    So production flexibility has grown to the point where BMW, Audi, and others can provide dozens of models, most of which are only a few % different from the next (in size, performance, price...)

    But nobody ever seems to stop and ask "WTF?" WTF?

    I see an Audi coming,
    it's commin round the bend,
    but I haven't seen this since I don't know when
    But I'm stuck in this American prison,
    and time keeps dragging on
    But that Audi keeps rollin, down on to the Frankfurt Aut-o Show.

    Make it with a 6-speed and I'm (hypothetically) in. Make it with a diesel also, and I'm (hypothetically) in for two.

    @It's a Camaro: I'm just looking at the hatch part. Besides, I like to hoon as much as the next guy, but most of my driving is of a more dull commuting variety, set the cruise at 120km/h sort of thing (if I had cruise control). Modern diesels tend to be perfect for that sort of thing.

    Buy a Skoda liftback and a motorcycle. It's basically the same thing, just not, um, together. Right.

    This trend of riotous interior colors needs to stop, please. There is a reason we disposed of red and blue interiors once the '80s ended.

    There are only four tasteful colors for an interior: black, brown, grey, and tan.

    @dal20402: Maybe it's because I'm on my third car with a coloured interior (two blues and a red), but the world has enough beige. I like this.

    @dal20402: After having two Accords with the generic ivory cloth/brown dash Honda interior, I beg to differ. My current 4Runner SR5 has aftermarket two-tone gray leather, which is the closest thing to an interesting car interior I've ever had.

    I say bring back red, white and blue. I'd love to have a new Mustang with the red leather interior and black dash/carpet. Hell, I'd have green vinyl over the insomnia-curing colors that plague most new cars.

    @dal20402: Tan is DEFINITELY up for debate there, comrade. On the other hand, blue cannot be argued as a valid interior colour, provided that it's a tasteful navy.

    58,000 Euros is about 75-76 000 $....

    Thank you, I'll take CTS-V and eat bisexual A5 Sportback for lunch...

    Btw, that 75 large isn't enough for you tu buy A5 as is on this pictures. Audi ( at least in Europe ) is know for low level of standard equipment. So for that money, you'll get a steering wheel and one seat. Everything else you'll have pay extra...

    So....where is my CTS-V?
