| Posted: 31 Jan 2013 12:10 PM PST  The Jaguar F-Type will be the brand's first true sportscar in more than a generation when it goes on sale in 2013. Drawing its inspiration from Jaguar's heritage, but based firmly in the brand's most modern design and technology, the F-Type promises to deliver a sporting edge that has been absent in all but the most exclusive R and RS-badged...      |
| Posted: 31 Jan 2013 12:04 PM PST  As Nissan's flagship sports car, the GT-R is not just impressive--it's demonstrative of what can be done with modern technology and engineering. Its unique looks aren't the traditional long-hood layout you'll find in a Chevrolet Corvette or SRT Viper, or even the mid/rear-engine sleekness of the Porsche 911, yet it competes with all of these...   |
| Posted: 31 Jan 2013 11:51 AM PST  As Scion's first foray into the world of legitimate, rear-wheel-drive sports coupes, the FR-S marks a significant step for the brand. Pairing a raked, modern exterior with a minimalist interior, and a Subaru-developed flat-four-cylinder engine, the FR-S promises to reinvigorate the youth-targeted brand and win new converts. There aren't many true...   |
| Posted: 31 Jan 2013 11:47 AM PST  The Cadillac CTS is something of a conundrum: mid-sized, available in rear- or all-wheel drive, and close in space and size to the BMW 5-Series, Audi A6, or Mercedes-Benz E Class, the CTS is priced closer to the BMW 3-Series, Mercedes-Benz C Class, and Audi A4. The CTS succeeded the Catera, a blandly styled sedan about the same size that, while...   |
| Posted: 31 Jan 2013 11:22 AM PST  Audi might still be better known for its quattro (all-wheel drive) sport sedans, but the Audi R8 is closing in on that reputation, with true supercar looks and performance. Wrapped with a body that's an artful blend of German technophile cues, and fitted with racing shoes borrowed from fellow Volkswagen Group brand Lamborghini, the R8 has become...   |
| Posted: 31 Jan 2013 11:10 AM PST  Iconically American, the Chevrolet Corvette is a two-seat sports car available as a coupe or a convertible, that has offered even higher-performance variants than the base car, including the Z06, 427, and ZR1. The previous sixth-generation (C6) Corvette set new benchmarks for the capabilities of a relatively affordable street-legal sports car, but...   |
| Tesla And Fisker Chat, Toyota Recall, Apple's Siri Eyes Free: Today's Car News Posted: 31 Jan 2013 08:00 AM PST  Today at The Car Connection, Toyota recalled over a million vehicles, and Honda's going to implement Apple's Siri Eyes Free system in future vehicles. Fisker hired a consultant to help conserve cash, and Audi promised to have autonomous cars on the road in this decade. All this and more in today's car news, right here on The Car Connection. Kia...   |
| Posted: 30 Jan 2013 06:03 PM PST  There's nothing else quite in the U.S. vehicle market quite like the Mazda 5. It's a compact minivan, with seating for six and sliding rear doors. Because of its compact dimensions compared with other minivans, it can appear as a seven-eighths-scale minivan. Yet from the driver's seat you'll find that the Mazda 5 handles and maneuvers like a small...   |
| Posted: 30 Jan 2013 05:02 PM PST  The Mazda3 stands as one of the best small-car picks on the market for those who don't always see their car as just an appliance. Even with the likes of the Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra GT, and Dodge Dart all providing a sportier flavor than the typical frugal compact car, the compact Mazda Mazda3 model, offered as a four-door sedan or a five-door...   |
