Let’s say you’re a young middle-aged man who’s moving up in the world. You’re ready to graduate from the jalopy that got you through college and the first couple years of your career. You have a need for extra room to occasionally shuttle colleagues back and forth from business lunches to conference meetings, but you [...]

Audi has always been the underdog when it came to comparing their models to standard setters made by BMW and Mercedes-Benz. But over the last decade or so, the Ingolstadt brand has been making a huge statement for themselves. It’s one that tells the world that they’re not to be taken lightly and that other [...]

Never have I ever said anything spectacular about a Chevrolet product during my time on Earth thus far, halo cars Camaro and Corvette aside. And I thought this while playing the juvenile game with a couple of friends and trying to mack it with the girl sitting next to me – I guess this reassures [...]

Having expectations for a Toyota Camry is like expecting a bowl of pudding to rock your world…it just really doesn’t happen. That’s because when car enthusiasts think of the Toyota Camry, they immediately default to “appliance, white good,” but most of all: boring. However, Toyota Camrys of the past have charmed in their own individual [...]

As the television blew up about the arrival of hurricane Irene, I sat there, staring into space, reminiscing about my past car ownership experiences. So assuming that a fair amount of you will be pulling a hermit crab while the storm rolls through, I thought I’d provide some piece of mind from my own personal [...]

Being an owner of the 2011 BMW 135i with a 7-SPEED Double Clutch Transmission and an M-Sport package, it was the closet I could get to BMW catering to my dreams of an M version of the 1-Series… until now. After pleading from tons of fans and making a business case to the higher-ups at its [...]

I was never really a big fan of station wagons. I always thought that, while providing a very utilitarian purpose, they were very boring. Something that those pompous folks from Princeton, New Jersey would drive (seriously, it’s almost like Station Wagon World out there), or a family man’s alternative to the minivan. However, one day, [...]

When you translate Audi’s German slogan Vorsprung durch Technick , you’ll find out that means Progress Through Technology (the U.S. slogan is simply Truth in Engineering) and that is exactly what the new 2011 Audi A8 is all about. In fact, it may be too much engineering for many of us to comprehend, so I’m [...]

Now I would love to get into specific sales figures, numbers and an analyst’s analysis of the muscle car segment, but I don’t want to and you’re probably not looking here to read about all that, anyway. What I can tell you, off the top of my head, is that the Chevrolet Camaro is outselling [...]

Before I even sat inside the new 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, I thought to myself “(insert profanity here) Cadillac you have my attention.” Coming out of the Cadillac CTS Coupe and having driven the Cadillac CTS-V Sedan, my expectations of the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe were extremely high. So before we even get into everything here, [...]
