		<description><![CDATA[
I have always had a soft spot for the post-war late 40s Detroit automobile look which looked eerily like the pre-war early 40s Detroit look. You can’t send Cadillacs into combat zones and DeSotos made poor amphibious assault vehicles, so Detroit became lead manufacturer for the war effort in 1941. Forget cars, the free world [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
The impressive 2010 Taurus made quite a few fans at the Don’t Call It The Detroit Auto Show, myself included.  Ford’s new bull represents a solid vote of confidence in the concept of premium domestic-maker sedans, and it just might be the right car to make that idea work. Still, I can’t help but [...]]]></description>

It’s ironic that on the same day Sajeev’s memory was jogged about driving one of the last built, dealer-lot-fermented Mercury Montegos in existence two years ago, I was piloting one of the last known Hertz-o-riffic Mercury Sables into its twilight.  Again. Finally.

“Life’s too short to buy the same car twice,” I always say. As the owner of a 2002 Mustang, I figured it would be my last example of the stallion. It’s not that I dislike the car, but I still haven’t checked “German” off my automotive ownership list and I’m dying to do it soon. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Car manufacturers are toast! At least, that&#8217;s what members of the Electric Vehicle (EV) religion believe. A car maker&#8217;s core business is engines&#8212;but engines are over, they say. It&#8217;s 1910 all over again, and internal-combustion cars are going the way of the horse-drawn carriage. But I say: Wrong! The electric Twingo I drove proves that [...]]]></description>

What&#8217;s the deal with these small cars and their self-righteous names? I&#8217;m talking about the Smart, the iQ, and the Think. Does anybody really believe that making a car diminutive turns it into some kind of Einstein? If anything, I&#8217;d be happy if car makers showed they understand they have some really stupid machines out [...]]]></description>

In order to show visiting US Air Force Academy cadets the wonders of Europe, I ditched my Carrera, whose back seats are merely a nice gesture, for a lumbering Mercedes-Benz GLK.

I love the way the Volkswagen CC looks. It&#8217;s a perfectly proportioned pastiche of everything I admire about BMW, Mercedes and Audi design. The CC is as handsome as the priced-to-fail Phaeton, only more so. Inside, the seats alone are worth the price of admission: firm yet endlessly supportive. The CC&#8217;s toy count is high, [...]]]></description>

The magic and deadly mystery of the Porsche 911 is simply this: take a wooden baseball bat, preferably one of those thirty-five-ounce Louisville Sluggers like McGwire might have swung, hold your palm out, place the thin end of the bat there, and balance it vertically by moving your hand back and forth.

200km/h ticked by on the digital speedo and I was still pressed into the sports seats. 230km/h flashed by, and the scenery of autobahn, cars, and trees started to blur. 260km/h rolled by and I started to think &#8220;Holy hell!&#8221;.

For the past 60 years or so, Fiat has had what amounted to a compulsive gambler&#8217;s business model: invest tons in one single car, cross fingers that it sells like hotcakes, and run the rest of the company with disinterest. This one-pony strategy has often delivered  what, in the end, were the most desirable small [...]]]></description>

I had every intention of taking a Lincoln MKS for a spin. I couldn&#8217;t do it. The MKS dodging tumbleweeds in the showroom was ugly as sin and as cheap as chips. &#8220;Cheap&#8221; as in poorly designed and executed. The Monroney for Lincoln&#8217;s front wheel-drive, V6 flagship added up a bunch of numbers knocking on forty large. [...]]]></description>

For most American enthusiasts, the Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 will always live in the shadow of the mighty E30 M3. Although Mercedes was first to the sixteen-valve party, the US variant of the &#8220;Cosworth Benz&#8221; was slower, more expensive and infinitely more staid-looking than the iconic four-cylinder Bimmer. History&#8217;s verdict regarding the two cars is written [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
When a car salesman tells you an expensive model&#8217;s pointless, nine times out of ten, it&#8217;s pointless. If he proffers this opinion in the depths of a recession, with new car sales lower than Bernie Madoff&#8217;s morals, it&#8217;s a dead cert. I&#8217;ve experienced this vehicular vertigo twice in the last week. First, when contemplating a [...]]]></description>

Driving Lexus&#8217; top-of-the-line luxobarge, I couldn&#8217;t figure out why I liked it. Seriously. The LS600h L is everything I don&#8217;t like about a car: huge, heavy, amorphous, numb, floaty-drifty and over-complicated. And yet&#8230; there was something subconsciously seductive about the big rig. I asked my step-daughter Sasha why she&#8217;d taken a shine to the world&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our illustrious Editor-in-Chief predicts the death of the manual transmission. The &#8220;stick-shift is toast,&#8221; Farago says, in his own special way. I disagree. If you want to go fast, get a paddle shift automated manual, a la Nissan GT-R. Time and again, the little levers have proven to be the fastest way to get around [...]]]></description>

Uncle hadn&#8217;t driven a stick shift in 30 years but had just  bought a new Cadillac, so he goes back to the dealer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[60 Minutes nearly killed Audi in North America. After “Unintended Acceleration in the Audi 5000” aired in 1986, Audi sales dropped from 74k sales a year in 1986 to less than 12k by 1991. Sales remained constant until 1996, when Audi debuted a car that would finally tackle the BMW 3-series and the Mercedes C-Class [...]]]></description>
