Huh, never thought Toyota would add a lift to the Sienna. I definitely would have been interested in that trim option when we bought our 2018. That said, 0.6 inches probably wouldn’t have been a deal breaker, depending on price. We also love our brown leather interior on our van, so that would be a nice option too. Agree with corsi, an army green version would be hilariously awesome.
I've surprised myself by how much I like the looks of that Hyundai. I'm not a great fan of the wheels, they're a little too busy for my liking, and I think they clash quite badly with an otherwise fairly simple shape with simple details. That aside, said shape and details I quite like, even the "ribbed-for-her-pleasure" sills reminiscent of a 1985 Pontiac Grand Am.
I love that it's getting away from the amorphous blob look of so many modern cars.
It's so you can sleep while you wait the hours and hours for your car to charge
Yeah the wheels are probably like that to minimize drag, I don't mind them but they'll probably look terrible with the slightest layer of dust on the black parts.

Who makes the most interesting wheels these days? There are nice looking wheels out there (ie. GTI's always seem to have nice wheels), but I'm having trouble thinking of anything truly unique from the last decade or two. I guess there's only some much you can do after a while but it seems like it's been a while since we've had some truly iconic wheels come around (ie. AMG Monoblocks, Saab's Aeros, Fuchs, Gold BBS on Subarus, Alfa tele dial, weird turbofans, etc.).
Also weird how people will put black/rusty steelies on their car for half the year thus making any vehicle look like a total POS. I sort of get not wanting to spend an extra $50 per wheel to get something relatively nice (well, not really, but okay), but ffs get some hubcaps at least.

These on the AMG GT43 look good.

Most steelies are gross. But these dished on an old MK2, look dope.

Anyone been following what’s going on with the EPA in the states? Sounds like they’re really cracking down on emissions mods on diesels, which is great. But it also sounds like it’s been coming along with a reinterpretation of the CAA and ‘off-road’ exemptions for production equipment are no longer.
That is, it will be illegal and enforceable to modify any component relating to emissions - from fuel tank, induction, cams, exhaust etc.
The implications of this is terrible. Regular folks can get what their monthly allotment of funds allows them to borrow from corporations, and you’ll be damn well happy with it? If this reinterpretation gains any more traction, it’ll be the end of enthusiast driven, grass roots motor sports.
These mother####ing children who get off on dumping smoke for the sake of it out here better smarten the hell up. That’s the kind of PR that makes your average folk support heavy handed response.

Ah we're doing this one again?
It has been a year or two I guess
