-class (250CDI) it's able to make the run to 60 in 7.7 seconds while getting 46 mpg. link title What a gem of an MB diesel engine. This engine alone may sway me to buy a new MB C-Class.

Replying to: circlew (Apr 11, 2008 3:05 am) But in all honesty almost any car looks beautiful with pictures that have gone through such extensive workshop photo efforts. I saw a salt and dirt covered Jag XKR during a dreary winter day and it did not at all resemble the car on your posted picture.

Replying to: laurasdada (Apr 09, 2008 6:57 pm) Honda's engineering prowess for performance cars is completly lacking today. But that's not it! Honda's engineering prowess for its much acclaimed fuel efficient cars is completely lacking also. It's new Honda Accord is more fuel inefficent than the older model. A far more practical and bigger Toyota Corolla is an equivalent if not better gas miser when compared to the lighter Honda Fit. Honda hybrids are second rate when compared to Toyota's. hybrids And now the Honda diesel 2.2L sold in Europe is nothing special when compared to the new diesel engines from VW. So where the heck is the proof that Honda is such a wonderful engineering company today? Honda reminds me of Volvo which has a similar inflated reputation except in Volvo's case their laurels rests on safety. |
