| 2013 New York Auto Show Preview Posted: 25 Mar 2013 12:29 PM PDT  New York City isn't the first place you think of when you think of car lovers. About half its residents don’t even own a car. Still, the city’s annual auto show is one of the most important on the automotive calendar, and it's the oldest in the country. The first New York Auto Show was held in 1900, seven years before the first one in...      |
| Acura TSX Recalled For Potential Engine Stall Problem Posted: 25 Mar 2013 11:37 AM PDT  Honda is recalling certain 2004 through 2008 model year Acura TSX sedans originally sold or registered in “salt-belt” states for a potential engine stall problem. A notice on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website puts the number of vehicles potentially affected in the U.S. at 76,253. Vehicles affected by...   |
| Nearly One-Third Of Car Buyers Opting For 72-Month Loans Posted: 25 Mar 2013 10:55 AM PDT  Rising auto prices may be a contributing reason why a record number of consumers are going into longer car loans. According to market research by J. D. Power and Associates, nearly one-third (32 percent) of car buyers taking out loans this month opted for 72-month terms. This is up some 30 percent from the same period one year ago. The typical car...   |
| Ford Apologizes For Ad Featuring Paris Hilton & Bound, Gagged Kardashians Posted: 25 Mar 2013 08:30 AM PDT  Ford's thoughtful approach to marketing yields huge dividends. Its "Fiesta Movement" campaign, for example, remains the yardstick by which other social media forays are measured. But that doesn't mean that Ford and its numerous agency partners are infallible. Sometimes, mistakes are made, leaving Ford to backtrack, as it's currently doing for a...   |
| Aston Martin Rapide S Reviewed, Lexus IS Driven, Ford Apologized: Car News Headlines Posted: 25 Mar 2013 08:30 AM PDT  Today at The Car Connection, we reviewed the new 2014 Aston Martin Rapide S and took a drive in the new 2014 Lexus IS. Photos of the new 2014 Cadillac CTS leaked onto the Internet and drinking coffee might help reduce your chances of getting into a car accident. All this and more in today's car news, right here on The Car Connection. Tesla Motors...   |
| Google Glass: Not Yet Available, But Possibly Banned In West Virginia Posted: 25 Mar 2013 07:30 AM PDT  We've all heard about Google Glass, we've all seen it, we all know (vaguely) what it's capable of doing. And that has encouraged one state legislator in West Virginia to propose banning Google Glass for drivers long before the device goes on sale. Like many Americans, Republican Gary G. Howell has seen the video clips and news reports about Google...   |
| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 04:00 AM PDT  Aston Martin has a longstanding reputation for turning out some of the world's top grand-touring sports cars, and the 2014 Rapide S is no exception—even though it does have four doors. Far more faithful to sports-car athleticism than to the luxury-sedan hints it may drop, the new Rapide S—replacing the former Rapide in the...   |
| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 04:00 AM PDT  For many years now, the Volkswagen Jetta has been VW's best-selling car in the U.S. The compact four-door sedan is built on the same underpinnings as the Golf compact hatchback--VW's mainstay worldwide. But with U.S. buyers preferring sedans, and the Jetta being carefully priced in the heart of the compact segment (thanks to assembly in Mexico)...   |
| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 03:45 AM PDT  The Toyota Corolla compact sedan was the car, after the Volkswagen Beetle, that forever altered what U.S. shoppers came to expect from a small car--and turned Toyota from a small Japanese automaker into a tough competitor for General Motors and Volkswagen. GM lost two-thirds of its market share from 1970 to 2010, and Toyota's Corolla was one of...   |
| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 03:30 AM PDT  The Mazda Mazda6 competes at the very sportiest end of the mid-size sedan segment, and it appeals to drivers who want a lithe, sporty personality but still need to accommodate practical family needs and may have a limited budget. The successor to the previous Mazda 626 sedan model, the Mazda6 has grown in size over the years but actually lost...   |
| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 03:15 AM PDT  Of the many vehicles in the compact crossover segment, the Nissan Rogue is among the most car-like. It's effectively a new-era wagon, with few pretenses at any kind of off-road capability and little of the aggressive styling of the sport-utility vehicles that spawned the category 15 years ago. The Rogue was launched as a 2008 model, and the 2013...   |
| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 03:00 AM PDT  The Toyota RAV4 was one of the first compact crossovers to enter the U.S. market, and it has been among the best-selling vehicles in that segment ever since. For 2013, a new and redesigned fourth-generation RAV4 was launched at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show, replacing the version that ran for seven years from 2006 to 2012. That new 2013 Toyota...   |
