Nui nā wehewehe ʻana o nā pena kaʻa hou i kaulana i nā makahiki i hala iho nei, akā ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi o lākou ke hopu piha i ke ʻano o ka "ʻike i ka nānā".
He mau leo lepo palupalu nā aka - hina, ʻeleʻele, ʻeleʻele, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.Ma Los Angeles i kaʻa kaʻa, ua hele ka ʻano mai ka laha ʻole a kokoke i nā wahi āpau i hoʻokahi makahiki.Hāʻawi nā hui e like me Porsche, Jeep, Nissan a me Hyundai i kēia manawa i ka pena.
Wahi a ka mea hana kaʻa, ʻo nā waihoʻoluʻu lepo e hōʻike i ke ʻano o ka huakaʻi - ʻoiai he aihue.No kekahi poʻe loea hoʻolālā, hōʻike ke kala i ka lokahi me ke ʻano.I nā mea nānā ʻē aʻe, he manaʻo paramilitary ko lākou e hōʻike ana i ka manaʻo nui i nā mea āpau.Ua ʻike ka poʻe hoʻohewa kaʻa iā lākou ma ke ʻano he hōʻike o nā makemake hakakā o nā mea hoʻokele e kū i waho a kūpono hoʻi.
“ʻIke wau i kēia kala ʻoluʻolu;Manaʻo wau he ʻoluʻolu loa ke kala," wahi a Tara Subkoff, he mea pena kiʻi a me ka mea hana keaka i ʻike ʻia no kāna hana, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo The Last Days of Disco, nāna i pena i ka Porsche Panamera i kahi hina hina i kapa ʻia ʻo chalk."Ke kiʻekiʻe nei ka nui o nā kaʻa, a ua ulu maoli ʻo ia i ka astronomically i nā mahina i hala aku nei - a aneane hiki ʻole ke ʻae ʻia - hiki ke kōkua ʻia ka ʻulaʻula a me ka ʻalani."
Makemake ʻoe i kēlā nānā haʻahaʻa?E lilo ana iā ʻoe.I kekahi manawa aloha.ʻO nā kala pena i hāʻawi nui ʻia no nā kaʻa haʻuki a me nā SUV maʻamau ke kumu kūʻai keu.I kekahi mau hihia, he mau koho wale nō kēia e hiki ke hoʻohui i nā haneli kālā i ke kumukūʻai o ke kaʻa.ʻO nā manawa ʻē aʻe, kūʻai aku lākou no ka ʻoi aku o $10,000 a ua hoʻolālā ʻia no nā kaʻa kūikawā e like me nā SUV kaumaha a i ʻole nā mea noho ʻelua.
"Makemake ka poʻe e hoʻomaikaʻi i nā pae ʻoki a uku hou aku no kēia mau kala no ka mea ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kekahi mau kaʻa i loko o [lākou]," wahi a Ivan Drury o Edmunds, kahi lawelawe ʻike automotive, me ka ʻike ʻana e hāʻawi pōkole ʻia nā kala.ka manaʻo wikiwiki no nā mea kūʻai aku."Ua like ia, 'E, inā makemake ʻoe, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi e kiʻi iā ia i kēia manawa no ka mea ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻike hou iā ia i kēia kumu hoʻohālike.'
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Audi i ke au i ka makahiki 2013 i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai ʻo ia ma Nardo Gray ma kāna RS 7, he coupe ʻehā-puka ikaika me kahi mīkini māhoe-turbo V-8 e hana ana ma luna o 550 horsepower.ʻO ia ka "ʻeleʻele paʻa mua ma ka mākeke," wahi a Mark Danke, ka luna hoʻomalu o ka lehulehu no Audi o ʻAmelika, e pili ana i ka pena ʻeleʻele.I kekahi mau makahiki ma hope mai, hāʻawi ka hui i kēia kala no nā hiʻohiʻona RS kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe.
"ʻO Audi ke alakaʻi i kēlā manawa," wahi a Danke."Ke ulu nui nei nā kala paʻa i kēia manawa."
ʻOiai ua hāʻawi ʻia kēia mau ʻulaʻula e nā mea hana kaʻa no nā makahiki he ʻumi, ua ʻike ʻia ko lākou kaulana i ka ʻike ʻole ʻia e ka media.ʻO kekahi mau pou koʻikoʻi e pili ana i ka hoʻololi ʻana i ke ʻano i nā makahiki i hala iho nei he ʻatikala ma ka pūnaewele ʻo Capital One—ʻae, he panakō—a me kahi ʻatikala ma Blackbird Spyplane, kahi nūhou kaulana i kākau ʻia e Jonah Weiner lāua ʻo Erin Wylie.He ʻatikala ma Weiner's 2022 newsletter ma nā pāpale āpau e nīnau ikaika i ka nīnau: he aha ka hewa o kēlā mau A**WHIPS āpau e like me PUTTY?
ʻO nā kaʻa i pena ʻia i kēia mau kala kala ʻole "e hōʻike i ka mālamalama liʻiliʻi ma mua o kā mākou ʻike ʻana i nā makahiki i hala aku nei, no laila ʻoi aku ka nui o ka ʻike maka ma mua o ko lākou mau hoa kiʻiʻoniʻoni," wahi a Weiner."Ua nāwaliwali nā hopena, akā ʻike ʻole ʻia."
Ua ʻike ʻoe i nā papa hoʻolaha e hāʻawi ana i $6.95, $6.99, a me $7.05 hoʻi i ke galani o ka ʻaila hoʻokele maʻamau.Akā ʻo wai ke kūʻai aku a no ke aha?
Ke hoʻokele nei ma Los Angeles, ʻike maopopo ʻia ke kaulana nei kēia mau leo honua.Ma kekahi ʻauinalā i hala iho nei, ua hoʻokū ʻia ka Porsche o Subkoff ma Larchmont Boulevard, he mau kapuaʻi wale nō mai kahi Jeep Wrangler i pena ʻia me ka ʻulaʻula māmā i kapa ʻia ʻo Gobi (ke kumu kūʻai o ka pena palena palena he $495, ʻaʻole kūʻai hou ke kaʻa).Akā ʻo nā helu e wehewehe ana i ka kūleʻa o kēia mau hue he paʻakikī ke loaʻa mai, ʻo kekahi hapa no ka mea he liʻiliʻi loa nā kikoʻī o ka ʻikepili kala pena i loaʻa.Eia kekahi, ua hōʻole kekahi mau mea hana kaʻa e hōʻike i nā helu.
ʻO kahi ala e ana i ka holomua ʻo ia ka ʻike ʻana i ka wikiwiki o nā kaʻa i kūʻai ʻia ma kahi kala.Ma ka hihia o ke kaʻa ʻehā ʻo Hyundai Santa Cruz i 2021, ʻelua mau leo ʻeleʻele - pōhaku uliuli a me sage hina - ʻo ia ka mea kūʻai maikaʻi loa o nā kala ʻeono i hāʻawi ʻia e Hyundai no ke kaʻa, wahi a Derek Joyce.lunamakaainana o Hyundai Motor North America.
Hōʻoia ka ʻikepili i loaʻa i kahi ʻoiaʻiʻo e pili ana i nā kala kaʻa: mau ka ʻono ʻAmelika.ʻO nā kaʻa i pena ʻia i nā aka keʻokeʻo, hina, ʻeleʻele a me ke kālā he 75 pakeneka o nā kūʻai kaʻa hou ma US i ka makahiki i hala, wahi a Edmunds.
No laila pehea ʻoe e lawe ai i ka pōʻino me ke kala o kāu kaʻa inā ʻaʻole ʻoe he mea hoʻokalakupua?Pono ʻoe e uku hou aku e nalowale i ka uila.
E nīnau i nā mea hana kaʻa, nā mea hoʻolālā, a me nā loea kala e pili ana i ke kumu o ke au pena kala ʻole, a e hoʻopiha ʻia ʻoe i nā manaʻo manaʻo.
Manaʻo ʻo Drury, ka luna o ka noiʻi ma Edmunds, ʻo ke ʻano o ka leo honua ke kumu i ka subculture hoʻolohe kaʻa.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia i ka hopena o nā makahiki 1990 a me nā makahiki 2000, ua uhi ka poʻe hoihoi kaʻa i kahi kaʻa me kahi primer - loaʻa i ke keʻokeʻo, hina, a ʻeleʻele paha - ʻoiai lākou i hoʻohui i nā pahu kino a me nā mea ʻē aʻe i waho o kā lākou kaʻa, a laila kali.a hiki i ka pau ʻana o nā hoʻololi ʻana, pau ka pena.Makemake kekahi poʻe i kēia ʻano.
ʻO kēia mau kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa ʻeleʻele a me he mea lā ua hoʻāla i ka makemake no nā kaʻa i kapa ʻia "pepehi" i pena ʻia i ka ʻeleʻele.Hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia kēia hiʻohiʻona ma ke kau ʻana i kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni pale ma ke kaʻa ma ke kino holoʻokoʻa - kahi ʻano ʻē aʻe i ulu i nā makahiki he ʻumi i hala.
He poʻe pā ka Beverly Hills Auto Club a me ka mea nona ka hui ʻo Alex Manos, akā ua ʻōlelo ka hoʻopiʻi e kūʻai aku ana ka mea kūʻai aku i nā kaʻa me ka pōʻino ʻike ʻole, nā ʻāpana kīnā a i ʻole nā pilikia ʻē aʻe.
ʻO kēia mau quirks, e like me Drewry, hiki ke "hoʻomaopopo i nā mea hana kaʻa ʻaʻole kūlike ka pena premium i ka pena ʻālohilohi loa."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Audi's Danke ua hānau ʻia ʻo Nardo Gray ma muli o ka makemake i kahi kala kūikawā no ka lineup RS kiʻekiʻe o ka hui.
"Pono ke kala e hoʻokūpaʻa i ke ʻano haʻuki o ke kaʻa, e hoʻoikaika ana i kāna ʻano hilinaʻi ma ke alanui, akā i ka manawa like e noho maʻemaʻe," wahi āna.
Ua hoʻolālā ʻia ko Hyundai's sapphire and sage gray e Erin Kim, Creative Manager ma Hyundai Design North America.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua hoʻoikaika ʻia ʻo ia e ke ʻano, he ʻoiaʻiʻo loa ia i kahi honua e hakakā nei me ka maʻi maʻi COVID-19.ʻOi aku ka nui o ka poʻe i ka "ʻoliʻoli i ke ʻano," wahi āna.
ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole makemake wale nā mea kūʻai aku i kā lākou mau kaʻa e nānā maikaʻi i loko o kahi canyon ululāʻau, akā makemake pū kekahi e hōʻike i ko lākou mālama ʻana i kahi canyon ulu lāʻau.ʻO Leatrice Eisman, Luna Hoʻokele o ka Pantone Color Institute, ʻike i ke ʻano o nā leo i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻike o nā mea kūʻai aku i ke kaiapuni.
"Ke ʻike nei mākou i ka neʻe ʻana o ka nohona / politika e pane ana i kēia pilikia kaiapuni a me ka huki ʻana i ka manaʻo i ka hōʻemi ʻana i nā ʻano hana hana a me ka neʻe ʻana i nā ala i ʻike ʻia he ʻoiaʻiʻo a kūlohelohe," wahi āna.ʻO nā kala "kōkua e hōʻike i kēlā kumu."
He manaʻo koʻikoʻi hoʻi ka Nature no Nissan no ka mea ua loaʻa kā lākou mau kaʻa i nā kala alumini ʻo Boulder Grey, Baja Storm a me Tactical Green.Akā, aia kekahi ʻano.
“ʻAʻole lepo.ʻO ka ʻenehana kiʻekiʻe honua," wehewehe ʻo Moira Hill, ka mea hoʻolālā kala a me ka mea hoʻolālā ʻoki ma Nissan Design America, e hoʻopaʻa ana i ke kala o ke kaʻa i nā mea ʻenehana e hiki ai i ka mea mākaʻikaʻi ke hoʻokomo i kāna 4x4 i ka huakaʻi mauna hopena pule.No ka laʻana, inā ʻoe e hoʻopaʻa nei i kahi noho hoʻomoana kalapona he $500, no ke aha ʻoe e makemake ʻole ai e like kāu kaʻa?
ʻAʻole wale ia e pili ana i ka hoʻolālā ʻana i kahi manaʻo hoʻokalakupua.No ka laʻana, hoʻokumu ka pena Boulder hina i kahi manaʻo pilikino ke hoʻohana ʻia i kahi kaʻa haʻuki Nissan Z, wahi a Hill."He mea haʻahaʻa ia, akā ʻaʻole ʻikeʻike," wahi āna.
Hōʻike ʻia kēia mau kala ma nā kaʻa ma lalo o $30,000 e like me Nissan Kicks a me Hyundai Santa Cruz, e hōʻike ana i ka kaulana o nā leo honua haʻahaʻa.ʻO kahi kala i loaʻa wale ma nā kaʻa ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi - ua loaʻa ke kumu kūʻai kumu o ka RS 7 ma kahi o $105,000 i ka wā i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ai ma Nardo Grey i ka makahiki 2013 - ua loaʻa i kēia manawa ma nā kaʻa kūʻai aku.ʻAʻole i kāhāhā ka druid.
"Ua like ia me ka hapa nui o nā mea: komo lākou i ka ʻoihana," wahi āna."Inā ʻo ia ka hana, palekana, a i ʻole infotainment, inā lōʻihi ka loaʻa ʻana, e hiki mai ana."
ʻAʻole mālama paha ka poʻe kūʻai kaʻa i ke kumu o kēia mau kala.ʻO ka hapa nui o ka poʻe i nīnauele ʻia no kēia hōʻike, ua ʻōlelo lākou ua kūʻai lākou i kēia mau kaʻa manuahi no ka mea makemake lākou i ko lākou helehelena.
ʻO ka mea ʻohi kaʻa ʻo Spike Feresten, ka mea hoʻokipa o Spike's Car Radio podcast, nona ʻelua mau hiʻohiʻona Porsche kaumaha - ka 911 GT2 RS a me 911 GT3 - pena ʻia i ka paʻakai, a ua wehe ka hui i kahi kala hou.Kapa ʻo Feresten i kāna Chalk "haʻahaʻa akā nani."
"Manaʻo wau e ʻike ana nā kānaka i kēia no ka mea ke hana nei lākou i kahi ala liʻiliʻi i mua e pili ana i ka pilikia o ke koho ʻana i kahi kala kaʻa," wahi āna."Ua ʻike lākou aia lākou i loko o ka ʻEhā Nui - ʻeleʻele, hina, keʻokeʻo a i ʻole kālā - a makemake lākou e hoʻāʻo a hoʻāla iki.No laila ua hele lākou i kahi wahi liʻiliʻi iā Mel.
No laila ke kakali nei ʻo Feresten i kāna Porsche e hiki mai ana i ka pena kala ʻole: ʻo ka 718 Cayman GT4 RS ma Oslo Blue.ʻO kēia ke kala kaulana i hoʻohana ʻia e Porsche ma kā lākou mau hiʻohiʻona kaulana 356 i nā makahiki 1960 mua.Wahi a Feresten, loaʻa ka malu ma o ka papahana Paint to Sample.Hoʻomaka ka waihoʻoluʻu i ʻae ʻia ma kahi o $11,000 a kūʻai aku nā aka maʻamau ma kahi o $23,000 a piʻi.
No Subkoff, makemake ʻo ia i ke kala o kāna Porsche (“He nani loa”) akā makemake ʻole i ke kaʻa ponoʻī (“ʻAʻole wau ʻo ia”).Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e hoʻolālā ana e kāpae i ka Panamera a ke manaʻo nei e hoʻololi iā ia me ka Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid.
He mea hoʻolaha ʻoihana ʻo Daniel Miller no ka Los Angeles Times, e hana ana i ka noiʻi, hiʻohiʻona a me nā hōʻike papahana.He kamaʻāina ʻo Los Angeles, ua puka ʻo ia mai UCLA a hui pū me nā limahana ma 2013.
