  • VW Beetle Convertible review coming up.

    This will be my ride for the next few days. A turbo model. Unfortunately, paired with the usual DSG. So far, I think it looks great, inside and out. Feels much heavier and solid tan the previous generation. And the 2.0 Liter Turbo still sounds like a diesel in the morning…

  • Nissan Sentra Test drive

    The Sentra is all-new for 2013. Looking a bit like a baby Altima. But I am not sure it works. Squeezing the Altima design onto a smaller platform isn’t the best idea. It does look weird and heavy from some angles. To make matter worse, my SR test car had horrible looking side skirts and… Continue reading Nissan Sentra Test drive

  • Kia Pro Cee’d GT

    The coupe version of the Euro Cee’d is getting a GTI fighter. And it looks quite nice. Looking more like a cross between a GTI and a Scirocco. Not sure of the specs yet, but you can bet it will be more powerful than the GTI. Although, as they say, power isn’t everything. Still, a… Continue reading Kia Pro Cee’d GT

  • 2014 VW GTI

    Here it is. The GTI version of the Golf VII. Now with a small pump to 230hp. The Golf will be on sale in the US about a year from now. We will get the mexican built version. The GTI should come over here at about the same time.

  • 2014 VW Golf/Jetta Wagon

    This is the wagon version of the all new Golf presented late last year in Europe. The Jetta Wagon we have in the US is basically the wagon version of the previous Golf. Now that the Golf and Jetta are very different cars, I wonder what they will call it in the US. Will they… Continue reading 2014 VW Golf/Jetta Wagon

And what better way than asking people who actually read it… I have a couple of questions: -Are you checking the site on a computer or a mobile device. Phone or tablet. -Are you seeing the same site on the computer and the phone. -My phone… Continue reading Questions for YOU.

  • 2013 Nissan Sentra test drive

    I must say, this is quite a different experience than the Jetta Hybrid I just returned… So far, hard seats, numb steering and a rough/noisy engine aren’t something I am looking forward to drive for the next week. Maybe things will get better….

  • Rolls Royce Wraith

    Here is the 1st picture of the all new “small” Coupe from Rolls Royce. Quite a different shape for them. Seems very modern. We’ll know more and see the whole thing early March.

  • VW Jetta Hybrid test drive

    I have driven most versions of the new Jetta over the past year, and was really curious about this new Hybrid.  It is one of these “invisible” Hybrids. It has a slightly different front end . And a few badges here and there. Most people will never know the difference between this and a regular… Continue reading VW Jetta Hybrid test drive
