The Five 2015 LA Auto Show Vehicle Debuts We’re Most Looking Forward To. premium
  2017 Audi RS7 Performance Debuts At: 3:35 pm PST The Audi RS7 is a stupid fast vehicle, as I quickly found out when I got behind the wheel of one, and put the gas pedal to the floor. I couldn’t help but laugh manically as the 4.0L twin turbo V8 quickly pulled the nearly 4,500 […]

Future Used Car Review: 2016 Cadillac Escalade Platinum premium
It's as attractive as it is obnoxious, the kind of vehicle that you know is ridiculous, but you want it anyway. I understand why pretentious Prius owners would sneer at the very idea of the Escalade, but I'd be quick to remind them that some people occasionally need up to 94.2 cubic feet of cargo space, or the ability to tow a maximum of 8,300 lbs.

Want That, Get This: 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R vs. 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302 premium
Admit it, you want a 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R. I don’t care if you’re a lifetime Camaro fan, there is a little piece of you, way deep down inside, that yearns for the newest, and most extreme version of the original Pony car. It’s ok, how can anyone not lust after a flat-plane crank […]

Wallpaper Wednesday: Jaguar C-X75 & Land Rover Defender premium
  This is a vehicle that should need no introduction, and yet it does, probably because it lives in the shadow of the “hero” car in Spectre, the Aston Martin DB10. Prior to seeing the C-X75 in person I probably would have said I’d take the DB10 if offered the keys to both, but having laid eyes […]

Wallpaper Wednesday: Peugeot 205 GTI 1.9L premium
There is many a hot hatch which never graced our fair shores here in the United States, and the Peugeot 205 GTI is one of the most desirable in that category. Launched in 1984 with a 1.6L inline-4 that produced 104hp, the GTI wasn’t blazingly fast, but it was peppy, and an absolute hoot to drive. A […]

Malaise Monday: ’73/’74 Chevrolet C/K Pickup premium

Debuting in mid-1972 as a ’73 model, the redesigned C/K line of Chevy trucks was like no other pickup truck that the world had seen before. GM called the styling “Rounded-Line”, and […]
