2009 Ford Flex Review 2008-06-12 18:57:00 When it comes to family-hauling vehicular solutions, we're at the end of the tunnel. In the face of $5 a gallon gas, SUV and minivan sales have vaporized. The mushroom cloud of market crash is overhead. One need only look at the discrepancy between SUV/CUV and small car sales to realize we're in the dystopic, post-apocalyptic era– as far as Detroit's concerned. While Ford rushes its Fiesta c
2008 Porsche Cayenne Review 2008-06-12 18:56:00 "The Porsche
Cayenne is a deeply misunderstood machine," RF told me before my test drive. "It's one of the world's fastest off-roaders, not a house-broken truck." Huh? Why would a world famous sports car maker (if not THE world famous sports car maker) tempt infamy by making a kick-ass mud plugger instead of a FX-style sports-car-on-stilts? The answer, I'm told, lies deep in Porsche's DNA. In
2008 Porsche Cayenne Review 2008-06-12 18:56:00 Kia is one of the only car brands sold in America that's never built an enthusiast's car. Sensible Swedish Saab offered the 900. Before their core clientele started losing their pulse, Buick ran the Grand National. Saturn looked to the Sky for salvation. GMC got caught up in a Typhoon. Even Hyundai has the Tiburon circling its enthusiast oriented customers. Kia? Nothing but cheap. Or… maybe Read more:Porsche
2009 Lincoln MKS Review 2008-06-12 18:54:00 Ford's "premium" car lineup is engaged in a deadly game of last brand standing. Now that Jaguar, Range Rover and Aston Martin are casualities of war (i.e. someone else's problem), it's down to Volvo and Lincoln
. Official denials aside, Volvo's the next to go. Lincoln must carry that weight (a long time). And so we meet the front wheel-drive-based Lincoln MKS, Ford's first post-Carmageddon (kar
2009 Ford Escape Hybrid Review 2008-06-12 18:52:00 The Ford Escape
was the world's first hybrid SUV. Contrary to popular belief, The Blue Oval's gas - electric trucklette does NOT use Toyota's Synergy Drive. FoMoCo's hybrid cute ute shares some patents with ToMoCo, and that's it. And there's another idea floating around: Ford is artificially restricting supplies to limit their loss-per-vehicle. True dat. Until and unless Ford can find a way to Read more:Hybrid
2008 Dacia Logan MCV 1.5 dCi Review 2008-06-12 18:51:00 I love European "people's" cars. The Renault R4, the Fiat Uno and Punto, Peugeots 205 to 207, the early Golfs– they were all affordable and fun to drive with more character than Marcello Mastroianni. By the same token, I hate what Lee Iacocca called PODS. Lido was referring to Chryslers, but plenty of manufacturers have built cars for Poor Old Dumb Shits. PODS-mobiles are often Russian; Lada lea Read more:Logan
2008 Lexus LS600hL Review - Take Two 2008-06-12 18:50:00 I disagree with every review of the Lexus
LS600hL ever written. Categorically. To a man, my colleagues misinterpret the most expensive Lexus as a misguided planet-saver that doesn't deliver enough mpg to justify its sky-high price tag. I view the ultimate hybrid as better driving through science. In fact, despite the dorky "hybrid" badges uglifying the LS600hL's flanks, Lexus didn't build this
2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Review 2008-06-12 18:48:00 Anyone who’s driven one of the first nine iterations of the MitsubishiLancerEvolution
(a.k.a. Evo) approaches the tenth fully expecting chest-flattening acceleration and spleen-rupturing cornering. Obviously, the Evo X’s engine and chassis are bound (and determined) to continue the model’s budget supercar-killer tradition. But there’s another less welcome Evo tradition: denture destr Read more:Mitsubishi Lancer

2008 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Review 2008-06-12 18:45:00 With all this media talk of a gas electric plug-in hybrid clean diesel hydrogen fuel cell future, someone forgot to tell Mercedes
that the horsepower war is over. Sure, the new BMW M3 has a 414hp V8, trumped by the Audi RS4’s 420hp eight pot. But who gives a shit? The new automotive arms race: building and selling enough small, high-mileage, low-profit vehicles that various government agencies w
Porsche RUF CTR3 - The Third Generation CTR 2008-06-15 09:37:00 CTR3 is the third generation model of the CTR and it is tuned by RUF, the famous German tuning house. The record-setting 700 horsepower energy output and an awesome 235mph speed entitle the CTR3 to be called as the fastest Porsche
on offer. The 3.8-liter flat-6 engine of the new Porsche is powered with a twin-turbo and has a displacement of 229 cu in. The power 700bhp is available at 7000rpm and Read more:Generation
Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG Estate 2008 Supercar 2008-06-15 09:32:00 Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG Estate
comes with 6.3 liter V8 engine, 457 hp @ 6800 rpm, 443 lb-ft torque, which can accelerate 0-62 mph in 4.6 seconds. Power is transferred by the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC. Equipped with AMG steering wheel gearshift paddles and the three driving modes “C”, “S” and “M”, the seven-speed automatic transmission delivers a decidedly sporty or comfort-focused r Read more:Mercedes
Subaru Impreza 2008-06-15 09:31:00 SubaruImpreza
, the elegant model from Subaru, has its debut at the New York International Auto Show, and the product will be available in the market soon this summer. The important modifications of the new model include the chic style and interior design along with additional space and comfort to ensure a smooth driving environment. The Subaru is provided with the Symmetrical All –W Read more:Subaru Impreza
Ford Focus RS 2008-06-15 09:29:00 Hot-hatchbacks don't get much hotter than this. Ford's 212bhp Focus
may have been a long time in gestation, but marks the welcome return of the RS (Rallye Sport) brand, a moniker which first appeared in 1970 on an Escort.There have been a succession of RS Fords since then, most of which came with a reputation that the RS will have to try hard to live up to.Just as well, then that the Focus RS come Read more:Ford Focus
A new Ford super-truck is coming this fall 2008-06-15 09:25:00 2004 SVT Lightning ConceptIt's been several years since Ford last offered a Lightning version of its F-150 pickup truck but it looks like it will soon strike again. In spite of plummeting sales of big trucks, a high-performance variant of the new 2009 F-150 will launch later this fall, likely at either SEMA or the Los Angeles Auto Show. Ford showed a concept version of an SVT F-150 in 2004 that ne
