Honest car reviews both big and small
Spark's latest Le Mans racer a long-tailed French blend ... Separating Alpine from Renault is difficult as their histories are so entwined, as is that of Gordini, although fewer may recognize that name. But in the 1960s all three came together as Gordini-tuned Renault engines powered Alpine racers designed for the 24 Hours of Le... Continue Reading →
A time when wagons roamed the country ... Just in case you couldn't tell, I have a soft spot for the cars and Jeeps made by American Motors Corp. Maybe it was because my dad worked there for 17 years starting in 1963 and ending just after Chrysler bought AMC. Not sure why he did,... Continue Reading →
Electric hybrid adds cost, but boosts fuel efficiency, smooths power ... When Jeep launched the Grand Cherokee 30 years ago it was among the first luxury sport-utility vehicles on the market that still was affordable (not a Rover) and capable of off-roading. Jeep continues to make its Grand Cherokee as off-road worthy as anything, including... Continue Reading →
Built when Dodge was in total fun mode ... Bob Lutz is one of my all-time favorite car guys. He brought so much to the automotive world in fun cars like this week's spot, the Dodge Viper. Looking to create a modern-day Cobra, the first prototype was tested in January 1989 and went on sale... Continue Reading →
EV6 a great-looking, performing Electric car ... Superlatives sometimes ring hollow, and years of writing car reviews has proven to me it’s a lot harder to go gaga over a new vehicle and not sound like I’m on the car company payroll than it is to whine and moan about a vehicle that falls flat....

Eyeballing a rare molto bello Italian supercar ... Why should Paul have all the fun? Hey, I spot cars too, like this 2005 Lambo Murcielago Roadster I spied at the Chicago Mecum Auction in October. This Italian hot rod was parked out back of the exhibition and auction hall where various employees could keep an... Continue Reading →
A '60s era muscle car gets a second chance ... So which side of the convo are you on? Should a car be restored to factory specs or brought back to life as a restomod? I can go either way. This week's car spot, a 1969 Dodge Charger, is a Resto Mod. I found this... Continue Reading →
First Hyundai electric is charged with looks, performance .... Rarely does someone follow me into a parking lot to ask about the vehicle I’m test driving, but electric cars are different. Still new in the public’s consciousness, some are simply so visually striking that they raise even more questions than range, charge time, and cost.... Continue Reading →
Better than factory and more fun ... The Chevy Camaro was second on the scene in the pony car era debuting on Sept. 29, 1966, for the 1967 model year a bit after the Ford Mustang. Four distinct generations of the Camaro have been developed before production ended for the first time in 2002. Chevy... Continue Reading →
Tip-top Tundra a giant luxury pickup with a touch of hybrid help ... By definition Toyota can’t top its latest Tundra, dubbed the Capstone CrewMax, and it certainly would be difficult.
