So we all know the CarSPIN consensus

[TheIntrepid]

No, you can get it in the 2.5 GT.

I thought all 2.5GTs this year are 2.5GT Limiteds, and only with an auto... and the Spec.B is the only way to get a stick with the turbo.

[JYODER240]

For yourself, or for anyone?

I can't see myself buying any of these. I think its hard to justify the Camry over the others for anyone.

Well, if the money tree at the beach house has a poor yield some year in the future, you might have to buy one of these.

Nah, i'll just be like some guy living in the past. Trying to look sweet in my Z even though its year 2015.

[Raza]

Isn't the Spec.B limited run only?

It was, but it is now a full model.  The current spec.B is essential a 2.5GT Limited, but with a 6 speed manual transmission and standard GPS.

[Raza]

Of this lot, I don't think I'd buy any.  I'd buy a spec.B or a Mazda6s 5 door, but not a 2.5GT or 6 saloon.

It's very easy to justify over the Accord for someone who isn't concerned with handling. More safety features, lower price, more space, more comfortable ride, quieter.

Liberty 2.5GT, closely followed by Mazda6. I'd be interested to try a V6 6 - we only get the 4 cylinder and diesel versions.

[cawimmer430]

Subaru hands down. Best looking by far, AWD and simply gorgeous.

[TheIntrepid]

Liberty 2.5GT,

Was that a joke my Aussie friend?

[93JC]

No, the Legacy as we know it is called Liberty in Australia.

As a result the vehicle we know as Liberty is sullying the name Cherokee...

[nickdrinkwater]

There's really no right way of going about it: you hate America and you're a shallow automotive consumer.

(Just taking the piss )

   

It's Cherokee here too.  But we don't have a Subaru Liberty, so I guess it's for marketing reasons, right?

[the Teuton]

You don't want to give it too American sounding of a name when you sell it overseas.

[93JC]

Yeah, it's Cherokee outside of North America mostly for marketing reasons. The XJ Cherokee (the small, boxy one) was pretty much the first and only Jeep to sell in reasonably good numbers overseas, so they felt it more prudent to name the successor (KJ) 'Cherokee' just to keep the name recognition.

[93JC]

Also prevented the awkward situation of having a Grand Cherokee and no Cherokee below it...

[nickdrinkwater]

I see.  I actually think Cherokee sounds pretty American too, though obviously not as much so as Liberty.

Is the Grand Cherokee still Grand Cherokee in America?  Grand Liberty would sound shit.

[93JC]

It's still Grand Cherokee.

[TheIntrepid]

Mark is your ...em... classic... a Grand Cherokee or just a Cherokee?

[Vinsanity]

I see.? I actually think Cherokee sounds pretty American too, though obviously not as much so as Liberty.

'Cherokee' is about as American as you can get

[TheIntrepid]

'Cherokee' is about as American as you can get

No, the most American you can get is a 5'8/260lbs white guy with a mullet driving a Dodge Ram or a '98 Camaro.

[93JC]

Looks like that.

[MX793]

No, the most American you can get is a 5'8/260lbs white guy with a mullet driving a Dodge Ram or a '98 '88 Camaro Iroc-Z.

[TheIntrepid]

Well you certainly fit the profile of a Calgary-er.

BTW my mom's in Calgary right now...right near the Chinook Center.

[93JC]

Calgarian, and WTF is that supposed to mean?

BTW my mom's in Calgary right now...right near the Chinook Center.

Chinook Centre. Not 'the' Chinook Centre, mind you, just Chinook Centre. Like 'SkyDome' vs. 'the SkyDome'.

think a little further back

[The Pirate]

Trans Am with the screaming chicken on the hood is all over that.  Just need a couple of Van Halen and Whitesnake albums.

[SVT666]

Yeah, I'd like to know too.

Fine. Ford F-150 then?
