If Alfa doesn't bring the new Gulia to the U.S., there will be riots. Alfa, bring that car here. I don't care if it's Americanized to the point it actually produces negative power, bring it here. Do it Alfa. I promise that I'll buy one.
Their last car came to the US, new one probably will too. Although the 4C was bastardised for US market.
I'm not sure if I'd rather have a Jaguar F-Type R Coupe or that Alfa Romeo Giulia. The BMW M4 styled rear spoiler just does it for me, and it's a manual! It's definitely one of the best looking and most elegant four door sedans around at the moment, and it sounds like it will drive as good as it looks.
It's still the same chassis, so yes, it technically is a proper 86. Besides, it's down less than 20 HP, which is well within what can be achieved with modification.
The 2016 Ford Explorer looks like a Kia & Range Rover had a baby together. - - - Updated - - - Decided I'd make a chart for the confused people of Facebook, I figured It would do no harm to share it here as well.
For Australia yes. In England though, the middle is a "pickup truck" and the bottom is a pickup. It would be a Venn diagram.
I don't get why Ute (short for Coupe Utility) isn't just the national word for coupes with beds/trays. (Here is a Maloo in your neck of the woods 6677)
Because in North America, we don't have utes. Chevy tried to do it with the El Camino from the 50s to the 70s, but it never took off. Pickups are a lot more popular here, because the crowd that wants a bed to throw things in also wants offroad and towing capabilities, and doesn't really care about a low-profile sports-y characteristics. So it's not international if you exclude North America, is it?
The term "ute" is used in a few places, Australia, New Zealand & South Africa. To be honest the crowd of Americans who I tend to speak all would love a ute, there is even a company in America who import the parts & build utes in America so they are road legal. They have a website called LeftHandUtes.com & there is also one bloke I know who is building his own. Pic of that one below
So did Ford with the Ranchero at the same time. Also, Pontiac tried to bring the late 2000's Maloo to the U.S. as a G8 Sport Truck. Unfortunately, because General Motors is disappointment in the United States, it never went into production due to budget cuts.
It wasn't the HSV they planned on bringing to the United States, it was just the Holden variant but still I think it would've been a big hit.
