Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Both were in Seal Gray, so I don't think it was the color.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just got back from McCormick Place. Somehow to these two eyes, the extra aerodynamics on the GT-2, make it look heavy, and a little busy. By contrast, the C4S looks smooth, sculpted and sleek. Both were in Seal Gray, so I don't think it was the color. Passers-by, who probably didn't know what they were looking at were all commenting on the $193,000 MSRP. Boxsters were getting very little attention. A lot more people were oogling the M-3 and M-5 than the P-cars. Hmmmm. Reassuringly, kids 8 thru teens, still gush over the 911s. (That's how brands are built.) Ford was showing the GT40. It looks great. Very true to the original, and lots of detailing under the hood. It's actually 44" tall, but they don't call it the GT44. They had an original GT-40 there, and the remake is not as exquisitely proportioned, or as petite. I've seen press reports with everything from $100,000 to $200,000 if they build it. At 100 Gs, that is a lot of car - 500 HP supercharged V-8. The brakes looked huge. If it's anywhere near the Turbo's price, PAG has a problem. By far the most crowded stand was the Mini. If you go by people per square inch, BMW has a huge hit. Which may make up for the dud that the 7 series could be. The rear of the car is way over designed. Jeep had a concept car called the Compass based on the Liberty chassis that looked very hot. Sorta sportscar, sorta SUV, and would be a whole lot cheaper than a Cayenne. SUVs did not look like a saturated or dying category. They were getting a lot of attention. The new Maserati is very ho-hum in styling, and looked cheap. At 80-100,000 and the stepping stone to Ferrari, it should look more substantial. All just my dos centavos. M in C
