2023 Civic Type R: Thoughts from a former FK8 owner on the new hotness
/
/
comments
Honda has let one of their most prolific engineers build the last purely internal combustion powered sports car from the brand’s 30-year history of Type R, and when you look past the spec sheet you’ll find a brilliant car that will remind you why you became a car enthusiast. The Honda Civic Type R is…

2023 Lexus IS 350 AWD F SPORT

comments
I was going to start this review of the latest Lexus IS 350 by pining about my lust for the original IS 300, but then I remembered something. I already wrote about that back in the Autotrader dot com slash Oversteer days. In fact, that article was inspired by a then recent purchase of a…

The Ford Lightning is electric and excellent in truck form
/
/
comments
I love the Ford Lightning… it’s excellent, quick, comfortable, and behaves like the pickup truck that it is. Sure, it’s pretty damn pricey – but so are all trucks these days, and this one rips. Now I just need one with a slight lift, all-terrain tires, and a GoFastCamper in the back, and I’d be…

2023 Genesis GV60 Performance – A compact luxury EV with a boost button
/
/
comments
Genesis (and Hyundai-Kia generally) are absolutely killing it lately, I drove the G70, G80, and G90 over the past year. And, oddly enough I just realized I did those reviews in numerical order, but that’s not the point. They were all fantastic sedans with a great mix of sport and luxury. It’s clear that Genesis…

GMC Hummer EV – Electric Monster Machine
/
/
comments
The GMC Hummer EV is a physics-defying electric monster machine. It weighs over 9,000 pounds yet can run from 0-60 mph in under 3.5 seconds. It’s big, heavy, stupid… and an absolute blast to drive. Disclaimer: GMC tossed us the keys to the Hummer EV and included a full charge on the battery pack.

2022 Hyundai Tucson PHEV Limited AWD

comments
I’ll admit, I get a little tired of crossovers. Looking through my 2022 press loan review list, just over 1/3 were crossovers. It’s not that they are boring, it’s that they are all so good that it is becoming harder and harder to differentiate them. And no, I don’t mean that they all look alike.…

2022 Mazda CX-30 Premium – Review
/
/
comments
Automobile sizes are incredibly relative from country to country, or at least from continent to continent. When I was in Germany recently, around the holidays, I was reminded of just how compact some “family cars” are. What we consider small works for a family of four, or even five, overseas. The Mazda CX-30 was built…

2023 Toyota GR Supra 3.0 Premium (manual!)

comments
Life is unpredictable, a wise man once said that it’s like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get, or when you’re going to get it. My last road-trip review of the 4Runner TRD Pro alluded to some significant life changes on the horizon for me. That trip was important for…

This GR Corolla is a wicked BLAST of a machine!
/
/
comments
It’s rare that a new car excites me these days, but the GR Corolla has done that in a big way. This feels like a rally-ready homologation special, and I love it. It helps that I’m driving the Morizo Edition too, which gets more aggressive gearing, drops some weight, and feels ready for anything.
