First one that comes to mind is the NSX. Reviewers like them apart from the interior. on the used market they're selling for ⅔ of the price when new and they're all low mileage from what I see.
That’s a great call out! At the time, they were a reliable entry point into the hybrid supercar, similar to how the original NSX was the first exotic that could be used every day. -G
Greg shout out for the HR-V. Our family car is the CR-V. I suppose this educator household ticks the box for “teacher car”. Finally, a shout out for the small/midsize Honda reliable crossover SUV!!
Sorry guys, i do think that either of you has any idea about cars .I can read your faces that you are joking. I drove in my life mercedes, audi,and a big variety of Americans cars. The last 4 years i own and drive dally 2017 ghibli sq4, and i think it is the best car i ever drove. Very reliable, very good-looking, and the drive is very superb .
I haven't owned anything particularly bad, but I've had a tendency to date girls with terrible cars (maybe they were using me for free mechanicing 😆). Worst was a 2001 Bonneville SSEI. It was her first car and don't know why her parents thought it was a good idea to get their daughter a severely neglected GM performance product from this era. But at 16 years old it basically needed one of everything. Every fluid I drained from it was darker and murkier than the last. The supercharger pulley seized and threw the belt so had to change it, also had it's own integrated oil that had never been changed and that stank like the worst gear oil you've ever smelled. Air filter was caked full of dirt. Bad O2 sensors, spark plugs were shot. The coolant was rancid with metal flakes, brakes were shot, lines rusty, interior falling apart, headlights yellow, and clear coat baking off. Not GM's best to begin with, but it astounded me that it was still running considering how rough it was.
I LOVED that generation of Bonneville in SSEi trim. Hard to believe there were so many issues with the 3800 SC, was known for being stout. As a kid, I tried very hard to convince my Dad he needed one of those. -G
The F type should be kept alive...perhaps hybrid (think Cx16..the ZF8 tranny was designed to handle an electric motor.....). The F type is better looking than almost all other cars bar none. Pre-face lift.... They need to rehire Ian Callum.
Existing F-type owners hate the new one because it makes the previous gen car look dated. Don’t get me wrong, I love the original design, but the new look did what it needed to do: It updated the car, and they did an incredible job.
Jaguar no longer stands out. E type came down a road everyone stoped and stared, now it's hard to make one out. Also the recharge infrastructure is not available in the uk.
Great point - Jaguars used to be distinctive and now largely blend in with the crowd. Hopefully their EV transition can bring back that level of distinction.
Greg, totally agree on the Lotus Elise! I'd love one of those for a mountain car. My last Dragon visit, Josh Smathers met up with me in his Factory 5 Cobra. Made about 5 or 6 passes and decided we'd best stop at that. He's a brave man!
Good one guys! Here's mine: Daily: 2023 CT5-V optioned to $70k Classic: 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 ~$200,000 Sports Car: Agree with you Greg, 2023 718 GT4 RS ~$250,000 Supercar: 2023 McLaren 720S ~$300,000
6th Gen sales are really lackluster compared to Mustang and Challenger. Despite being the lightest and most advanced chassis, the styling was polarizing, and the visibility and ergonomics still suck.
1. What makes this work is the humorous banter. It gets technical, but the humor is what really makes this work. Keep it rolling!! 2. Greg is definitely getting an Escalade as his next “Dadillac”.
3:14 Most people would argue that you could just a generator to counter the range on an EV car but for me that defeats the purpose of a car whose purpose is to be electrical to conserve gas and what not because you're technically still using gas to fuel your car.
