2012 Volkswagen Tiguan SE 4Motion

Volkswagen Tiguan: Putting the Sport into Sport-Ute Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed driving Volkswagen’s restyled Tiguan, a small sport utility with the emphasis on sport. The silver test ute was the mid-level SE with 4Motion, a giant sunroof and a navigation system, so it started at a very un-small price tag of $32,480. Thing... Continue Reading →

Promo model: 1958 Pontiac Bonneville

I always like Pontiacs, maybe because one of my grandfathers owned a dealership. Even though I was just a kid, I remember going to visit and there was always something new in the driveway. This model though comes from my wires side of the family as they bought one in 1958 and were given the... Continue Reading →

Cool Cars at Road America

Hey Paul Daniel here. I help Mark with the site, do videos and write for the section of promo models. Like Mark, I'm a huge car geek! I was at Road American this past weekend, just about my most favorite place, with my wife and daughter, taking in some of the racing. Beyond the cool race... Continue Reading →

Two Extremes!!

What could better bookend the car world than a Rolls Royce and the Smart car? I was about to drive this red Smart for 2 model home a couple years ago from a media event at Wisconsin's gorgeous Road America racetrack. It was a rainy day and the Rolls Royce that had been sitting in... Continue Reading →

2012 Audi A6

2012 Audi A6: Defining the luxury sedan The new 2012 Audi A6 is just about everything a luxury sport sedan should be. It’s fast, it’s nimble, it’s stylish inside and out and it’s loaded with luxury amenities. Any quibbles I have are minor. First, Audi continues its string of well styled cars that offer character...

2012 Infiniti M56X

Infiniti M56X: Infiniti’s new M56X sedan is the rich man’s Park Avenue, full of luxury and comfortable ride, but also an absolute blast to drive. Certainly it’s more spirited than many large luxury sedans, while looking as tame as, well, a Park Avenue. Yet there’s a growling 5.6-liter V8 under its hood that is just... Continue Reading →

2012 GMC Terrain

2012 GMC Terrain When I drove a GMC Terrain a couple years back I was impressed by its fit, finish and good value in the small sport-ute or crossover market. Not much has changed in a couple years and mostly that’s good. Terrain slots in above the many smaller SUVs and crossovers, but isn’t big... Continue Reading →

Promo model: 1960 AMC Unibody

Sometimes when I mention my affection for American Motors and Ramblers I get a chuckles. "That's the company that made the Pacer and the Gremlin, right?" they say. Well.....yes but those were just a few of the innovations AMC had in it's history. Actually AMC had a massive impact on the auto industry in general.... Continue Reading →

Promo models: AMC AMX’s

This is by far my most favorite car AMC ever made. If I had the cash, and good ones go for about 25 grand, I would go out and get one. Looks and power in a small package. I did own one, once, and it was a disaster for me. Hellbent on getting one of... Continue Reading →

Promo models: AMC Marlin

Have you ever wondered why a certain car didn't meet expectations and became just a footnote? Such is the case for American Motors's Marlin. This "Man Size Fastback" as AMC called it in ads was not the original concept.  Designed by AMC's famous designer Dick Teague chose the Rambler American chassis (106 inches) and created...
