    Cadillac builds last STS(Seville) and DTS(Deville) last week. The (almost)* extinction of the traditional big American sedan....

    Ford wants taxi operators in the States to switch to Transit Connects.

    I believe Nissan is going to be the largest manufacturer of NYC taxis.

    Damn, this is pretty sad to see. Iconic and symbolic cars will be replaced by the same aul boring shíte you see everywhere.

    Yet Audi and BMW seem to sell tons of A8Ls and 750iLs over there...
    Not to mention the S-Class's. Im not an American car basher (quite the fan of some), but IMO, these are some examples of pretty crappy cars.

    Indeed it looks like something Ken might take Barbie for a ride in its so tacky. Or a car that some spoiled brat in that super sweet 16 tv tripe would order 10 of to give to his friends
