    2025 Mercedes-Benz GELÄNDEWAGEN 550 and G 63

    I think non digital dash g63s are in less demand so less mark up. It just is meh lol. With V-8s dying every day the value will continue to hold

    2025 Mercedes-Benz GELÄNDEWAGEN 550 and G 63

    G63 is still one of the most in demand vehicles after 5 years. Good luck getting one. The G550 losing the V-8 will likely piss off NEW purists but the G wagon has offered I-4/5/ V-6 etc for decades. V-8 came along I think in 1993 or so. As with all things not shocked it lost the V-8 for hybrid 6.

    I understand that. But like it’s rarely even mentioned by the media.

    Hyundai Motor Group no No. 3 automaker in sales volume | More fires

    It’s a weird launch tbh. The name is silly.. The lineup is odd G60 which I assume is just the same stuff in the Ioniq5 N No G70 which probably means that’s dead No GV70 is weird G80 makes sense but seems ME only GV80 coupe i guess makes sense The playstation only vehicle for whatever reason...

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    So true. In two years I’ve seen maybe ten total nationwide. So rare and cool. People are always curious about the 600. It’s a major reason to go with over the GX which will be much more popular. If that sort of thing is important. It’s wild to see more G63s than LX’s.

    3rd Generation Lexus GX (GX 550, GX 550h) Megathread

    No one is screaming about it like Supra/BMW but they are using the BMW V-8. Wonderful motor.

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    I think 2025 is early for an LX MMC or maybe not. Kinda related the 2025 G 550 now has a turbo 6 mild hybrid. The G63 continues with the V-8 and mild hybrid.

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    Now it makes a ton of sense why we didn’t get the LC 300. Would not have fit anywhwre here. LC 250 makes a ton of sense now. My personal thoughts, maybe we get a larger LX more Sequoa sized next time around. Middle east get the GX. LX now has more room to breathe. Again what worries me is...

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    We have a couple guys here. From what I’ve talked about and translated it seems there is a high level of loyalty to Lexus & Toyota. I’ve had some private messages (for years tbh) the LX interior isn’t great and how now that new QX80 destroys it. I then look at some IG accounts comparing the two...

    The entire EV market has tanked. Rz and the toyota and subie twins don’t move. Mach-e. Fisker going bankrupt. Etc etc in other news this looks very good to me

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    I think the LX is more world based particularly the middle east whereas the GX is more USA centered, thus the GX is turned more for our tastes. I also assume they learned quickly what they would like to see in the LX and put it in the GX. Finally I assume the LX will get many of these upgrades...

    2023 Honda CR-V

    RAV-4 Prime > CR-V 😝 Not going to argue with the conclusion they both are good. Since I’m not 105 years old I’ll take the much more rugged and original looking RAV-4. The RAV-4 had ALL-TERRAIN tires, not All Seaon so no way it was going to hang with anything in regards to handling. If they...

    Interesting to think the Honda CR-Z was maybe 15 years too early. It wasn’t great but did offer a manual.
