  1. The Edge has heated seats in the front as well, isn't it standard on the Limited model?
  2. I'm not sure, but if it is, then yes, it may be more economical to end the current 3.0 production and put the improved one in early (although less powerful than the 2010 model's will be to retain the "upgrade in horsepower" line for 2010 models.
  3. That's strange.....and now Tata is interested in buying part of Ferrari....sounds like they're trying to get too much at once to me.
  4. They're getting 300 out of the VQ37 for the FX? I thought the G37 has 330-ish hp, while the G35 sedan gets 300 with it's VQ35?
  5. Isn't the FX50's engine connected to a 7 speed tranny, or is that why you suggested it?
  6. Thought so, which proves that it was a Skyline badged G35.
  7. Here's a Land Rover sporty coupe, the SC, or Sports Coupe I did a few years ago. (actually I did at least the front 2 years ago 5 days ago) I know it doesn't really fit with LR's SUV lineup, but I tried to give it boxy SUV-like styling. The front and back need some work, along with the interior door panels, but I hope you enjoy it. Thoughts?
  8. Here's my BMW 455i, BMW's first 4-door coupe, with an advertisment! Hope you like it, thoughts? I know you all are probably going to make your "wheels too big, windows too small" comments as well. NOTE: Some slight changes to the rear were made to the original design after the colored version was completed (taillights and exhaust). Also, this is the car that served as the base for my 3 circle drawings posted here http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums/index...st&p=306400
  9. I'm not sure about the MPGs, both times I've seen her I didn't have time to look or she was just leaving....and yes she likes it. Also, they've only had it for a few days now.
  10. After looking at pictures of the current and new models side-by-side, it appears they lengthened the FX a bit as well. I still think I like the old one better on the outside, but I'll reserve judgment until I see it in person. This vehicle isn't blatantly ugly like Murano is, where it doesn't matter if you're looking at a picture or seeing it in person. And yes, Michael, I did ask him.
  11. Yes, I know, but I doubt it was from Japan....I think he just had those put on. Do they drive on the right side there? It was a left hand drive model.
  12. Ford decided to do overtime instead of a third shift so they could more easily cut production back if sales start dropping.
  13. Wow, cheap. That's a pretty big jump from premium to diesel are you sure those numbers are right? I don't understand why prices here are so expensive, we live only a few minutes away from Port Everglades where tons of fuel comes in, does it then have to be shipped to refineries elsewhere then shipped back, thus raising the price?
  14. Not a problem I understand....and knew what you meant.
  15. I understand where your coming from, but I too have read about the short 2009 model year, and I wouldn't think Ford would put a new engine into the current Fusion for a 6 month run, at least based on past examples, but who knows this is the "new Ford" we're talking about.
  16. I too have read about a CX-5 Tribute replacement. I have a feeling it will happen eventually, especially if Escape (and Mariner?) are moved to a Kuga-like look/architecture in the future.
  17. Well, looks like Toyota continues that "Triple-tech" frame thing in their seats.
  18. Isn't Ford number 2 for 2008 (I know it's only 2 months, but still)?
  19. The one white light usually in the lower bumper? So the white light between the exhaust on this Alfa 8C is not a reverse light? If so, then where are the reverse lights?
  20. Yes, it's interesting that they have to borrow money to buy them. That brings up the question, how are they going to be able to support them if they're borrowing money to buy them? Does TATA have loads of money sitting around, and if so why do they need a loan to pay for the companies?
  21. It seemed like that to me in the one I sat in (and it was a high end model as well).
  22. Wanna take a stab at any other Ford vehicles?
  23. I agree....that'd be MUCH better than 2011. I've read several contradicting articles, so I don't know what to think/believe anymore.
