    I already know I love the Land Rover Defender, but that ratchets up a bit when you swap in V8 power. This is the Defender 90 V8 and there’s a big-ole 5.0-liter V8 between the front fenders. It’s supercharged and makes 518 horsepower and 461 lb-ft of torque. And it puts all that power to…

    The 2022 Subaru WRX is the first WRX on the automaker’s new global platform, and it really helps the car shine. This WRX has a great chassis, strong engine, exciting steering, and an excellent interior. And if you want the most exciting version you …have to get it with a CVT? Oh well, the non-GT…

    This car here is nearly perfect; the 2022 Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS is everything you could want in a sports car while keeping it extremely livable on a daily basis. The GTS is typically my favorite trim in any Porsche model line, and it’s no exception in the 911 family. Add in the Targa…

    You take a Superformance MkIII Cobra and you swap the mighty 427 V8 under the hood for some batteries and an electric motor, and what do you get? You get the absolutely wicked and insane E-Cobra. And I’m here to tell you that it’s the wildest thing I’ve driven. Do I prefer the rumble of…

    wanted this one to be really good, and the driving experience of the 2022 Volkswagen GTI is good. The exterior style is nice, the new display screens look great, and the price is still good for what you get here. But the user experience with the infotainment is rather poor… and that is a big…

    The roads north of Sonoma, California are a wonderful place to test pretty much any vehicle. It’s a greener part of California as the hills look healthy with growth. You are surrounded by some of the best wineries on the planet. The people seem happy. And the roads twist and turn around gorgeous hills that…

    Have you thought about the Mercedes-Benz CLS450 in a while? It’s okay if you haven’t. I’m curious if Mercedes itself is thinking about it. The vehicle as it sits today is totally fine. But when the rest of your lineup exists in or is moving towards a zone of stellar awesome, fine doesn’t cut it.…

    The Mercedes-Maybach GLS600 is a less useful GLS, but it is damn nice on the inside and super smooth out on the road. I logged a ton of miles in this one, and here’s what I found. Disclaimer: Mercedes tossed us the keys to this GLS600 and included a tank of fuel.

    This is an all-electric performance sports wagon and it’s awesome; meet the 2022 Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo! If I had to find fault with the 590 horsepower wonder wagon, it’s that I can’t afford to put one in my garage. Otherwise, I’m absolutely in love with this thing. [Disclaimer: Porsche put me up in…

    Remember a few years back when I had a 2000 Honda Civic Si? I really enjoyed that car. It remains one of my favorite front-driver cars out there. There have been a few iterations of the Civic Si since then and in fact, Honda has just revealed the latest version. It’s based on the new…
