| 2000-2002 Toyota Mark II Series IX |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Would it be possible for the Toyota Mark II and Mark X to have their generation marker say "Series" instead of "Mk."? Right now it says "Toyota Mark II Mk. IX", which is kind of confusing. | 2018-04-30 11:41 | |
| 2005-2011 Toyota Prius (Prius EX) II |
Desscythe17 (9358) | From 2009 to 2011, this car was sold as Prius EX alongside the Prius III. The Prius EX was only available as a fleet vehicle. | 2018-04-29 19:08 | |
| Since 2018 Lamborghini Urus |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Looks much better than the concept from 6 years ago actually. Still, I'd prefer it if it didn't exist. |

| Since 2015 Jaguar XE S [X760] |
carcrasher88  (13) | Well, word has it that the ATS and CTS will be replaced by two new models with the 'CT' nameplating, specifically a CT3 and CT4 to replace the ATS (not sure if the 3 would be the sedan and 4 the coupe, similar to BMW, or perhaps the reverse), and a CT5 to replace the CTS. It also seems like the Japanese brands are the only ones sticking to their guns with cars, along with crossovers and SUVs. Mitsubishi's sticking with the Mirage and Mirage G4 for the long run, even with just three CUVs alongside it in the lineup. Honda's keeping a great mix in their lineup, with CUVs based on or closely related to their cars, but not at the expense of the cars (Fit/HR-V, Civic/CR-V, Accord/Pilot), plus a truck and a minivan (Honda being only one of two brands in the US offering a pickup and a minivan in their lineup, the other being Toyota, because I'm not sure if the Transit Connect truly fits as a minivan), and will likely benefit the most from other company's product cuts. |

Desscythe17 (9358) | I agree, it seems very unwise for all of them to go after the same thing. Even if there is a crossover craze right now, I don't think there is unlimited demand for them. And like you say, if the gas prices climb again, consumers will be running back to economic cars, and these companies will just look stupid with showrooms full of SUVs. Regarding the cars I mentioned, it's just straight out of the Autoblog articles, might not be 100% accurate. Apparently the boss at Cadillac recently changed, and the old one was very reluctant to get rid of all those sedans. Now that there is someone new, it seems likely that Cadillac will cut at least the XTS, perhaps also the CTS and ATS. I would be surprised if they discontinue the CT6, seeing how that is the newest car they have. |

carcrasher88 (13) | Ford's cuts are pretty much confirmed. From what I've heard ONE of the three (300, Charger, Challenger) will get cut, with replacements for the other two coming in 2021. I've heard about GM considering cutting the Sonic, Impala, Volt and XTS, but nothing about the LaCrosse or CT6. The XTS needs to go, anyway. It really doesn't make sense to have two similarly sized sedans in the lineup, even if one is FWD and the other RWD. Kinda similar to why Lexus is considering cutting the GS and keeping the ES. Still, the automakers are gonna eventually kill the US auto market with crossovers and SUVs, especially when gas prices are on the climb once again...and, even after the summer season is over, they're not likely to go back down as much as they have. |

| 2018 Everus EV |
carcrasher88 (13) | I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but this concept is clearly an EV version of the Honda Vezel/HR-V. | 2018-04-27 05:12 | |
| Since 2015 Jaguar XE S [X760] |
Desscythe17 (9358) | I've been reading a few articles on Autoblog lately, and it seems the American market is going to be nothing but crossovers and SUVs. Ford is planning to stop producing all cars that aren't crossovers/SUVs in the US, other than the Mustang and the new Focus Active. Chrysler is looking to stop producing the 300 and Charger. GM has apparently been thinking about axing a lot of models, starting with the Chevy Sonic, Impala and Volt, Buick LaCrosse, and Cadillac XTS and CT6. If the big three do this, there will basically be no American sedans left, which leaves the market to the Korean and Japanese companies, if they don't decide to do the same thing. |

| Since 2014 Mini One/Cooper Series III |
Mark0  (1646) | They also changed front lights, but yes I don't think it deserves new page. -- Last edit: 2018-04-26 13:32:32 |
2018-04-26 11:04 | |
| Since 2014 Mini One/Cooper Series III |
Rinspeed (8168) | You think that the new lifting for Mini needs a new page? Except the UK flag in the rear light, i don't see other thing. | 2018-04-26 00:42 | |
| Since 2015 Jaguar XE S [X760] |
Mark0 (1646) | That's exactly what I need, another SUV... |
2018-04-25 14:31 | |
| Since 2015 Jaguar XJ [X351] |
Mark0 (1646) | They are listed that way on automobile-catalog site, but that's mistake. R4 engines are called Ingenium and they are Jaguar Land Rover development. And V6 are AJ-V6. |
2018-04-25 14:31 | |
| Since 2015 Jaguar XJ [X351] |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Are the engine names on this car really correct? I can't find proof of the I-4 and V6 being from Mazda and Toyota. What's more, the 1MZ-FE engine from Toyota was in cars between 1993 and 2006, so I highly doubt that it would appear in a 2015+ top-of-the-line Jaguar. | 2018-04-25 09:20 | |
| Since 2015 Jaguar XE S [X760] |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Well, they're expecting the Lancer Evo to come back as a crossover, but I don't think that makes you happier. |
2018-04-25 09:12 | |
| Since 2015 Jaguar XE S [X760] |
Mark0 (1646) | Jaguar stopped production of V6 XE and XF. First they stopped producing V12 and V8 cars. Then they stopped prodcing Lancer Evolution. Every single manufacturer have SUV in their range. What's next? |

2018-04-23 20:02 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | That's true, maybe Years of Activity is better. I meant like you made this page to discuss changes to WebCarStory, there should also be a page to discuss anything related to racing cars and championships on WCS, because those comments are often posted on random pages. |
2018-04-23 19:56 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | what? i don't understand you don't prefer years of activity? because in some case there is some "hole" in the activity with a relaunch. -- Last edit: 2018-04-23 19:29:49 |

Desscythe17 (9358) | Maybe Founding Year and Final Year? Also, for future comments, maybe it's a good idea to make a page like this for motorsport? -- Last edit: 2018-04-23 18:36:15 |

Rinspeed (8168) | Instead of Founded, it was better to put Years of Activity (i don't know the real name), no? |

| 2003-2006 Toyota Estima (Estima L, Estima T) Mk.II |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Just like the Alphard, the Estima was also sold in two versions, depending on the dealership network. You can tell the Estima L and T apart by their front emblems (blue and red respectively) and their rear turn signals. Although the Estima T and L were around until 2006, they received identical taillights during the 2003 facelift. | 2018-04-22 23:01 | |

Rinspeed (8168) | Predecessor Successor, there isn't a lot of make with that. Subsidiaries and Divisions, it will be difficult. But Founded Founder and Headquarters ok |
2018-04-22 22:34 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | and i let the text for equipment or no? |
2018-04-22 22:32 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | I think that would work? Just a name and two or three pics is enough. I don't think I will often post interior pictures for such a thing. |
2018-04-22 20:53 | |

Mark0 (1646) | Founded Founder Headquarters location Maybe predecessor/successor (like successor for NSU is Audi) Also subsidiaries and divisions but i think this will be mess. |

| 2005-2008 Toyota Alphard (Alphard G, Alphard V) Mk.I |
Desscythe17 (9358) | The first generation Alphard was sold at two different Toyota dealership networks. One got the Alphard G, and the other got the Alphard V. They look slightly different, with G/V badges and somewhat different grilles, but not enough to warrant separate pages. For the second generation, the Netz dealership network which sold the Alphard V got the Vellfire as a replacement, and Toyopet's Alphard G was renamed Alphard. -- Last edit: 2018-04-22 14:22:11 |

| Ford (Australia) |
Desscythe17 (9358) | I think both Falcon and Commodore have finished production, so it they are still for sale, it's leftover stock. |
2018-04-20 23:15 | |
| Ford (Australia) |
Mark0 (1646) | Are the Falcon's still available to buy? I can't stand Holden vs Ford guys at Supercars comment section, it's pure cancer, but Holden supporters main thing is that Ford is racing car that you can't buy. |

Rinspeed (8168) | ok i will how i can do that |
2018-04-20 13:11 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Yes, I think that's a good example of what I mean. I don't think it's different enough from the normal Fiat 500 for a separate page, but it does deserve to be shown on the website. |
2018-04-20 11:58 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | Fiat 500S for example? |
2018-04-20 10:13 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Maybe I didn't explain it well enough, it's not for such small differences as alloys/rims or an exhaust or something. I was really thinking like bodykits, grilles, spoilers, and preferably a combination of these things. It has to be things you can see are different from a distance. Here is another example: webcarstory.com/voiture.php?id=28671 The Auster Euroforma at the bottom of the page has subtle, but noticeable differences, it doesn't have a different engine. -- Last edit: 2018-04-20 10:02:58 |

Rinspeed (8168) | it's easy for premium cars but not for others. Each one can have differents alloy wheels etc |
2018-04-20 09:10 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | Can you give an example of a car that would cause a problem? I think trim levels may have different names in a few countries, but I can't think of a car that has a certain look in one country, but not in the other. I think it could be a way of adding Audi S Line and such, which don't have any different engines, to the website without creating new pages. Of course it's also up to the contributor to decide if a trim level needs to have pictures. Not every single trim level is different enough to require it. |
2018-04-20 07:33 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | but for Europe it's a problem |
2018-04-20 00:35 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | With the brands I do which are divided for North America and Japan, that shouldn't be a problem. |
2018-04-20 00:30 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | the problem is that depend of the country for the trim. it could be very different. |
2018-04-19 21:57 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | I was thinking maybe small pics on the car's page of different versions with small visual changes that are not enough for a new page. For example: www.webcarstory.com/voiture.php?id=19611 As you can see, I put the Infiniti QX80 Limited in the special editions section, even though it was built for 2 years. I don't think the Limited needs a special page or anything, but it would be nice if some small pics of the Limited could be on the QX80 page, because it has different features, like clear taillights. -- Last edit: 2018-04-19 20:10:44 |

2018-04-19 16:20 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | Perhaps a different section... i don't know how to add it at the moment. I hadn't understand the part for the small pics at the end of you message. |
2018-04-19 16:19 | |
| Webcarstory |
Rinspeed (8168) | For models cars, i had also a lot and there is also the official pics from some makers( Ixo, Spark...). It will be easy i think to put it, i think i had always the old files. For the infos, if this is simple infos, yes we can. |
2018-04-19 16:17 | |

Desscythe17 (9358) | This car is listed twice, once as hatchback and once as upcoming car. | 2018-04-19 09:56 | |
| Webcarstory |
Mark0 (1646) | Return of model cars is not bad idea. Since I have 800 of them I could upload pic of every car  Also few years back I asked about adding some info about manufacturers like founding date, founder, HQ location and that. You said that it was difficult for some manufacturers but I think that's easy for big amount of them. |
2018-04-19 08:26 | |
| Webcarstory |
Desscythe17 (9358) | I personally won't do anything with model cars, so do as you like. I was wondering if the special editions could be changed a little bit? If you've seen the way I use that section, I usually add trim levels of cars that have a different grille, or maybe a bodykit, but nothing different when it comes to engines. Could the special editions section be changed to Limited Edition/Special Edition/Trim Differences? Otherwise, maybe add a new section that could be used for just extra (small) pics of the car? (Though it should resize pics automatically, like the pictures in the "last completed" bar) |
