2010 Honda Insight Review – TTAC

TTAC reviews the 2010 Honda Insight and gives it 4 stars – ‘Combined with the Insight’s Eco button—a kind of anti-Nitrous switch that puts the car into super conserve mode—the gauges and lights serve as new substitutes for a gear shift and tons of torque. It helps make you a more controlled, responsive driver [...]

2010 Honda Insight Review – Jalopnik

Jalopnik reviews the 2010 Honda Insight and has this to say – ‘The Econ button is capable of making the Insight about 10% more efficient on its own. Think of it like Prozac for cars, evening out the peaks and valleys of your throttle inputs, turning the engine off earlier when coming to a [...]

2010 Ford Mustang GT Review – TTAC

TTAC reviews the 2010 Ford Mustang GT and has this to say – ‘The Bullitt made great strides in addressing the standard car’s handling issues. The 2010 Mustang GT crosses the finish line. More bracing, tighter spring rates, more damping, thicker sway bars and greatly improved aerodynamics work together to create the first Mustang [...]

2009 Acura TL Review – TTAC

TTAC reviews the 2009 Acura TL and writes – ‘Acura slipped the TSX’ new electric steering system into its stealth flagship. Turn-in is precise and predictable at urban speeds, but road feel is reduced. At higher speeds, the weighting applied feels artificial and unintuitive. This is not your father’s Buick. But it could be yours.  [...]

2009 Cadillac CTS-V Review – Jalopnik

Jalopnik has a chance to drive the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V and comes away with this – ‘By now, you’ve probably guessed that I really, really enjoyed driving the Cadillac CTS-V.

2008 BMW M3 Review – TTAC

TTAC reviews the 2008 BMW M3 and writes – ‘To say the M3 is ferociously quick is to say you don’t mind revving the 4.0-liter V8 to 8300 rpm. Why would you? Like Ferrari’s entry-level models, the sounds coming from the M3’s mill on the way to peak power make the journey half the trip– [...]

2008 BMW M3 Review – Left Lane News

Left Lane News reviews the 2008 BMW M3 and comes away with this – ‘The trouble with the new M3 is that, in more sedate colors, it’s easy to mistake it for a regular 3-Series. Of course, this has always been then case for BMW’s “M” cars. Bulging fenders aside, untrained observes won’t notice much [...]

2009 Dodge Journey Review – Cars.com

Cars.com reviews the 2009 Dodge Journey and has this to say – ‘The Journey is based on the Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Avenger platform. Neither one of those cars thrilled me in the performance department. I’m not talking smoky burnouts from stoplights, I’m talking going to the grocery store and dry cleaner. Even when equipped [...]

2009 Jaguar XF Review – Autoblog

Autoblog drives the 2009 Jaguar XF and has this to say – ‘The interior is another issue entirely. The fit, finish and execution are totally unmatched in this highly competitive class and we can say with impunity that nothing short of a Roller or a Bentley comes close to the design and materials inside the [...]

2008 Pontiac G8 GT Review – Hollywood Extra

The funky Hollywood Extra reviews the 2008 Pontiac G8 GT and comes away with this – ‘It is quite a lot of car for the money. Even a fully optioned model is $32 700.  As long as you don’t expect a BMW (at that price you shouldn’t, but some people still do…), don’t care about [...]
