BMW X1 to be built in Leipzig {Autoblog}
May 30th 2008 7:10PM Seriously. I thought the X3 was the "entry-level" SUV/SAV. What is the point of making an even smaller SUV? Get a 3-series wagon!

WTF? WTF? WTF?
This must have been written by a grandma to even know what WTF "roll down hose" are.

"car lacks many features found on its competitors"
Such as?
Aside from the hybrid powertrain offered in the Camry I don't think there's anything of significance that its competitors offer that the Accord doesn't.
C7 Corvette could get a dual-clutch transmission {Autoblog}
Oct 2nd 2007 6:01PM Fordman, no need to worry. Ford can keep its traditional automatics. Power to GM! I hope they actually do it.
DSGs/DCTs are fantastic... I drove a GTI with one and it was absolutely amazing. Fast, power-on shifts when you want and you can also just put it in "auto" mode if you're in traffic.

Subaru developing CVT for all models {Autoblog}
Jul 19th 2007 1:50PM Three letters. DSG.
CVT = lame. Ever driven one? You just keep waiting for it to shift. Wait until it breaks. Yeah, I want my transmission based on a belt.
Conventional auto = more lame.
Manual = fantastic if you don't live in a city or don't have to drive into work. I drove one for 18 years and now I had to have a bionic calf implanted.
DSG = best of both worlds.
Porsche 997 hits 100,000 units faster than any other 911 generation {Autoblog}
Jul 11th 2007 4:20PM Not to mention that, in my opinion, the 997 is much better looking than the awkward 996 ever was. It took the step from the 993 that the 996 should've.
