The Japanese at Honda don’t really make exciting cars any more, they do however manage to come up with reliable, pleasant ones though. Perhaps the most pleasant of them all is the good old Honda CR-V. And that’s the problem, the CR-V is now getting close to the same age as the average Honda driver.
Ah, long gone are the days when Alfa Romeo would tear up race tracks and make legends out of racing drivers. Nowadays we only hear about the company’s possible sale or fuel economy. You can’t blame Fiat, or anybody else for that matter, but it is a sad moment. The latest we have from Alfa
Chrysler, the one out of the Detroits’ Big Three that I like least has really rolled up its sleeves and set to work. Their labors latest fruit is a new face for the Jeep Compass. In readying itself for 2011 the Jeep Compass became more of a Grand Cherokee.
The Germans just handed over the first bit of news on the 2011 Volkswagen Eos since the Exclusive package was announced. Volkswagen have told us the what the price tag on a 2011 Eos will look like. Sadly, that price tag is for the United Kingdom only at the moment.

Just by taking a look at the difference between the previous generation of the Corsa and the current one. That being said though, a raft of images recently released indicate a change of course.
For an automotive giant who allegedly didn’t have any products in the pipeline for the next few years Chrysler sure does seem to make much of an effort about changing that.

Nissan didn’t want to displease their French connection so they did have a showing of the facelifted version of the Nissan GT-R at the Paris Motor Show but it wasn’t a full release. That full release of the 2012 Nissan GT-R will take place over in America at the upcoming Los Angeles Motor Show.
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

You may remember that about a couple of months ago VW presented us with a facelifted variant of their flagship, the 2011 Phaeton.
