The Other Porsches: 924 (Nov 06, 2012) A friend of mine had a 924 and a 944. I remember how torquey the engines were and very chuckable the cars felt.
Maserati Previews New Quattroporte (Nov 06, 2012) Not feeling the big sense of occasion here as I would if I'd looked at a Porsche Panamera, Jaguar XJ or Audi A8 interior. Not hating at all but not blown away by it either. Was expecting more Italian flair here, but nice all the same.
End of the Road for Lancia? (Nov 05, 2012) Now you're talking!

Toyota Celebrates 75 Years (Nov 05, 2012) Was this designed by an eight year old using only a pen and ruler?
The Other Porsches: 914 (Nov 05, 2012) Agreed.
The Other Porsches: 914 (Nov 05, 2012) Looks like a wedge of cheese.
The Other Porsches: 914 (Nov 05, 2012) And Ferry Porsche's son, 'Butzi', was responsible for the 911. Sadly he died earlier this year.
Fiat Planning New Five-Door Hot Hatches (Nov 05, 2012) The 100HP sold really well in the UK. Such a fun little car.

4 Top Challenger Tune Jobs (Nov 04, 2012) Change the doors.
Chrome XKR-S by Superior Auto Design (Nov 03, 2012) No. Just no. Please stop with the chrome and matt wraps - it's all getting a bit passé now.
Audi R8 by Concept Motorsports Indonesia (Nov 03, 2012) Love the wheels and the colour.
5 Luxury Lamborghini Commercials (Nov 03, 2012) Wallpaper!
48 Karmas Gather in Santa Monica (Nov 02, 2012) The noise in the background is really annoying.
Mercedes Reveals A45 AMG (Nov 02, 2012) @ Brandon. What do you mean by 'fuggels?'
The Girls of SEMA 2012 (Nov 01, 2012) He looks like a cross between Rick 'The Boss' Ross and Mr. T.
The Girls of SEMA 2012 (Nov 01, 2012) Wow she's really cute. Would look even better in a nicer shaped figure hugging dress IMO.
Jeff Dunham Reveals Custom Challenger (Nov 01, 2012) Smaller vehicles?! As opposed to what exactly?
Acura Brings ILX Street and Racing Concepts to SEMA (Nov 01, 2012) Nice to still see a manual in a race car.
Ford GT Sets 283MPH Standing Mile Record (Nov 01, 2012) A very proud man and deservedly so.
Big Muscle Drives Eleanor Mustang (Nov 01, 2012) @ Kiran. Could you explain why you think it sucks? Whilst I'm not the biggest muscle car fan on Car Buzz by any stretch, I do appreciate good cars in whatever form they come in.
DRT: Super Drag Race in Poland (Oct 30, 2012) @ Jörgen. It is an Elise.

Bugatti Debuts Vitesse Rafale in Brazil (Oct 22, 2012) This looks great IMO.
Mercedes Planning Baby GLG SUV (Oct 19, 2012) Don't forget me too, John.
Jeep Wrangler CJ300 by Kahn (Oct 19, 2012) This one actually doesn't look bad. Apart from the yellow paint making it resemble a Hummer H2.
5 NBA-Approved Auto Ads (Oct 19, 2012) Great colour coordination - tastefully done.
Porsche Announces Platinum Edition Panamera (Oct 19, 2012) Compared to other cars in its class from Aston Martin, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz and Maserati - it just doesn't look as harmonious and cohesive in its design as any of the afore mentioned.
Lexus Reveals LF-LC Blue Concept Down Under (Oct 18, 2012) I hope if there's a production version that it looks close to this. It's a stunning looking car regardless of badge or price bracket.
DeltaWing Crashes (Again) at Road Atlanta (Oct 18, 2012) @ Mark Donnelly. That sentence made no sense at all.
5 Four-Seat Lamborghinis (Oct 18, 2012) @ Jordan. Agreed.
5 Four-Seat Lamborghinis (Oct 18, 2012) All I see is four-doored perfection.
5 Four-Seat Lamborghinis (Oct 18, 2012) I'd buy this over the Urus in a heartbeat. I'd even buy this over my favourite current Lamborghini, the Aventador. Pity it might not see production. If I had countless millions in the bank, I'd get them to build me one.
5 Four-Seat Lamborghinis (Oct 18, 2012) I was fortunate to catch a ride off someone who had one of these at a classic car show I attended over 20 years ago. Wonderful car with loads of road presence.
2012 Miami Festival of Speed (Oct 17, 2012) Not a fan of matt finishes on the bodywork but this looks soooo good.
FR-S/GT86 the First of Three New Toyota Sportscars (Oct 17, 2012) That 2000 GT looks stunning in red and surprisingly modern looking for a car fast approaching 50 years old.
FR-S/GT86 the First of Three New Toyota Sportscars (Oct 17, 2012) And worth more than any other Japanese car - if you can find one for sale, that is.
Challenger SRT8 Races a Helicopter (Oct 17, 2012) That looked like lots of fun.
VW Microbus Finally Retiring Next Year (Oct 17, 2012) Off a windy cliff maybe...
VW Microbus Finally Retiring Next Year (Oct 17, 2012) This is the only way Richard Hammond has of being taller than Jeremy Clarkson.
Cosworth is Up For Sale (Oct 17, 2012) RS500 were very rare and a good one is worth alot of money.
Cosworth is Up For Sale (Oct 17, 2012) Correct me if I'm wrong but the Peugeot T16 rally car was a turbocharged four cylinder, not a six.
Cosworth is Up For Sale (Oct 17, 2012) It has a full race Cosworth DFV F1 engine in it. Renault did the same thing a few years later with an Espace.
Cadillac ELR Headed for Production (Oct 17, 2012) Great looking car, especially for an electric one. Most end up looking like kitchen appliances.
Vauxhall/Opel Launches Cascada Convertible (Oct 17, 2012) Looks great with the top up or down.

Entry Level Exotics: Lamborghini Gallardo (Oct 16, 2012) Jeez that looks stunning!
Nissan Delivers Juke-R #001 (Oct 16, 2012) @ Justin. From the pics it looks like it has retained the rear seats as opposed to the two development cars, which had exposed roll bars throughout and no rear seats.
Fisker Planning Hybrid SUVs and Yachts (Oct 16, 2012) I prefer the look of the Karma but this is nice.
Fisker Planning Hybrid SUVs and Yachts (Oct 16, 2012) Way better looking than a Ferrari California IMO.
Fisker Planning Hybrid SUVs and Yachts (Oct 16, 2012) That really is a stunning looking car - hybrid or not.
Fisker Planning Hybrid SUVs and Yachts (Oct 16, 2012) I think there's too much going on in the rear of this - too many lines and angles.
Fisker Planning Hybrid SUVs and Yachts (Oct 16, 2012) Lol at Babaloo!
5 Questionable Yugo Commercials (Oct 16, 2012) OMG a Village People tribute act!
5 Questionable Yugo Commercials (Oct 16, 2012) The heated rear window was only ever there to keep your hands warm while you're pushing it.
Nissan Delivers Juke-R #001 (Oct 16, 2012) The Juke-Rs looks have grown on me. That's not to say that I find it good looking but endearingly ugly, like an Austin Healey 'Frog Eye' Sprite.
Nissan Delivers Juke-R #001 (Oct 16, 2012) Alot of money to pay for exclusivity but if you already have a garage full of rare and expensive cars, then why not shell out for one of these? If I recall I think there'll only ever be a maximum of twenty made.
Aston Has Big Plans for Vantage and Rapide (Oct 16, 2012) The best looking car currently on sale IMO.
Audi A1 Ducati Edition (Oct 15, 2012) Very tacky way to cheapen the names of both Audi and Ducati.
Lamborghini Updates 2013 Gallardo Spyder (Oct 15, 2012) @ Sebastian. Agreed. I drove one as a track day present from my then girlfriend and was pretty impressed with the ergonomics and the quality of the interior.
Lamborghini Updates 2013 Gallardo Spyder (Oct 15, 2012) I can kinda see where you're going with the LFA reference. I'm not a fan of the new diagonal bars but I'm sure it'll grow on me over time...
Kicherer Supercharges Mercedes SLS (Oct 15, 2012) Really like the carbon fibre details in the interior.
Kicherer Supercharges Mercedes SLS (Oct 15, 2012) Not digging the front grille. Makes it look like a smiling hump back whale!
Volvo Says Goodbye to the C30 (Oct 15, 2012) I've seen countless American films where the couple or family have an old boxy 200 Series Volvo estate.
Ford Follows Mini Out of WRC (Oct 15, 2012) Love the glowing red hot exhaust.
Nissan GT-R China Edition by Vilner (Oct 15, 2012) Great pic by the way...
Nissan GT-R China Edition by Vilner (Oct 15, 2012) @ Michael. All GT-Rs have rear seats, apart from the Spec V.
Nissan GT-R China Edition by Vilner (Oct 15, 2012) Love the carbon fibre shifter - nice touch.
Nissan GT-R China Edition by Vilner (Oct 15, 2012) Apart from the horrid headlining.
Nissan GT-R China Edition by Vilner (Oct 15, 2012) Nice one, Alex!
Jay Leno Reviews Bugatti Vitesse (Oct 15, 2012) @ Thibault. I agree with you mate but if it were my $2m shelling out on a hypercar, I think I'd probably be more tempted towards the purchase of a Koenigsegg Agera R. Could be swayed either way. Be nice to have that difficult choice though...
Bugatti EB110SS Burns Through Farmland (Oct 14, 2012) ...about the cars and he graciously allowed me to sit in the Supersport. Bear in mind the showroom had a F40, a Strosek Porsche, a couple of Diablos and many other supercars - the EB110s seem to be the rarest and the most exotic of the bunch IMO.
Bugatti EB110SS Burns Through Farmland (Oct 14, 2012) Around 15 years ago I visited a supercar showroom in south London. Tucked away in the back under fitted covers were an EB110 and an EB110 Supersport. One guy owned both of them and luckily for me was there at the time. I got to chat with him...
Bentley W12 Can Offer Much More Than 625 HP (Oct 14, 2012) How about a Supersport GT3 for the road?
BMW 3 GT Spied in Light Camo (Oct 14, 2012) Most cars look like that when they're travelling through der Karusell.
4 Slope-Ready Supercars and Special Editions (Oct 14, 2012) With the amount of lightweight carbon fibre fitted to the car, 417lb ft of torque should prove ample enough to get that lot up a slippery slope.
Chris Harris Drives the Spa Six Hours (Oct 13, 2012) Damn right, Jason.
Grand Touring Icons: Lamborghini 350GT/400GT (Oct 13, 2012) Surely 11,000 rpm in a road car is a misprint...?
Leno Hosts the Boss of All Mustangs (Oct 12, 2012) @ Johnny. It looks like a R35 GT-R, especially if you look at the shape and detailing of the front wing.
BMW 1 Series Coupe Gets M5's V10 (Oct 12, 2012) You're a lucky guy, Cassius.
