New Ford Ranger
Just when you think Ford is finally seriously updating the old Ranger…It’s not for us…This new version is mainly designed for Thailand. It looks like it is still based on the old Ranger, but this time, the changes are more than just a new grille.The interior looks actually really good. A sort of scaled down… Continue reading New Ford Ranger

2007 Jeep Wrangler 4 door
Still covered, but not for long… As you can see, it is just a straight 4 door version of the new Wrangler recently introduced.I think Chrysler has another hit on their hands. Adding 2 door to the Jeep Icon is a no brainer.It is amazing it took them so long to do it. This car… Continue reading 2007 Jeep Wrangler 4 door

Toyota Camry “quickie”
That’s right.I got the chance to do a quick test drive of the all new Camry. So here is what I think… The car I drove was a 2.4 Liter XLE. No options.That means no leather or navigation. I have to say I wasn’t disappointed by the interior. After seeing many pictures of in in… Continue reading Toyota Camry “quickie”

New Audi TT
The redesigned TT is due pretty soon. And this looks like an official Audi “teaser”. But I am not sure. It might still not be. One thing is sure, the TT has been spotted doing testing with almost no camouflage.So it won’t be too long before we see the real thing… I personally think the… Continue reading New Audi TT

Dodge Caliber impressions
I just saw the Dodge Caliber today. And just for a few minutes. I didn’t get to actually drive it.The one I saw was a Sport model with a few options for around $17 000. I really like the exterior design of the car. It is actually not that small in person.And it is really… Continue reading Dodge Caliber impressions

Cadillac BLS
This isn’t brand new, but it is finally getting on sale in Europe. The prices start at around 30 000 Euros for the 2.0 Liter to 42 000 Euros for a loaded 2.8 Liter V6 (255hp). If it seems expensive to us, remember that in Europe a 2.0 Liter (non Turbo) Audi A4 starts at… Continue reading Cadillac BLS

Lexus IS 500
It seems like Lexus is really getting a coupe version of the new IS ready.And the 1st model might be this 5.0 Liter V8 version. I am not sure if the V8 will be available in the sedan or the upcoming convertible. And no word either on a V6 Coupe. I also heard of January… Continue reading Lexus IS 500

Chevrolet Aveo Test drive
These little Daewoo made Chevys seem to be almost everywhere.I hear they are even more popular in Canada. After a couple of days, I came out actually pretty impressed. The first thing you notice is how roomy the car is. Even in the back.Everything seems to be well put together, but the interior does look… Continue reading Chevrolet Aveo Test drive

Toyota Yaris TS
The TS “Concept” is pretty much the same car as the one I posted a while ago. It is a 1.8 Liter version of the small Toyota, with a sport suspension and 17 inch wheels..And of course, it is not coming to the US…

Skoda Roomster
All I say is, put a VW logo on this one and bring it over here. It would be great to see this offered against the Scion xB.Something with style instead od just a cube. But …. VW isn’t that smart….So are many others, like Ford and GM, who offer great cars in Europe that… Continue reading Skoda Roomster

Nissan GTR
No new cars or nipples today.And this illustration isn’t great, but it’s something… The GTR Concept shown a while ago is pretty different from this. So I don’t think this illustration is too accurate.But the GTR is a go for the US market. As a Nissan or an Infiniti. Maybe it’ll succeed where the GTO… Continue reading Nissan GTR
