All new Kia Optima SportsWagon
What a good looking wagon this is. Really. The current Optima is not as original as the previous one, which is too bad. But it does look really good in real life. So this should be great. A slightly raised up AWD version of this would look so much better than the heavy handed, blocky… Continue reading All new Kia Optima SportsWagon

2017 Fiat 124 Spider European price
The European press is reporting a 34 000 Euros price for the new Fiat Convertible. Which is about 4000 Euros more than the equivalent 160HP version of the Mazda Miata. (A cheaper, less powerful version is also available over there) The Lusso model would be 2500 Euros more. In the US, the Miata starts at… Continue reading 2017 Fiat 124 Spider European price

Nissan Altima Spy shots???
These were actually taken today, and sent to me by a reader. It seems really strange for Nissan to camouflage this car, since it is the current 2016 Altima. I checked everything, and I can’t see anything new. Maybe a very early mule for the next “all new” model, due out in a couple of… Continue reading Nissan Altima Spy shots???

Fiat Toro “Sport Utility Pick Up”
So far, they claim this is only for the Brazilian market. Even though the design screams “Jeep”. I think Fiat would be stupid to not sell this as a Jeep Pick up in the US. Ram does need a smaller pick up, but this just looks so much like a Jeep already… Engines in Brazil… Continue reading Fiat Toro “Sport Utility Pick Up”

Another Renault Alpine Concept
The Alpine is almost like Alfa Romeo in the US: they keep saying it’s coming back. But nothing yet. Everyone thought the new car would be shown this eek, but all we got is another concept. “80% close to the production model ” this time. Who knows… When it finally comes out (Maybe before the… Continue reading Another Renault Alpine Concept

Mercedes C-Class Convertible teaser
Looking great already. An even cleaner design than the coupe (The stupid rear bumper “air vents” seem to be gone) A new convertible is always good news to me. This looks to be quite a treat. Even though it might still start at above $45 000. it should still be quite a bit cheaper than… Continue reading Mercedes C-Class Convertible teaser

2017 Audi Q2
Here we have what will be Audi’s smallest SUV, the new Q2. “Sportier” and more modern than the Q3, it is based on the newer MQB platform. So it’s basically a Golf. After seating an a Q3, I’m not sure why they would want to even go smaller. But, I guess it makes sense in… Continue reading 2017 Audi Q2

Hyundai Ioniq Vs,Toyota Prius
It’s that time again. Every time I see new pictures of the Ioniq, I feel like comparing it to the new Prius. Like I mentioned before, I never disliked the previous generation Prius. It’s not something I would get for myself, but a few friends of mine have one, and it is OK. (Even though… Continue reading Hyundai Ioniq Vs,Toyota Prius

2017 Kia Niro video
Sure, the plastic on the door panels look pretty shiny and hard. Still. Compared to the new Prius, this seems much, much more upscale. And especially better looking. Just look how they even used a bit of white plastic on the console, and it doesn’t look like a bathtub! (Unlike the urinal inspired console in… Continue reading 2017 Kia Niro video

2017 Nissan Armada
As you can see, now the Armada is just an Infiniti QX80 with less chrome and wood. (Which itself is a Nissan Patrol with more chrome and wood…) So basically, this is the japanese version of the Tahow/Escalade routine. Which, I guess, does make business sense. Plus, big trucks sales are up. (Since idiots… Continue reading 2017 Nissan Armada

All new Kia Niro Hybrid
That, is a good looking Hybrid! It has a longer wheelbase than the Sportage, and 146HP. And they are expecting 50MPG average! Which is quite something. Almost 10 more than the Ford C Max Hybird. And the Rav4 Hybrid only gets 34City/31HWY. This should be great news for anyone shopping for a hybrid crossover. And… Continue reading All new Kia Niro Hybrid

2017 Chevrolet Trax
Just like the Opel Mokka (Buick Encore) we saw a few days ago, the Trax is getting a new face. Not sure if the new headlights match the rest of the body now… But it’s OK. Inside, things seem better and more upscale. Which is great. I do like the current model quite a bit.… Continue reading 2017 Chevrolet Trax

Something you don’t see every day…
Not every day, but every week, at Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank. A great place for great cars every friday nights. I actually had never seen a Bricklin in person. It looked great!

New De Lorean Commercial
Apparently, we are getting new Delorean cars next year. Not sure if they will start building whole new cars from original tooling? Or new tooling? One thing is sure, they will be getting a new engine. My guess would be a Toyota V6. (Toyota has already been selling their V6 to other small manufacturers) Which… Continue reading New De Lorean Commercial

Something you don’t see every day…
I saw it in Malibu a few days ago, driving right behind me. A couple of days later, it was in Hollywood Of course, the douchebag behind the wheel was driving like an asshole. Too fast, swerving abruptly. Staring at girls, making sure they’d notice. I don’t think this is on sale yet. So it… Continue reading Something you don’t see every day…

2017 Opel Mokka X
This is pretty much what we can expect for our Buick Encore by the end of this year. No big changes, but they are all welcome. The LED lights look great. As does the new dashboard inside. Closer to newer Opels like the Astra. And also, closer to recent and upcoming Buicks. Engine is a… Continue reading 2017 Opel Mokka X

GM killed the Cadillac ELR
They have finally announced officially that there will be no 2nd generation. Of course!! For some reason, the stupid suits at GM never wanted the ELR to succeed. So the first thing they did was pricing it at $76 000. $76 000!!!! What the hell? It was more than a base Tesla with over 4… Continue reading GM killed the Cadillac ELR

More pictures of the all new 2017 Kia Cadenza/K7
Looking really nice on these pictures. The main problem is, no matter how great it is, it is still a $35 000 Kia (2016 model) And most people aren’t ready for that, still. But for the non-snobs who can forget about brand image for a minute, this seems great. I mean, it seems as luxurious… Continue reading More pictures of the all new 2017 Kia Cadenza/K7
