Vehicle Reviews
In the second year of its redesign, the GMC Sierra now comes equipped with XM satellite radio and a Sierra All-Terrain package.
The Ford Mustang GT looks great, is fun to drive thanks to its torque-endowed V8, and takes to the twists and turns. What more could you ask for?
The SUV market is splitting rapidly, with crossover vehicles taking the place of minivans as suburban people-haulers, and body-on-frame vehicles playing up the advantages of being real trucks instead of tall station wagons. In this increasingly specialized market, there's not much room for a vehicle that attempts to please everyone while excelling at nothing.
The Volkswagen R32 doesn't look like the big, bad flagship performers from the Other Guys. It lacks the aggressive, spoilers-vents-and-flares look of cars like the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and Subaru WRX STi, and there isn't a distinctive exhaust roar to rattle the windows as it approaches.
Combining high ground clearance and all wheel drive with sleek coupe-like styling and the driving dynamics that have made BMW products highly coveted by driving enthusiasts, the BMW X6 ushers in a series of firsts for the BMW brand.
At once common and extraordinary, the Mercedes SL has enjoyed iconic status since it was first offered as a production car in 1955. Strongly associated with style, glamour and the good life, nothing says, 'I've made it y'all!' quite like a Mercedes-Benz SL.
You know that friend who's always messing up and can't seem to win for losing, but who's so much fun to be around that you just can't stop hanging out with him or her? That's the Jaguar XJR in a nutshell. Jaguar's flagship sedan isn't the best or the most respected of large sports sedans--but when it's good, it's good enough to make you forget about its many flaws.
When GM introduced the Saturn brand, it was tagged as a new kind of car company. Well, that new kind of car company now has a whole new showroom. Believe it or not, the oldest car in the Saturn lineup is now the Sky sports car. And the newest car in the lineup is the Astra (sort of), which went on sale in the U.S. in December of 2007.
If you find the idea of Audi's S4 Cabriolet appealing, but feel it's a bit lacking in performance, perhaps the RS4 Cabriolet will fill the bill.
Fresh off of a redesign for 2007, the G5 is Pontiac's entry in the highly competitive sport compact segment. A virtual twin to Chevrolet's Cobalt, the G5 offers the entry-level driver sporty styling and an ample selection of essential equipment.
Bigger than before but less expensive, the all-new Forester excels at what it does best
It's remarkably easy to get to know the Hyundai Tucson. That's not just because it's a friendly little compact SUV with a comfortable seating position, pleasant driving dynamics and more bad-terrain ability than you'd expect.
The truckers and manly-men of the world might not want to believe it, but the minivan is a serious workhorse. As soon as the 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan landed in my driveway, I put the all-new minivan to work.
Suzuki is a brand best known for its tough compact SUVs and motorcycles, and the brand has never been one of the first names to jump to mind when considering compact cars. Oh, sure, the Suzuki Swift was an economy champ back in the day, and even a bit entertaining when turbocharged, but most people remember that car as the Geo Metro.
Okay, so why does the Volkswagen Touareg suddenly have a "2" at the end of its name? Is this a smaller Touareg, or a companion model? You'd be forgiven for assuming that the name "Touareg 2" referred to VW's upcoming compact sport-ute, but nope, that rig goes by the name of Tiguan. No, "Touareg 2" is what VW is calling the redesigned Touareg that's debuting for 2008.
Toyota completes the redesign of its full-size truck line-up this year with the all-new Toyota Sequoia.
'Is it warning us, or is it egging us on?'
This thought crossed our mind as we sat behind the wheel of Jaguar's new XF for our first drive, watching the start button rhythmically, hypnotically, flashing red.
Lexus' flagship SUV is upgraded and up-rated for 2008, but if you blink, you'll miss this limited-production beast.
Land Rover's new baby is a fantastic luxury compact SUV, but is it priced too high?
Volvo introduces a stylish, sporty compact hatch to compete with the Audi A3 and MINI Cooper.
