My parents bought a fully loaded Flex last year (it was a 2013 model, brand new, first year of the new facelift thingy). I thought it looked awesome. What a great car that was. It was incredibly quick for a grocery-getter (the 365hp was no match for other typical daily drivers). It sat relatively low to the ground, so I always thought it handled like a sports car (just a little bit), which I wasn't used to. That was such a fun thing to drive. It never disappointed me.
My parents just got rid of that about a month or two ago, and bought a brand new fully loaded F-150 with the same EcoBoost V6 as the Flex. It is way faster than I remembered (it actually has 70 lb-ft torque more than the Flex's EcoBoost V6). They got rid of the Flex because they wanted something with more ground clearance for the winters, and something they could haul things in, pull trailers with, etc. Nevertheless, I am glad to see that same Twin-Turbo V6 sitting in the driveway.

I've been obsessed with these the past few days and I'm not sure why.

I honestly like the Baja aswell, it's a Legacy pickup and I just find that cool for some reason.

I guess because it's a Kia, though I find the Optima comfortably the best-looking car in its class. I don't feel guilty for liking them at all.

Ah, I get it. Kia hahasn't quite shook it's budget line image for most.
I didn't realise because honestly it's quite easy to forget when I've been used to their good stuff.

I'm starting to warm up to the new Cherokee. And that concerns me.
White just makes it look good, for some reason..

Ford S-Max. Must be exactly like the car shown above: a top-spec Titanium X Sport in Ice White.

Fiat 500e Sport Package
I have an odd love for cars that have a bit of flash on them and that apparently extends to electric cars. The looks of the 500 e sport package reminds me of the Abarth 500.

It's one of the only electric cars that I would easily drive with a smile on my face. Of course, that's because it's a Fiat 500 and it's like what Jeremy Clarkson said. It's a car that makes you happy.

Guilty pleasures, eh? I got a few, but here's one that I really have had for a while:
Yes, the Citroen Visa GTI. It is not the prettiest car around, but I just love it for what it is. It's, in essence, a Peugeot 205 GTI with five doors and bulky front wheel arches. It's rare as hen's teeth, it did Group B rallying, and it has an equally crazy rally version with a Lotus engine. And the wacky thing Citroen called an "ad" doesn't help:
This ad is barely consistent, but the story behind it and the ad itself just puts a smile on my face. And so does the car. God bless you, you crazy French people...

Was there an ad like that for the Axel?Huh, a Citroen Axel is far worst. At least the Visa can be fun on a winding road.
