About 20 minutes. And probably without once applying the brakes.

I did well with my recent 1986 Porsche 928S purchase. The car is clean and rust-free with 90,000 miles and had $30,000 in upgrades and maintenance in the last 2 1/2 years. Still, in less than a month, I have had repair and maintenance bills of over $3,000. I love the car and I know I am just *this* close to having a

What do we call Toyota’s ever-deepening ties with Mazda?

Any Lexus LS under 75,000 miles.

This is very long forum post about leaking capacitors, but it may be helpful.

My first windshield was six years ago and cost about $700 at my then-local dealer. The second one was about two months ago at a different local dealer and I was shocked at the $1600 bill. And my A7 does not have the options like adaptive cruise control that would require a “calibration” when replacing the windshield.

I have had great reliability from my 2012 A7 as well and really enjoy owning and driving the car. I had to have a broken wire behind the front bumper repaired (some electronic systems were acting odd) and a stuck-closed thermostat was replaced. That required a tow to a dealer while out of town on vacation. We had an

I wasn’t expecting to be impressed by the new Corvette, but I am.  Having owned a Boxster, Cayman S and now a recent 911 I think it is great to have a lower priced option that will probably be a lot less expensive to maintain (excluding tires) than anything from Porsche.  For some buyers, like my wife, a Corvette just

The Tiguan was a ‘16 or ‘17.

People prefer the Tiguan over a SportWagen? Do they even test drive these things? I had Tiguan for a week while on vacation in Hawaii and it was the least satisfying and most uncomfortable vehicle I have ever rented. Yes, it was even worse than a clapped out Dodge Avenger.  So sad VW. 

Slap on some John Player Special logos and let’s go racing!

Instant torque and not constantly flipping between 7th and 8th gear on the highway are two of the reasons I stepped up from an A4 Avant to an A7 a few years ago. My fuel economy with the V6 S (no turbo) has been right at 23 mpg for 90,000 miles.  Not bad at all.

Owners of the 17 or so manual Cayennes must be very happy with their choice right about now.

Oh, I practice small batch, artisanal coding with a focus on sustainability with a low carbon footprint.  I should be sure to remind my boss of this.

Agreed.  The old “a better car, but not a better Miata” observation.

With only 10 months to go it would be a good time to start prepping for Moab 2020.

2nd & 3rd Gear: Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, Ram, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Renault, Nissan, Mitsubishi. Not one thing in their combined portfolios appeals to me.

I am waiting for the call from a neighbor who wants to sell her 93-year old mother’s Buick Park Avenue.  The old gal just doesn’t want to sell yet even though she no longer has a license...
