    One thing that I continue to hate about American car manufacturers is the inclusion of non-functioning ports. On the hood of that car, there are two ports that are filled by solid pieces of plastic. No air can enter or leave them. The car comes pre-riced. Either make it function or don't include it, idiots.

    Of the 3 "new" models ('stang, camaro challenger) I think the chevy looks the best because of its fresh, futuristic look.
    That's the reason i don't like it I like the old vintage original look of the challengers front, especially the grill with the name and the headlights...

    Good cause they are making up for a couple prior generations of solid honeycomb-esque hood and rear break scoops.

    Well, to be fair to my generation, mustangs have had fake scoops since the 60's.

    Hood scoops are more to make the car look better in most cases anyway. I have a ram air system in my T/A that works but is very loud when you stand in front of the car, kinda sounds like the car is hissing at you. I do agree i hate seeing the little plastic wall inside of the scoops.

    Is that Dodge Ram with hood scoop thing out there a fad, or is that OEM? They have no shame with it. They didn't even try to make the scoop look convincing.

    That AMG is awesome!

    Starting to like the new E-class - even though I honestly hated it, when I first saw it.

    12.6L/100km. Not bad for a 525HP vehicle the size of Belgium.
