Building beautiful vehicles is something that Buick has always been known for. Since its founding in 1899 by David Dunbar Buick and Walter L. Marr, Buick has stood for quality, a value the brand has upheld for over a century. Today’s Buick is known for a lineup of amazing SUVs; responsible for vehicles such as […]
We’ve written a little bit before about the power and significance of nostalgia—how the bittersweet emotion connects us to the past while keeping us grounded in the present and motivated for the future. Sometimes, however, the objects of our nostalgic affection take on the same kind of redshift that the James Webb Space Telescope was […]
Most of us can definitely agree that the cars of the past just don’t look anything like what we have now. The big clunkers of days gone by have been phased out and replaced with sleek, aerodynamic vehicles. Some models have stayed pretty close to the same, despite these upgrades. Most of us can pick […]
Watching Back to the Future as a kid, my focus wasn’t on Marty McFly, his family, or the time travel aspect of the story. Instead, I was mesmerized by the vehicle that Doc Brown transformed into a time machine, provided it reached 88 mph. The DeLorean became a favorite with me, and I mourned the […]
This spring, Lexus announced an electric alternative to the next-generation RX called RZ. Built on the same platform as the co-developed Subaru Solterra and Toyota bZ4X, there is much about the RZ to generate interest. However, perhaps nothing is drawing more attention than the optional One Grip Steering control system. The pictures show, and the […]
Dozens of classic car shows take place around the country every year. And even unofficial “shows” take place at diners and drive-ins on weekends when owners of gorgeous vintage cars meet up to show off and discuss their rides. Entire social groups are formed around the owners of vintage vehicles. It’s not uncommon for a […]
If you search “Honda Accord for sale” online, you may find anything from a 1970s two-door hatchback to a brand-new commuter-friendly hybrid. It’s safe to say that this is a model that has changed quite a bit since its original debut over 40 years ago. Unless you’re looking for an old fixer-upper, you’re probably more […]
If you quickly read that headline and thought this will be about the use of a Honda Accord in the Transformers universe, then I’m sorry to disappoint. For one thing, I’m not aware of any character that’s ever turned into an Accord (though one version of Rumble did have him change into a Honda Civic […]
The history of Mitsubishi is a surprisingly complicated and lengthy tale that encompasses world history and the way in which Japan has developed and radically changed over the last 150 years. While Mitsubishi Motors is only about 50 years old, if you start looking at the larger Mitsubishi Group, then you get into a much […]
Once in a while, a car so special comes along that it parks right in the heart of the automotive zeitgeist. Very few models manage to not only sell well and evolve over decades but earn their way into coveted collector’s item status. One such car became the epitome of American muscle. Step foot onto […]
You may have seen one around town, especially since it’s been on the scene since the late 1970s. Or you may recall being mystified by it on the silver screen in the chart-topping Fast & Furious franchise. The Toyota Supra has been stirring up thrills for decades, but if you thought it’s always been an […]
The year is 1991, and a distinctive orange and green sports car pulls up to the starting line at the Circuit de la Sarthe, home of the gruelling 24 Hours of Le Mans auto race. The infamous track had long been a testing ground for cutting-edge automotive technology, and the 1991 race was to be […]
What do a pair of Catholic priests, a demonic spirit, and a Chevy dealer have in common? It’s all in the name. The Exorcist is a staple among film fans as the 1973 horror flick tells the tale of a mother who seeks the help of Catholic priests to rid her daughter of demonic possession. […]
I may be alone here, but I imagine that there’s at least one other science fiction fan like me browsing the offerings at a used car dealership. They may not be able to buy the spacecraft of their dreams, but the next best thing would be a car that resembles a rocket ship in some […]
As automakers work to keep abreast of changing consumer tastes and market conditions, models are always coming in and out of the lineup. While certain offerings, like the all-time best-selling Ford F-150, are untouchable, few other models are immune. When it comes to searching the inventory at a Ford dealership near you, the biggest change […]
When it comes down to whether or not a car is fun to drive, there are a few different considerations. How much torque it gets, how the interior feels, and what infotainment features are available all affect how much fun a car is to drive. However, if you really want to know how enjoyable a […]
At some point in life, I feel like everyone has a favorite sports car and dreams about what it would be like to take that car for a spin, preferably on the Autobahn. When I was little, my dream car was the Ford Mustang. As I got older, I tended more toward European brands like […]
It’s no secret that Dodge possesses a long-lasting lineage of performance, power, and prestige. While Ford and Chevrolet have certainly become the most associated with the rise of the American automobile, Dodge predates them both, getting its start building automotive components back in 1900. Since then, a wide variety of vehicles have crisscrossed the highways […]
Ah, the Corvette. It’s the image of cool. It’s appeared in films such as Gone in 60 Seconds, The Big Lebowski, and Con Air. It’s practically synonymous with classic American film and TV moments. If you knew someone with a Corvette when you were a kid, that person was probably your hero. Everyone in the […]
If you’ve been considering an upgrade in your driving life––to, say, a high-performance sports car––you won’t have to hold out too much longer. The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla is about to motor into the U.S., and it’s an impressive performer. Originally scheduled to be a 2022 model release, the GR Corolla’s production was held up, […]
