    Why is Ford changing the styling for the North American market again? What's wrong with it? I know it'll be a minor change, mostly a bumper job. But this kind of crap makes me more angry than say, a totally new sheetmetal.


    The last car to do that to me was... Saab 9-3 SportCombi. I went to the auto show thinking it'll have the crushed ice-effect taillamps that the European versions had, but noooooo. For some lameass reason, they had to have the clear red reflectors. Out of blinding rage, I slammed the taillamp of the US spec 9-3 SportCombi, prompting a poor Saab booth professional to rush to the car asking if everything was okay. Then I gave a long rant about how the 9-3 doesn't have the awesome crushed ice taillamps, which must have confused the dear girl. Sigh... I think that was the same year a Mitsubishi sales manager told me to get bigger aftermarket turbos on an Evo since we don't get FQ-400s here.


    Well. I was vindicated though, since the later 9-3s all get crushed ice taillamps anyway.

    I have seen the future and it is toy-like, tiny fugly-assed jellybeans on tiny wheels with engines an old sewing machine would outpower.

    Okay, screw my memory, but has any subcompact ever been hyped this much?

    Couldn't they have dropped an American-market Focus from the roof? Onto bitumen? In freefall?

    And to think the most exciting thing I saw at a New York Auto Show two years ago was the Maserati GT. Which I then saw a few months later on a New Jersey highway in Newark.


    New York Auto Show equals lame.

    Good job on the coverage yesterday. Through the haze of sickness (I'm not quite dead yet) I was able to every now and then feed my Jalopcrack addiction.

    @KaptKaos: I agree on the TT much more visually appealing than the original.


    But the mazda looks like some kind of demented lamprey with that butt-fugly grill.

    Hey Wes, i heard that the Polo is going to be offered in a 170hp GTI version.


    also that VW is planning to bring it stateside if gas prices remain the way they are


    straight from the NY Times to boot!


    BTW any newer info on the Golf GTI R20? i mean any sneak peaks before its official debut? or any updates on the regular GTI?


    stay tuned i suppose....

    If you're actually in Geneva, which I think you are, I recommend the Château de Chillon, probably the most beautiful place I've ever been.

    Iosis?


    Really?

    As in, "halitosis"?


    Or "I owe Sis"?


    Will there be an Iobro? That's actually cooler.

    Seats won't make it to production,

    Roof won't make it to production,

    Doors won't make it to production,

    Dashboard won't make it to production,


    Looks, though, Ford Europe being awesome, probably will.


    Business as usual then.


    Colour probably won't won't make it to production, but a PM yellow minivan is possibly pushing the envelope too far.
