I had fixed the things that needed to be fixed myself, or with help from a local shop, and I was poised to make a nice little profit on the vehicle.

Yes, absolutely, so you definitely need to take into consideration just how much you want the latest, and greatest infotainment system, because that's really what you're paying for. Volvo's Sensus system works well enough, it's not as pretty, but it gets the job done.

We’ve all been there, sitting in the used vehicle of our dreams, wondering what kind of heinous acts were perpetrated within it by the previous owner. You can ask them point blank what kind of life the vehicle has lived, and what it was primarily used for, but they’re under no obligation to tell […]

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 […]

While I appreciate the entirety of the C5 Audi A6 lineup, it is the post facelift ’02-’04 models that hold a special place in my heart, and on my automotive bucket list. Audi took an already beautiful design and tweaked it ever so slightly to give the final 3 model year A6s the sendoff they […]
