Outlander remains a middler in SUV market Mitsubishi’s new Outlander is a handsome SUV, but remains a middler. Its performance falls in the middle of the crowded small to mid-sized sport-utility market. Little stands out. The tested “rally red” ute was the 3.0 GT S-AWC model, meaning it’s loaded with Mitsubishi’s more desirable V6 engine... Continue Reading →
Sonata loses styling pizazz as it attempts to blend into mid-size market Looks aren’t everything and price isn’t either, but on both, the new 2015 Hyundai Sonata falls short of its predecessor. The previous Sonata, the South Korean car maker’s mid-size sedan, featured chiseled good looks with a side accent line that gave it a... Continue Reading →
Subaru upgrades Legacy to take on Camry, Accord, Fusion Subaru strengthens its position in the mid-size market with an even more appealing Legacy sedan, but it retains a major advantage, all-wheel drive.

The Golf and Rabbit hatchbacks have been sold by VW since 1974, this latest iteration being the seventh generation. Toyota’s Corolla is one of the few competitors to be... Continue Reading →
Automodello’s Avanti offers sharp detail in resin Eyeballed my first Studebaker Avanti at my first Indianapolis 500 in 1962. The car was just about to be produced and was the “ceremonial” pace car for that year’s race, won by Roger Ward. A Studebaker Lark convertible was the “official” pace car. This car looked futuristic, and... Continue Reading →
Even in 1:18 scale Jaguar XKR-S is sleek, sexy When Ford first owned Jaguar, the storied maker of racy touring coupes and sedans, the British car maker was in a serious slump. Then along came Ian Callum and designs returned to near classic proportions, one being the sleek and sexy XKR-S coupe. By the way,... Continue Reading →
C300 helps Mercedes moves back toward top Mercedes-Benz has rejoined the top-tier of luxury automakers after a decade, or more, of struggling with design and execution while other luxo-makes were raising the bar.
