Bellanca Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) I figured base pricing would be around $45-50K but with so much standard equipment I have no idea; maybe closer to $60K? Edited November 28, 2018 by Bellanca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In one of the videos above one of the people mentioned price range similar to the BMW X5. The BMW X5 starts at $60,700 for a 2019 model.

rmc523 Posted November 28, 2018 Author Share Posted November 28, 2018 This was the first picture I've seen for the Flight Black Label theme. Why they didn't show full interior pictures, including the Black Label variants, I don't understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadicalX Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I'm reading the commentary session on the Jalopnik and the receipt of the specifications of the aviator and the car itself is being positive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That photo has a crazy bright flash, which is altering how the colors would really look. 40 minutes ago, silvrsvt said: The Aviator isn’t officially released till 6:30PM EST/3:30 PST at the LA auto show I believe.

I actually agree with this.... full interior pics would lost a lot of the texture and detail, which in a design like this would look *really* flat. I expect you'll see the "roof cutaway" views soon to see colors and layout, but I'm confident that they wanted the detail and close-up shots out there in the first cycle.

I knew she had meant to say 'pounds' only when revealing the torque but must have been so excited to reveal the power figures that she messed up.

I was at the press conference at LA Auto Show and there was a huge gasp from the crowd when they splashed the 600 lb-ft number on the big screen. People went nuts and started cheering and applauding. They had to stop the presentation for about 30 seconds for the crowd noise to level off. And these were mostly jaded journalist and industry people (i.e. employees of other car companies and suppliers) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
