2014 Dodge Dart GT

Sporty, high-value Dart GT has power, but ride is too sporty My previous test of the compact Dodge Dart was near perfect. That was the Limited model, this metallic red beauty was the sportier GT. Blame it on age or our increasingly decrepit roads, but this one was harder on the derriere. Oh, I still like the Dart... Continue Reading →

2014 Subaru BRZ Limited

Fun, Fun, Fun till daddy takes the BRZ away!  Rarely have I driven a sports coupe that was more pure fun to drive and garnered more attention than the Subaru BRZ, and yet … The BRZ, a kissin’ cousin to Scion’s F-RS, is far from perfect. But it’s so much fun you might overlook most... Continue Reading →

2014 Infiniti Q50S 3.7 AWD

  Infiniti's unique styling gives new Q50 a muscular look Infiniti’s sedans continue to deliver unique styling that looks muscular and sporty, but with a style that sets them apart from other luxury sport sedans. My test car, the Q50S 3.7 AWD was a great looking metallic brown, with a hint of copper in it, so... Continue Reading →

2014 BMW 428i xDrive

BMW's new 428i coupe a really super car How great is the new BMW 4 Series Coupe? My notes showed no, nadda, zero negatives. I list price by default, because at $50 grand, more than a few of us won’t be able to afford it, and that’s a shame. Because this may be the best all-round... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Auto World 1971 Plymouth Road Runner

1971 Road Runner creates an eyeful of muscle car American Muscle came in various shapes and sizes in the late 1960s and early 1970s, before the first oil embargo put the nix on giant V-8s and the awesome grumble and power they delivered. Now Auto World creates a beautiful 1971 Plymouth Road Runner in Petty Blue... Continue Reading →

2015 Volvo V60 T5 Drive-E

Volvo nails the sports wagon with its new V60 First, there aren’t many true wagons anymore. Second, Volvo absolutely nails the V60, if you want your wagon to feel like a sports sedan. I could have sworn I was in an Audi or Mercedes and barely noticed this was a wagon thanks to this Volvo’s... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Phoenix Mint 1937 Studebaker Army Ambulance

  Phoenix Mint delivers high value 1937 Studebaker ambulance Not every new diecast vehicle is a muscle car or modern model. The Phoenix Mint reaches back to World War II for its vintage 1937 Studebaker Army Ambulance in 1:43 scale. Studebaker, an Indiana-based automaker that got its start by making wagons for farmers in the 1850s, was... Continue Reading →

2014 Fiat 500L Lounge

Fiat goes long with 500L (get it?) to connect with more buyers Credit Fiat for quickly deducing that its cute, but diminutive, 500 runabout simply won’t do for many U.S. families. The Italian automaker that owns Chrysler needed something that would cast a wider net when trying to land more customers on our shores. Voila! The... Continue Reading →

2014 Mitsubishi Mirage ES

Pokey Mitsubishi Mirage offers bare bones performance Last year when I drove the 109-horsepower Nissan Versa Note I thought I’d driven the slowest accelerating car made in the past 10 years, but that was before I’d driven the new Mitsubishi Mirage. This makes the pokey Versa Note feel frisky. Mirage is a pleasant looking little hatchback... Continue Reading →

2014 Chrysler Town & Country Limited

Town & Country minivan carries family, friends and stuff easily and efficiently Minivans are much maligned by the image conscious, or should we say, self-conscious car buyers. These folks let image stand in their way of buying the most family friendly vehicles on the market. This week’s Chrysler Town & Country Limited is at the... Continue Reading →
