Car Spot: Pontiac Solstice

It was only with us for 5 short years I can't think of a car guy who has been more instrumental in bringing so much performance to the market than Bob Lutz. The ex-Marine, while at Ford of Europe, led the creation of the Ford Escort III and Ford Sierra, at Chrysler, the Viper, and... Continue Reading →

Car Spot: 79 Hurst Olds

Hurst and Olds had a great run touting both brands' performance.

Car Spot: 2001 Pontiac Aztek

Tried to please everyone but ended up appealing to almost no one. I've been looking for one of these for the longest time. Not because they're cool, just the opposite. I know, as an owner of a '72 AMC Gremlin and '75 Pacer, what's the saying? Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Well, at... Continue Reading →

2022 BMW M440i xDrive Gran Coupe

Lively M440i noses ahead of luxury coupe competition ... Back in the day (old dudes expression) BMW’s 2002 coupe wasn’t so grand, it was just light and lively and sold like schnitzel in Munich.

2019 Lexus ES 350 F Sport

Low-end Lexus ES just keeps getting longer, wider ... The new Lexus ES 350 is longer, lower and wider than its predecessor, a formula that sounds a lot like that offered by Pontiac for years.
