The US models will all come with a 2.0 Liter good for 142hp.5 speed manual is standard while a 4 speed auto is an option. 4 speed?!?!?! Really???That is just too bad. That thing looks so modern. And you know the 4 speed auto will be the most popular model. Don’t expect amazing MPG numbers… Continue reading Kia Soul, US version

I’ll tell you what I think of these within the next few days.But remember. It’s just what I think. Not what is. No matter what I say, it still is just a matter of opinion. And taste.

Again, this is pretty much our Chevrolet Cruze with a new grille. And 2 years ahead of ours…

The next generation Focus will be the same model for Europe and the US.Just like the new Fiesta. So we will probably get this one about a year after its European introduction, and in time for the sedan version to be ready.Which could mean a 2011 model.This illustration from Auto Express shows quite a modern… Continue reading All new Ford Focus

And again, looking really nice. But for my taste,I still like the new Camaro interior better. We’ll see in a couple of weeks.

And it still looks amazing to me.Again, I really like the current model, always have. But this one seems really great. I am currently test driving a 350Z Roadster for the week, and it is one of my favorite cars already.I can’t imagine how good the new one will be. Let’s hope they’ll keep the… Continue reading New Nissan 370Z Pictures

No other news about this one yet.But it seems that every new Chinese car that comes out actually looks pretty decent now.They are moving ahead very fast.Much faster than the Japanese and Korean manufacturers did. But to be fair. They do have it easy. With billions of dollars from the Chinese government. Everybody else in… Continue reading New Geely Compact

The Opel Insignia looks so good, it can take a Buick grille. For the Chinese market, where engine choices are:-2.4 Liter with 165hp. Similar to the one in our Malibu.-2.0Liter turbo with 217hp. Less than our 260hp version. So no V6 so far. Not a bad choice, I think.GM should try selling mid sized sedans… Continue reading Official: Chinese Buick Regal

1.6 Liter with 107hp for $10 000. So now, the ugliest car on the market is also the cheapest one. Would you really get this over a used car?

They don’t look as grainy as the previous one.And the interior looks like it could be pretty impressive in person.But the exterior is just more of what Lexus has been doing over the years: a weird match of many other designs, including their own.The result is just another car with zero personality.And again, the market… Continue reading New Pictures of the all new Lexus RX

I guess there is still a small market for big giant power hungry pick up trucks. Somewhere.For whoever can get approved for credit… But I must say, I like the front end design. A new take on the big “Ford name” pick up trucks used to have printed on the rear gate.Now it’s in front.… Continue reading Ford F-150 SVT Raptor

Yes, Korea. As the Daewoo Lacetti, with its own grille.It has been delayed for the US. because GM is trying to save short term expenses by delaying almost all their new models, except the Camaro and Volt.Plus, the old Cobalt is selling more than ever. GM delaying new and better models is a big mistake.… Continue reading Korean Chevy Cruze already out.

So far, for Chile only…Basically an Opel Insignia with a Chevy badge.It still looks great.

it’s been a new trend lately: the toy versions of new cars coming out before the real thing.Weird, but kind of funny. The latest ones are the all new Nissan Cube and the revised 2010 Ford Mustang

There is nothing new about the 350Z. We’ve all seen it. Many times. But I was always curious to see how it drives. I usually do no drive sports car, and when I do, I try to see if they make good every day cars as well. Plus, the all new 370Z isn’t even out… Continue reading Nissan 350Z test drive.
