What will your next ride be?

Audi S4 is AWD and nose heavy. Cadillac's styling, build quality, and interiors don't impress me. Lexus IS350 F-Sport left me wanting for way more power due to it's weight.

Get the sport diff. Rotates with ease. Near Zero understeer with sticky tires.
 
Kinda in the middle. I think it with liik great with some Fuzion on it. :)

Audi. It's wonderful piece of engineering, albeit a bit over-engineered. Works awesome though, especially when driven in dynamic mode.
 
Wow.... this is what I'd choose from and money being no object ...

I've always loved the look and body lines of the Porsche 911 "Whale tales" of the 80's/90's
A Foose'd pro-mod 1969 Camaro - gloss white with orange stripes, and modern Foose style jelly bean rally wheels
Year One Bandit edition Trans Am
Year One Eleanor from the Nic Cage "Gone in 60 Seconds"
Nissan Skyline R34

But, I just purchased a new 2019 Camry XSE last year after driving my last one for 14 years. Wind chill white pearl, with blackout badging & trim, black leather interior. Upgraded JL Audio power amp and speakers for clear/balanced music, and I'm still sniffing around for an aftermarket set of wheels for it that are more my taste than the factory wheels.
 
Waiting to see if i can get my hands on a Bronco next spring. Turning in wife's Explorer in December and going to try and get by with my truck and the kids Lexus until the Broncos start coming in. Since Covid she is able to work from home so no more commute for her, at least for time being.
 
The new Bronco has so much pent up demand and so much attention, it will be interesting to see if production will be able to keep up. I've heard of some dealerships getting hundreds of deposits.
 
Late model new or used Chevrolet 1500 Silverado Crew Cab LTZ or Trail Boss.
 
I have a buddy who works at a Ford dealer and he says it will be some time next fall if I don't order one. I don't really want to order one I am just going to sit back and see how many people bail on a order and get one elsewhere. That is how my one buddy ended up with his Raptor.

Are you talking about a Bronco, Silverado or Raptor? If you reply with a quote that would help.
 
Always bought Buicks or Cadillacs but since GM is no longer making the large cars in the States(only China) my next purchase would most likely be a Genesis G90 in black

If you like to drive, check out the Jaguar XE or XF. These cars are often overlooked, a shame because they drive so nice, the steering in particular is a highlight.

Yep, love to drive. Bought a new 09 XF and had it for 2 yrs. Bought it as a second car to knock around in but always ended up driving the Lucerne with northstar I had at the time. Xf was quick but I found the ride a little too firm for me. Looked at the XJ when I found out GM no longer making large cars but they are no longer making gas models in XJ as per my local dealer.
 
If you area fan of Buick's and Caddy's, I think the Genesis is your next logical option.

My mother-in-law drove a series Lincoln town cars for 20 years. When they quit making them and went with the MKS which she and my father-in-law hated because they felt the ride was too firm. She picked up Genesis Equus a few years later and has never left the brand or model since. They really like it.

It is a gigantic car, but its very well made and very luxurious, if that is what you like.
 
Looking to order a 2021 2DR Wrangler Willy's in Snazzberry!!! Hopefully ythe order will be placed in the next month or 2

^^ had my first ride in one a few weeks back. Buddy bought a lower mile 2013 loaded for under $18k and it's on-par ride wise with an S-Class. I don't say that lightly either. Interior was fantastic for what it is.
 
Genesis 70 (maybe G80 if the market does well the next 6 months or so), in Mallorca blue.

I have owned Hyundai products for the last 16 years until I was given a Lexus ES350. Love the Lexus, but I don't think the value is equal to the price. I've always been ecstatic with the three Hyundais I've owned, and particularly feel good about the value / price ratio. But I've gotten to the point where I want more than a Sonata.

Interior is very well made. My ONLY real complaint outside the size is the ride. It's too soft and floaty for me, but many people like it. Having now ridden in three generations of the car it is interesting to see the improvements. The interior has been incremental, but the suspension is light years from the Equus when it first came to the US. That thing would hit the bump stops going over gently rolling road surfaces all the time. No body control at all. It's way better now.

My only hang up with the G70 is the lack of rear seat space. It's very tight. I'd go G80 if I needed to carry passengers.
