Honest car reviews both big and small
A stylish 1:18 scale Series 62 with opening hood, trunk, doors ... Cadillac was near the top of the U.S. automotive world as far as a reputation for luxury coupled with performance prior to World War II. Oh sure, there was Packard too, but the Series 62 Caddy was king of the heap. And of... Continue Reading →
1:18 scale Catalina a long, lean hot rod ... Ah, the Catalina. The name alone seemed exotic and somehow a bit sexy in the 1960s. But that was during a time when cars had names that stirred imaginations and were not just known by a collection of numbers or letters. Pontiac was rife with great... Continue Reading →
New Kona ups the power, yet remains cute high-value crossover ... Roughly three years had passed since I last tested Hyundai’s small crossover, the Kona. I’d almost forgotten just how much fun it is. That can’t be said for all the little crossovers, plus Kona offers AWD and remains friendly to your bank account. For... Continue Reading →
Mid-engine Vette and boxy 1963 Chevy II wagon are high-value DC Two Chevys couldn’t be much more different than the mid-engine 2020 Corvette and the 1963 Chevy II Nova Wagon, but I love them both. Different reasons of course, but here’s their appeal. First, the new Corvette will be an icon for years, just like... Continue Reading →
Sport luxury sedan goodness; if it ain't broke, don't fix it ... Sorry if this sounds like a broken record (remember those?), but Lexus refuses to mess with success when it comes to its IS 350 sports sedan. For instance, Lexus sticks with its trusted 3.5-liter V6, keeps the IS 350’s overall dimensions within an... Continue Reading →
Born into a car family I don't have blood, pretty sure I have motor oil in my veins. It started before I was even born. My mom's dad sold Pontiacs and Hudsons while my other grandpa was a Chevy guy. My dad worked for AMC/Chrysler for 27 years and I've been told that I was... Continue Reading →
Taos another newcomer in expanding small crossover market ... Oh my, the burgeoning small crossover market just added another competitor, the Volkswagen Taos (rhymes with House), and if value is your main shopping criteria the Taos should be near the center of your bull’s-eye. Just in the last year I’ve reviewed the following tiny crossover... Continue Reading →
Lauda's 1974 F1 car a spectacular 1:43 model ... Ferrari’s Formula 1 cars of the 1960s and 1970s were beautiful and less complex looking than today’s multi-winged wonders that seem to have stretched to limousine proportions. Niki Lauda’s sassy Ferrari 312 B3 of 1974 is a standout example of this with a simple solid nose... Continue Reading →
Can a luxury sport sedan be a value leader? Yes, if it's a Genesis G70 ... In the olden days, 1980s and 1990s, there were a few grunty sport sedans that wouldn’t send a buyer to Uncle Guido for a small loan. That was then, this is now, and a loan is a near certainty.... Continue Reading →
Sonata N Line perks up performance, but remains high value ... Performance comes at a price, always has, always will. Sometimes the price is simply a higher cost, sometimes it’s a gas-hog engine, sometimes it’s a brutal ride. Hyundai is known for value so when it introduced its performance N, or now N Line, models... Continue Reading →
