Sick. As. A. Dog.

I wrote a story a little while back on the situation with the Canadian dollar reaching parity with the US dollar. This caused a fair bit of concern for car shoppers because Canadian car prices are so much higher than comparative prices in the US. It’s actually stronger than the US$ at the moment so the difference is even more marked.

Autoblog have a story about a website that’s sprung up to help Canadians with their cross-border automotive purchasing. Those that commented here seemed pretty savvy on it anyway, but a little detailed help never hurts.

I’m not familiar with Vehix at all, but they’ve got Saabs listed at numbers 5 and 6 of their top 10 list of luxury cars under $35,000.

I suppose that’s a good thing, but it’s a bit of a worry when they’re rating the 2007 models instead of the 2008 and the accompanying picture is of a Saab 9-5. #1 on the list was a Buick Lacrosse and #2 was an FJ Cruiser. Go figure.

How do people secure funding for these sites?

Thanks Stephen

Bengt shot me an email about the new Nissan GT-R. Another Asian design that’s unbeautiful, but boy it’ll go like stonk!

The item of interest concerned the dial layout on the central screen display.
