Increasingly, teenagers are forgoing licenses altogether until they're 18 or 19. And, as we're...

| Today at High Gear Media: 2012 Dodge Viper, Paris and Detroit Posted: 16 Sep 2010 02:00 PM PDT  Five cars are on the endangered list: won't you help them find a home at least, before they're extinct? [TheCarConnection] On the flip side, these five cars are selling so well, you probably won't get any discounts on them. [TheCarConnection] We're telling you know, Bluetooth audio streaming is a passing fad. Droid fanboys, brace yourselves...

| Frugal Shopper: A New Mercedes-Benz At Ten-Percent Off Sticker? Posted: 16 Sep 2010 01:02 PM PDT  If you're a longtime admirer of the three-pointed star, this might be the right time to head to the showroom with some serious intent.

| Posted: 16 Sep 2010 12:24 PM PDT  Every year, a few more cars make their way to the automotive graveyard. When the recession began, frankly, we got misty-eyed at some of the cars that met an untimely end. With Americans cutting back on spending, automakers were forced to cut achingly beautiful roadsters like the Saturn Sky and track-day whippets like the Honda S2000 -- cars you'd...

| Posted: 16 Sep 2010 10:47 AM PDT  Buying a new car? Working on your negotiating skills? This month, it won't take much to talk down the price of most cars--especially the 2010 models still on the lot. Dealers are still facing slower sales than they had prepared for, and they're willing to talk. Except when they aren't. Our pricing partners at TrueCar.com looked at the final price...

| 2010 Paris Auto Show Preview: Chevrolet's Four World Premieres Posted: 16 Sep 2010 10:31 AM PDT  Chevy will be hitting Paris hard this year, bringing four new world premieres to the floor. Of the four, only the 2012 Aveo is expected for the U.S., though we can lust after the mostly-attractive Cruze five-door hatch from afar. The 2012 Chevrolet Aveo, which we last spied in sedan form in July, will be shown in hatchback trim for the global...

| One In Four Shoppers Uses Facebook, Twitter To Choose Next Ride. Do Automakers Know That? Posted: 16 Sep 2010 08:33 AM PDT  People discuss lots of stuff on social networks. Grandchildren. Farmville. Cat videos. But they also discuss the world of commerce -- what they like, what they're buying, and what they try to avoid.
