Just Thinking: Who dreams about exotic cars anymore? Don't get me wrong. I love exotic cars. But I also want the experience of performance in my everyday life. Enthusiasts want exceptional design and engineering as a daily driver. That puts GM in a great position to go higher with cars like the Cadillac Celestiq and Chevrolet Corvette and leverage their engineering and design to bring luxury and performance to a greater number of people. Seems like a good strategy to me.

Chevy Blazer: "The 2027 Chevy Blazer will be more or less a transitional model year. Bigger changes are expected once production moves to Tennessee. The 2028 model year will likely bring either a next-generation redesign or a significant mid-cycle refresh." Fingers crossed for a more inspired design.

The ad was shot in Pérez’s hometown of Guadalajara, Mexico, as part of the vehicle’s launch campaign in that market. The personalized plates "F1CP11" would probably be F1 Checo Pérez #11 (and also Cadillac is the 11th Team). F1 drivers keep their numbers across teams and seasons, making it part of their personal brand.

The Ford Mustang Mach-e is getting more interesting to me. It’s interesting because it seems Chevrolet is not going for the performance crossover space and rumors about a Corvette crossover seem dead. I think now is the time for Ford to take advantage of the vacuum and the product they already have and own the performance crossover coupe segment. More thoughts here:

The Fujifilm X-M5 announced today (10/14) has a flip out screen. This camera caters to videographers who love v-logging and vertical orientation shooting. My opinion: For photography, stick with the X100VI.

10/11/2024

Fujifilm X-M5 (coming Oct. 14) The lightest model in the current X series. Equipped with advanced features for both stills and video. Enjoy shooting every day with ease. Sounds interesting, but they're making it a hybrid camera. This is just a bad idea that keeps going.
