It just amazes me that they build awesome vehicles

The way I see it, coupes under 50k that arent muscle cars are going to be gone soon. Everyone shopping for a new car wants something with four doors and reasonable. Anyone out spending over lets say 50k on a new car wants whatever they want, and dont care much on the usable factor, because they probably have a daily driver anyway. The mercedes up there is for people who dont need to lug around a family, they probably have an suv or 2 for that. Thats just my 2 cents

I like the weather man on Quahog news.

Brittany is thinking, "I WANT TO DETAIL THAT BUGATTI AND AUDI!!!!!!"

Coupes back in the '50's, '60's, and into the '70s until the gas crunch were bigger cars than today... I could take a picture and show you where the front seat in my Torino is, and I may find one of my Uncle Jerry's '51 Chevy 2 door... juts because it was a 2 door didn't mean it didn't have a back seat, like a lot of 2 doors today basically just have a seat that is only usable by a small child or a girl under 100 lbs. The cars then had REAL back seats that a 6' man could easily sit in. Today, most people associate 2 door cars as basically having 2 practical seats because the cabins are a bit smaller. Plus, years ago a 2 door car was cheaper than a 4 door version of the same car... so a lot of people chose the 2 door. Today, the 4 doors are just as cheap and if not cheaper. Why not take a 4 door then?
