Mazda CX-3 test drive coming up…
Just got this really cute Mazda CX-3 for a week, And as usual, will report on it soon. It is a loaded Grand Touring model with Premium package. Just drove it around town for a few miles. So far, this is a really cute and super good looking thing. But that engine is super loud… Continue reading Mazda CX-3 test drive coming up…

Chevrolet Camaro 2.0 Liter Track package test drive.
I have always been a fan of the current Camaro design. Sure, it does have some drawbacks in daily driving, like a major lack of visibility (more on that later), But it does look good. I am not a fan of black wheels, spoilers etc.. But this track model I drove for a week actually looked… Continue reading Chevrolet Camaro 2.0 Liter Track package test drive.

Buick Regal GS test drive
I always thought the current Buick Regal, and its European twin the Opel Insignia, were very good looking cars. The sportier GS version of the Buick adds very subtle sporty touches. Like a very small rear spoiler, and body-colored side skirts. On top of gorgeous wheels. The front end is also slightly more aggressive looking. but everything… Continue reading Buick Regal GS test drive

Buick Regal GS test drive coming up…
I will be driving a new Buick Regal GS this week. And since the weather seems to be decent today, (more rain this weekend) I am taking it to the beach. Where I could take some cool 60’s looking “car on the sand” pictures… So far, this seems really nice. I did drive the regular… Continue reading Buick Regal GS test drive coming up…

Cadillac XT4 test drive.
I think the new XT4 is a really nice looking small SUV. Especially with the 20-inch wheels from the Sports version, I got to drive. At 181 inches long it actually is a bit longer than the Mazda CX-5 but appears shorter. Same thing inside. It is pretty luxurious while keeping things pretty simple looking.… Continue reading Cadillac XT4 test drive.

Cadillac XT4 test drive coming up…
I just got a brand new Cadillac XT4 to drive this week. As you can see, the weather has not been great in Hollywood lately. No artic vortex here, but still, not the best to drive around. But it should be over soon and I will be spending plenty of time behind the wheel. The… Continue reading Cadillac XT4 test drive coming up…

GMC Acadia Denali test drive
I think the Acadia is one of the best looking 3 rows SUVs out there. Sure, the top of the line Denali version is a bit chromy for my taste. But other versions are a bit lighter on the shiny stuff. The shape is really nice. And it is a great size for such a roomy… Continue reading GMC Acadia Denali test drive

Honda Clarity Plug-in Hybrid test drive
I think the Clarity looks quite futuristic and modern. I do understand it has been met with criticism and ends up being quite polarizing. Most of the criticism seems to target the rear fenders. Which cover the top part of the wheels, and end up making the car’s rear end look a bit lumpier than… Continue reading Honda Clarity Plug-in Hybrid test drive
-
Honda Insight test drive
The all new Insight is quite a good looking sedan. Although it looks very similar to the current Civic, it has a more grown up and sophisticated feel to it. With less lines, scoops and fake vents. This obviously caters to a more mature audience. (Especially in black, like my test car) I was actually… Continue reading Honda Insight test drive
-
Cadillac CT6 Plug-In hybrid test drive.
The Cadillac CT6 is a very nice looking car in real life. Much nicer than what I though from early pictures back when it came out. It is a large, imposing car. It has a great low and wide stance. And looks more athletic than other large sedans from the competition. The rear end is… Continue reading Cadillac CT6 Plug-In hybrid test drive.
-
GMC Terrain Denali test drive
The GMC Terrain looks much nicer and upscale than the previous version. It is just a much more refined design. Gone is the rather cheap looking blocky shape. It does look larger than it is. While it is the same size as a Honda CR-V, it somehow seems more imposing. Which might just be what… Continue reading GMC Terrain Denali test drive
-
Chevrolet Bolt test drive
I do like the design of the Bolt. It has a fun and friendly personality. Sure, some details could be toned down (Like some of the chrome bits) And the original concept did look a bit nicer (Especially that really cool glass roof) Overall, it reminds me a bit of the Honda Fit. (Except better… Continue reading Chevrolet Bolt test drive
-
Buick Regal test drive.
The new Regal is a really nice looking car. Better “in the flesh” than in many pictures I have seen of it. The hatchback is kind of concealed. The design could look like one of these fastback sedans with a tiny trunk opening, but it is not. I have read quite a few criticisms about… Continue reading Buick Regal test drive.

VW E Golf test drive
The E-Golf is a fine looking car. Since the Golf is quite handsome in general. But that’s about it…. The shape is now super familiar. And there is almost nothing to distinguish the rather futuristic E-Golf from any other Golf. Except the wheels and a few details. The car I was driving was also white.… Continue reading VW E Golf test drive

VW Golf Test Drive
After a GTI, I was curious to see how the “regular” Golf was. Sure, the GTI is a great car, and very fast. But the base Golf is almost $6000 less…. The Golf is available in limited choices in the US. Only one engine. And just 2 models that aren’t that different. The one I… Continue reading VW Golf Test Drive

2018 Toyota Camry test drive.
The people at Autoblog got the drive the new Camry.HERE is what they thought of it. Basically, they loved it. But that is usually the case with every new generation.Every time there is a new Camry, we hear/read how much better it is. How “this time” they got it right.How they “finally” made it a “much better driver” etc…In… Continue reading 2018 Toyota Camry test drive.

VW Jetta 1.4 SE test drive
Nothing new outside. It’s the same old Jetta. The current generation is entering its 7th year (!!!) for 2017. And, no one has seen any prototype of a replacement driving around. Which means it’ll be with us for at least another year, or two. Needless to say, that design, which looked quite boring even 7… Continue reading VW Jetta 1.4 SE test drive
-
Chevrolet Cruze test drive
The all new Cruze is a really nice looking car in the flesh. I was a little underwhelmed when I first sat in one at the Auto show. I thought it was just OK. But this top of the line Premier model I had for a week was much nicer. And much more upscale looking.… Continue reading Chevrolet Cruze test drive

VW Beetle Dune Convertible Test Drive
I have driven a few versions of the current Beetle before. So this is a pretty familiar car to me. But this Dune model is all new. Available as a coupe or convertible. It is actually so new, that VW was not able to quote me a price on the car I was test driving… Continue reading VW Beetle Dune Convertible Test Drive
