cintron Posted August 19 Report Share Posted August 19 Maybe, just maybe... if they could make the body a little bigger and the wheels a little smaller, I think we could confuse it for a short bus. really. the wheels are too big. no really.

bigpoppanils Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Originally posted by joeg hows the saab? i've never had one or known anyone whos had one... the powertrain has been fine, except for some very annoying turbo lag (not so bad in "sport" mode though...but then the car eats gas like crazy). the jd power rating of saab was worse than both audi and bmw....the only marques that were worse than Saab were VW, Mini, and Hummer.its had to go to the dealer 3 times (outside of normal servicing)...twice it needed to be towed (tranny fluid leaks). Both tranny leaks occured within the first month that I had it. its been great since then.i just wish it had a bit more power, as well as a couple of anti-roll barsas far as BMW's go, the JD Power rating was surprising. However, one of my neighbors recently used the lemon law against BMW for her 325i. BMW gave her down payment back. Now she's in a Saab 9-5....so far no issues.

sassa Posted August 23 Report Share Posted August 23 this car is so hideous, i can't believe would drive this piece of crap and not feel ashamed...the HONDA ELEMENT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cintron Posted August 23 Report Share Posted August 23 hhahahaha my cousin has a Honda Element. Actually, you think it's realy really ugly when you see it in pics, but when you get up close and see it in person it's really not that bad. The two-tone plastic fender concept definitely has to go though.as for the PT Vert - i really have nothing to say to that, aside from we finally have a car that tops the VW Cabrio and 'vert beetle.THe car itself doesn't look so horrible - it's the tools that are going to buy it that just ruins the whole image for me.

The Colt/Lancer platform would have been a much better choice. Supposedly the next Neon/PT will use that platform. Thank God. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
