Test Drive: 2010 BMW 328i Coupe(View Comments)
The 328i BMW’s baseline car, and this week’s review car is very close to an absolute base model of the 328i. I like it when the review car is a base model, because then you can see what the car really is without an extra $10,000 worth of features.
In general, I’m not bowled over by [...]
2010 Kia Forté Koup is a Pleasant Surprise
When the Kia Forté sedan came out last summer, it was a revelation that the budget Korean automaker was committed to moving upscale and competing with Honda and Toyota for small car buyers. The sturdy Forté was well-liked by the press and the market alike. And right at the end of the press introduction, Kia [...]
2010 Camaro SS – Beauty and the Beast in One Package
I am predisposed to like the 2010 Camaro. After all, I raced a 1976 Camaro LT around the speedways of the Pacific Northwest for nigh on a decade in the 1990s. The 2010 version of Chevy’s classic pony car has little (if any) real connection to my old race car, but they do share the [...]
Sneak Peek – 2010 Lotus Evora
Today was the day that Lotus brought their one-and-only North American promotional Evora to Lotus of Portland for an invitation-only preview. Driving Sports has the scoop.
Electrifying – A Green Car Geek Drives the Alfa 8C Competizione!
By Nick Zart – Special to Driving Sports
If you ever found yourself in one of those situations where you were in the right place at the right time, than you will understand my weekend. I write about electric cars these days, and together with a friend, I decided to investigate a little startup called I-DriveGreen [...]
Bitchin’ Camaro
For baby boomers, the Chevrolet Camaro was an iconic pony car – the macho alternative to the two-seat Corvette. The Camaro was the working man’s hot rod, populating every dragstrip, road course, and local stock car racing circuit in America. In its Pontiac Trans-Am flavor, the same car achieved cult status as Burt Reynolds’ most [...]
2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8
This is 2009, and we’re supposed to be frugal, serious, and green. Especially here in Portland, Oregon where I live, greenness is a virtue we take seriously. We’re all about sensible transportation options.
The 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 is the antithesis of all that – it’s got 425 horsepower, gets about 16 miles per gallon, and [...]
2009 Jaguar XF Revisited
There really is something special about a Jaguar. Although the company was wholly owned by Ford for years and a few bits and pieces found their way across the pond to England’s pride, the essence of a Jag is still a thing apart from other cars.
That’s not to say a Jaguar is perfect – no [...]
2008 Mazda RX-8 40th Anniversary
Sometimes the RX-8 seems like a throwback. It’s the only car in the world still being made with Mazda’s quirky rotary engine. But is it more than the ultimate enthusiast car, with limited appeal beyond the tiny fraternity of rotary engine believers?
Mazda started shipping cars with Rotary engines in 1968, and 40 years later they’re [...]
2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe
Readers often ask why it is that car reviews are overwhelmingly positive almost all the time. The answer is simple: car companies don’t send their dogs to reporters. They know which cars are hot tickets and those are the ones they make available to the press. They would be silly to give us the rental [...]
