Title: New Cars For 2017
Post by: Palumboism on October 13, 2016, 01:43:11 PM
Most of the new cars this year carry a very evolutionary design theme even thought they are clean sheet designs.


2017 CRV

This is a 100 percent clean sheet design, nothing carries over from the old model, yet it looks almost identical and most people won't be able to tell the difference.

well the tide has changed they are still safe tenfold but they are in the market to sell more by better design and interiors and state of  the art electronics now,,,maintaining an older vehicle can get pricey but most maintences cost avg 500/1000 depending on whats needed oil/filters/brakes...suspension and other older wear parts on older vehicles are costly and any modules needed avg 1000/1500

This is state of the art manufacturing automation.

Car design peaked in the 90s aesthetically speaking. 90% of the gizmos they build in to jack up the price you don't even need. I'll take my s14 over any of the new cars in terms of looks.

I do however, love what Ford has been doing with their hot hatches. I'm hoping they do a fiesta RS that would be one bad little car  8)

Ridiculous.  

The CRV's the fifth best selling vehicle in America.  Ahead of the Camry, RAV4, Civic, and Accord.  Only the F-Series, Ram, Silverado, and Corolla out sell it.  I think they know what they're doing.   ;)

Sept 2016 Sales
#1   Ford F-Series   67,809
#2   Ram P/U   47,792
#3   Chevrolet Silverado   45,380
#4   Toyota Corolla   32,272
#5   Honda CR-V   31,884
#6   Toyota Camry   30,707

#8   Honda Civic   28,184
#9   Honda Accord   27,204
#10   Nissan Rogue   26,459

I'm sure they would love to hear your advice on how to design a steering wheel like the 1960's Plymouth Grand Fury.  Unfortunately the Plymouth brand is out of business.

People using cars as basic transportation needs to stop right now!  Damn those Japanese for making such reliable fuel efficient vehicles! :D

Thirteen of the top twenty five best selling vehicles are Japanese or Korean.

Yes that 5 series is BORING! like you said, just a facelift on the exterior. Interior looks exactly the same. Having said that, I'd love one for free! Still a nice car, but nothing very new there. BMW seems to go through phases where their cars exterior looks are aweful. It took them so many years to get the 7 series to look even half way decent. It's like they can't get it right.

Wouldn't the Bronco still be made by Ford? Hence, making it not prone to breaking down. I mean it would most likely have the engine of a Ford Explorer, Expedition, etc? Ford engines are battle tested and last forever!

Great cars and very safe; one of the best choices for a family vehicle. Since you work for Volvo, how is reliability and maintenance cost?
Part of the reason why Volvo are safe cars is because they are in the shop all the time and not on the road. I used to work at a Volvo dealership and on the weekends the service line would wrap around the building.

newer cars are waste of money

Buying cars is all about mileage.  How many miles does it have on it and how many miles can I put on it.  I always buy Japanese cars which can usually get 200,000 miles if you maintain them properly.  If the car has 50,000 miles on the clock, I know I can put 150,000 miles on it.  On the other hand, if it has 150,000 miles on it, I can only put 50,000 miles on it.

Another thing you need to remember is most people can't work on their own cars, so they have to spend a lot of money to fix them.  You know how to fix a car, so it just comes down to the cost of parts.  So for you owning a new car doesn't make sense.   For most people who need a reliable car and don't want to spend a lot on repairs a new car or a leased car actually makes sense.  You have a monthly payment, but you also have reliable transportation and no repair bills.  My car has 160,000 miles on it and I've been averaging over $1500 a year in repair bills.

Like I said, they have funky years where the exterior of The 7 series look so bad! Sorry buddy, and that's not just my opinion. Especially for what that car costs fully loaded, there are better options. But if you like it? That's all that matters.  :D And in your second post you talk about wanting to be able to have a car that you can put 200, 000 miles on it. Well guess what??? That car with 200,000 miles is going to look like hell!!!! Some of us like cars that look good, and are not ancient and look like crap because it can get 200k miles on it. So if you like old ass beat up cars with 2k on them. Have at it. ::)

I usually buy cars with 100,000 miles on them that are in mint condition and sell them with 200,000, looking exactly the same as the day I bought them.  I'm currently driving a 2005 Subaru Outback LL Bean edition with leather seats, a flat six, and AWD that looks brand new.   My last car was a 2000 Outback that I sold at 200,000 miles looking just as good as the day I bought it. In America we drive more than in Europe and most of the mileage is highway mileage.  

I understand the 7 Series had some controversial years with what was known as the Bangle Butt, referring to Chris Bangle the head of BMW design.  I never had a problem with the Bangle Butt.

Did you know that Subaru has historically been the car choice of lesbians and they specifically have targeted them in advertising.  Owning a Subaru was/is considered a silent calling card for being a homosexual/lesbian.

How an Ad Campaign Made Lesbians Fall in Love with Subaru



I'm aware of the fact that lesbians like Outbacks.  It doesn't bother me and I would not factor it into my considerations of buying a third one.

Buying cars is all about mileage.  How many miles does it have on it and how many miles can I put on it.  I always buy Japanese cars which can usually get 200,000 miles if you maintain them properly.  If the car has 50,000 miles on the clock, I know I can put 150,000 miles on it.  On the other hand, if it has 150,000 miles on it, I can only put 50,000 miles on it.

Another thing you need to remember is most people can't work on their own cars, so they have to spend a lot of money to fix them.  You know how to fix a car, so it just comes down to the cost of parts.  So for you owning a new car doesn't make sense.   For most people who need a reliable car and don't want to spend a lot on repairs a new car or a leased car actually makes sense.  You have a monthly payment, but you also have reliable transportation and no repair bills.  My car has 160,000 miles on it and I've been averaging over $1500 a year in repair bills.

High mileage in just 3 or 4 years = very young car with low price. Ideal with say 4 cilinder Toyota or Hondas imo
They can do a lot more than 200,000 miles with very minor repair costs I think

I prefer a perfectly maintained 4 year young 125,000 miler over an 8 year old 60,000 mile car. Most buyers are more afraid of high mileage than of an old car.

I  work for Volvo service xc90 and s90 sedan are outstanding looks wise...
they really made a hitrun with the design on both... To bad the xc90 has had alot of troubles here in Sweden with chassi fit.. The doors not lined in,  frontliights frogeyed same with the fitting on the trunkdoor.. For thr r version on many vcars it looks like someone sawed uneven with a knife in the plastic to make room for towbar


Look at this guys new car.. Many more have had the same problem

I am looking for a new car but am somewhat worried about CVTs and am primarily interested in a Subaru and require an automatic transmission due to being handicapable and from what I see the CVT is the only auto available on a Lezbaru.  ;D

I've driven both the Outback and Forester with the CVT and was impressed by how well they worked.  I can't comment on the reliablity.

I drive a 251,000 mile Honda with cvt, works perfect. Small engine but very low rpm because of the cvt
Honda advises to change the cvt fluid every 40,000 km or 25,000 miles

Toyota cvt transmissions have a very good reputation reliability wise I think

Is that the US version of the European 'Qashqai'  I've got one which was new mid last year ...love it.  Automobile-wise, I've finally arrived - very smoothly - in the 21st Century LOL  Huge moon-roof, more storage space then The Ark, and best of all:  due to the almost unappreciable turbo-lag it's remarkably quick off the line (bearing in mind that 'Qashqai' in Japanese means "fat girl...   :o)

Nice to fantasize about Lambo's, Benz's and BMW's, but the fact is most viewing this thread could never afford one of these, let alone new car.

For the last 20 years I've owned 2 (used) cars: a 1997 Honda Civic and 2007 Accord.  Got me from point A to point B.  Incredible reliability and fuel efficiency.  That's all you need.
