I have to say one thing, if there’s any brand that can sell cars without having a proud badge on them it’s VW. With such a performance with the VW roundel and, more recently, with the Skoda roundel can you imagine what they can do with a posh badge?
When Ford came up with the latest iteration of the Mustang things pretty much went their way. Most of the success the 2011 Ford Mustang had was related to the revival of the 5.0 liter V8 engine but, surprisingly, the smaller 3.7 liter V6 engine has been a bit of a surprise in terms of
Probably aware of how far behind they are behind the competition, Chrysler is hitting the market hard with new products. The latest car they took through this procedure is the 2011 Dodge Avenger. While the exterior looks department don’t do it much justice the substance of what makes the 2011 Dodge Avenger completely differs from
When you are a Chrysler fan and you find that they’re bringing a Fiat to SEMA you can’t help but be disappointed. Of course, Chrysler is aware of such a situation so they’re also going to be bringing some interesting stuff over to the infamous Las Vegas tuning show.
As part of the 2011 revival of the Dodge Challenger, Chrysler announced the fact that it will be available with an updated V6 engine. The new V6 is actually the 3.6 liter Pentastar V6 engine that’s the pride of Chrysler’s 2010 and beyond revolution.
After updating their 2011 Touareg with the addition of an Exclusive package the Germans over at Volkswagen decided to apply pretty much the same rules to their 2011 Eos Coupe Cabriolet. Unlike the new Volkswagen Touareg the 2011 Volkswagen Eos is not that much more than a facelift of the older version. That shouldn’t put
After posting news of a pretty important recall to come from Chrysler the NHTSA has yet more information to unsettle drivers. According to the announcement made by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration this recall affects a total of nearly 10.000 vehicles produced by Swedish automaker Volvo.
The current version of the Mazda 2, the 2010 model year has been around with us for quite a few years now and while it has what it takes in just about every segment it fails to provide one relatively important thing. That’s economy. The Mazda 2 has some decent economy figures but none of
Knowing their Passat is a volume car and considering the great quality feel it features in models of late it’s no wonder that the Germans at Volkswagen decided to allow people to place orders already. The first market open to orders will be the British one and that’s ok, except ordering usually requires something extra.
It seems that a general consensus about Ford’s latest pickup truck lineup having the best powerplants on the market is getting early confirmation. Actually it’s not that early of a confirmation as the car has been available to the media for quite a while now but either way, the EPA’s test results have been eagerly
While the 2011 Nissan Murano has been around as a facelifted version since the summer but since it’s only now that it’s going to be available in the US the Japanese have been kind enough to release the price list you might encounter in a showroom. For the sake of argument the list only features
After going through a lot of teasers, perhaps more than this sort of segment could deem required, Chrysler finally unveiled their new 2011 sedan, the 200. On first impressions, just as the teaser shots suggested it features a pretty conservative design, a nice overall look that boasts a few modern and bold touches.
It seems that the little city car the coolest brand in the UK was showcasing at this spring’s Geneva Motor Show will hit the production line soon. Back at the infamous motor show this was nothing more than a Toyota IQ based luxury supermini done by Aston Martin as an attempt to keep in tune
Do you know why people like tuning companies? It’s because when manufacturers are giving you cars with new engines but hardly more power due to emissions and fuel economy standards, they come to the rescue and give you the cars “unplugged” version. There’s that reason, because I like thinking about and then there’s a more
That’s what seems to be happening as reports from Buick show not problems with selling cars but rather dealers stocking up. The problem isn’t with dealers trying to build up a stock but rather with them keeping a car ready for testing. They sell these things like hot cakes.
The Cadillac CTS-V is an old friend, it’s the sedan that brought some performance pride to the Americans. It seems that after a bit of hitting the Germans under the belt Cadillac want to deliver a final blow with an estate version of the CTS-V and that’s admirable. Even so, there’s a cost to all
After quite a bit of internet chatter, spyshots being leaked and all the traditional stuff manufacturers tease us with we finally get or eyes on the 2011 Dodge Charger. Basically what I think this version of the Charger is can be summed up in a second as a 2010 Dodge Charger with an old school
Trust me, this isn’t a joke on how Maserati’s cars sell sex and how they may be having “trouble” in that section. As a matter of fact this is real and it’s gotten me all jumped up (don’t read into that). According to some of the latest reports the 2014 Maserati Quattroporte may actually be
The Ford Mustang is probably the definition of popular as far as pony cars are concerned and if that’s the case for the stock car can you imagine what the tuning scene can come up with. Roush is an old name in the Ford history and it’s a success name at that as well. The
The people over at luxury British manufacturer, Bentley, have announced that they will be slowly moving away from its 18 month product cycle. Why is that? Well mostly because according to a recent study they’ve conducted among their customers revealed that owners of Bentley products tend to drive their sports cars for an average of
