I didn’t think that anyone liked those. Ever. In the history of history.

I also wouldn’t quite call them big. They’re the same size as the Jeep Cherokee. You know. The Dart based one.

Since they first came out, I always thought they looked sleek, sporty even. I still have never been in one, but that greenhouse looks like it’s got great visibility. ...And that’s it. That’s all the praise I have to offer for these.
"Chariotoflove" (chariotoflove)
08/28/2017 at 22:55, STARS: 4
You know, I like the ELR. It’s NOT just a Volt.
I even like the commercial. There, I said it.

Exactly. They started out over priced. People mistakenly thought that made them bad cars.

"shop-teacher" (shop-teacher)

Liking the ELR is perfectly rational, it’s gawjeous. Good architect’s car too, it fits.
"Bman76 (hates WS6 hoods, is on his phone and has 4 burners now)" (bman76-4)
08/28/2017 at 23:02, STARS: 2
Yeah, I thought Doug’s review was dickish for no reason. The only thing that hurts them (in my mind) is that a used Volt is more practical and cheaper.
"benjrblant" (benjblant)
08/28/2017 at 23:02, STARS: 6
VehiCross.
"Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo" (thetomselleck)
08/28/2017 at 23:05, STARS: 2
Shouldn’t the fact that they’re so cheap right now be a positive? Also if it’s not German or maybe Italian, ol’ Doug won’t like it.

Yeah you’ve gone off the deep end. TBH I thought these looked cool when they came out, but they were total crap. Fortunately they’ve pretty much all rusted away. I saw one on the road the other day actually and had a sudden realization that I see more K cars around these days than first gen Intrepids.
"Chariotoflove" (chariotoflove)
