The shapes seem pretty nice and modern. But this bad picture taken with a flash makes the whole thing looks really cheap and shiny.I don’t know why anyone would use a flash when taking pictures of a car interior outside.They do it all the time, and it always looks bad… More pictures soon.

Here it is, finally.Familiar and different.People who hate the Prius will still hate it. But it won’t matter.Roomier, more power and better mileage will make it a huge it around the world. More later.

And again, looking great.Seems that Ford really put some effort into the interior.Although all these shots use all the tricks available to make almost anything look good. We’ll see for ourselves in a few weeks.

The next RL is supposed to finally get a V8. Just in time for the most expensive gallon of gas ever… Seems that Honda finally caved in. What a wrong timing… From this picture, it looks like Acura has no intention to tone down the obnoxious grille they’ve been using lately. Although I must say,… Continue reading Next Acura RL?

With almost no camouflage. The interior does look like a step up from the current version.I never drove the current model, but always liked the design. I will be testing it (The 2008) next week. To see for myself.But this new one looks much more aggressive. Let’s hope they keep the prices down as well.

Here is a picture of some GM suits checking out the all new Chinese only Buick Regal. This is basically an Opel Insignia with a Buick grille.Should this be sold over here as well?What do you think???

The more I see this car the more I like it.And with the availability of a 2.0 Liter Turbo, it even makes sense…This might turn out to be quite a hit for Hyundai. Let’s just hope they keep the prices down….

In a shot taken from a teaser for the new need for Speed Video game. And it looks even better than the spy shots I’ve seen of the car.I can’t wait to see it at the L.A Auto show.

The 300hp V6 LS “base” model will start at $23 000.While the 422hp V8 SS model will cost $31 000. 6 speed auto or manual are both available. The V6 is rated at 27mpg Hwy. Not bad, really. While the V8 returns 23mpg. Even though you’ll have to wait until march to see the 1st… Continue reading 2010 Chevrolet Camaro prices

Toyota will be selling the iQ as a Scion in the US.Motor Trend claims this will happen in late 2009. It’s a really cute car, and more practical than a Smart. I’ll report on this next month, when a Scion branded iQ might be showing up at the L.A Auto show.

Ford is now actually considering selling its share of Mazda.Another weird news. US car makers need so much cash to just survive right now, it’s amazing. And sad at the same time. Ford owns a bit over 33% of Mazda, which could be worth around $ 1.3 Billion. That seems like a lot. But I… Continue reading Ford getting rid of Mazda???

That would have been some crazy thought a while ago. But apparently, the 2 companies have been talking for a month. Not sure what 2 huge brands in trouble could accomplish. And if that doesn’t work, Chrysler is rumored to also be talking to Renault/Nissan. For more on this, read the New York Times article… Continue reading GM/Chrysler merger in the works???

-HOW DOES IT LOOK? Well, most people would agree, the Enclave does look great in person. It’s actually quite a turnaround for Buick. It does look expensive without being cheesy. It kind of reminds me of an American Audi Q7. And just because it’s American, it is a bit bigger too. And not afraid of… Continue reading Buick Enclave review
