2016 Kia Sedona SXL

New Kia Sedona improves on solid package I had driven the new Kia Sedona early this year and frankly, it had a few issues. I liked much the minivan had to offer then, and now. But I’m most impressed that all of my earlier concerns seem to have been tended to within the first year.... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: BoS-Models’ Chevrolet Corvette Corvair Concept

Corvette Corvair Concept sharp car at low cost Early Corvettes were stylish sports cars, not the big fire-breathing muscle rods they became by the 1970s and that they continue as today. So a fastback model in 1954 would have been cooler than even Ford’s Thunderbird and shows General Motors had the right idea, if only... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: 1959 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer Convertible

NEO’s 'Forward Look' Dodge Lancer is Fin-tastic I admit to having a soft spot in my car styling heart for the “Forward Look” Chrysler and Dodge models created by Virgil Exner in the late 1950s and early ‘60s. These big-finned beauties featured dramatic taillights and oodles of chrome trim on their fronts, sides and backs. My Uncle Paul... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Autoart Lamborghini Aventador J

Small roofless Aventador looks great Proving that good things come in small packages I present the Lamborghini Aventador J in 1/43 scale by Autoart. This is one beautiful model, and comes at well less than you might expect to pay for a fine diecast car in this scale. The History The edgy Aventador coupe was... Continue Reading →

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata Club

Redesigned Mazda Miata still the perfect sport car My generation may have been having fun, fun, fun till our daddy’s took our T-birds away, but since 1989 the fun, fun, fun has mostly been provided by Mazda’s Miata. Lyrically it’s not the same at all, but the feeling continues to be the same and the nearly all... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Bburago LaFerrari

Bburago delivers high-value matte black LaFerrari I can’t explain it, but the youngsters these days are going crazy over matte finishes on cars, motorcycles, snowmobiles and ATVs. It is different, but looks like primer paint to me. Still, Bburago gives them what they want with its new matte, or flat, black LaFerrari in 1:18 scale. The... Continue Reading →

2016 Honda HR-V 2WD EX-L w/Nav

Honda's new HR-V just another solid little ute Honda makes many fine cars that perform well, get good gas mileage and are reliable and its new small personal-sized crossover, the HR-V fits that mold. But Honda, like Toyota before it, seems to have neglected styling in pursuit of its other laudable attributes. So the HR-V, like... Continue Reading →

2016 Mazda CX-3 Touring AWD

New CX-3 a spirited, fun, small crossover             Mazda isn’t the first car maker with a small personal-sized SUV, but it certainly has one of the most stylish and fun to drive with its new CX-3. The CX-3 continues the tone set by Mazda’s slightly larger CX-5 that competes with the likes of Toyota’s RAV4, Subaru’s Forester... Continue Reading →

2016 Mitsubishi Outlander 3.0 GT S-AWC

New Outlander good, but doesn't raise SUV bar Mitsubishi doesn’t sell many models in the United States, so when it re-launches one, as with the new 2016 Outlander, it had better be good. The Outlander is good, but it sets no new bar for small sport-utilities, or crossovers. Yet it does raise the bar considerably... Continue Reading →

2015 Hyundai Tucson Ltd. AWD

Stylish Hyundai Tucson looks great, drives great             I’ve found my new favorite small crossover vehicle, the Hyundai Tucson. I’ll admit to being surprised, but I’m not sure why. Hyundai and sister company Kia have become the styling leaders among Asian car makes and their performance is on par, or better than most of their... Continue Reading →
