I do not like this car. I don't like the way it looks. It causes me discomfort on so many levels.

Every time I see one on the s͢t҉re͞et͏ I get abdominal pains.

I don't get that mofo, either, Thud. Ditto for that ghetto-assed Kia Soul. I think that mofo's the millennial incarnation of the AMC Gremlin! :ack:

That doesn't mean squat when the car is apparently designed by the same people that designed the bugs in Starship Troopers.

The Kia Soul is the #3 selling car in the Houston zone.

THOSE set a new standard for FUGLY ok, but the one's I don't get are the modern Cubes.....or anything that looks similar....

for some reason some folks like to prove they have NO taste...

I work at a Nissan dealership. First Juke I saw I said very loudly, "That's the ugliest freakin' car I've ever seen." Now that I've been around them a while, I'm sure it's the ugliest freakin' car I've ever seen.:shots:

I seem to get the sense that you're not overly fond of the Beetle. :lol:

So, I probably shouldn't be driving one of those cars around in a hurricane. Good to know.


+1 for "I think all these "cube" cars are ugly, but hey, I have a c-4, so what do I know about taste and refinement? If the cars are selling, more power to the folks that buy and sell them.

BUT it is a overall SAD comment on our society that so many consider it even acceptable let along desirable enough to BUY.....

:cheers:

not that I have any fish in the river over that one, that is their problem, I just reserve the right to snicker and snarl over their lack of intelligence or refinement....

How does it compare to the 135/335 turbo as far as acceleration?

Yeah, still ugly.

Well the numbers aren't as good, but to the butt-o-meter it feels quicker at speeds below 40mph, even compared to my 135i. It's not as quick on the highway, but it doesn't give up much to a 335i.

I calculated (on another forum) that a 335d has 8% greater peak acceleration in each gear compared to a 335i (steptronic). That takes into account gearing and weight differences. However, it shifts sooner so the 335i still gets it on the top end.

The power delivery is way different. The power curve actually reminds me of my old L98 vette, but with a lot more torque. It's a brute on the low and midrange, but like the L98 the fun is over at 4500rpm. Then it upshifts and you get another kick in the pants.

You can be cruising along at certain speeds and give it some right pedal to pass-- and rather than downshift, the engine just grows a big hairy pair of balls and shoves you the f*** forward because downshifting is for pussies.

If I see a male is driving this car it's screaming I love Asian chics and have good credit. I have a small condo and haven't got a ticket since 98. Also my balls don't produce testosterone.

If a female driving it's screaming I have small tits, don't like sex, I bring my own tree hugging bag and hold up the grocery line, I'm an assistant somewhere at some lame company because I complain to HR about everyone else to climb the corporate ladder without sucking dick.
