On Nürburgring, the Porsche 918 Spyder can rampage the track in just 6:57 minutes. This amazing feat is despite a rather small 4.6-liter engine, and a set of electric motors. I am, of course, belittling the potential of minimal cubic inches and electric motors, while peering through a dusty pair of yellow goggles. The reality […]
The XE May Be a Poor Man’s Jaguar, But It has Expensive Potential
September 9, 2014 by
When is the last time you judged something purely by its cover? Well, if you’re guilty of that with the upcoming Jaguar XE, I would bet that you will find it a pretty good car. Allow me to rephrase that and say, a damn good car. The problem with the failure of the Jaguar X-Type […]
911 Porsche Carrera GT – The Modern Classic
August 8, 2014 by
It may seem odd to call the 911 Porsche Carrera GT modern, considering that is was first unveiled back in the early part of the 2000s. However, by most every sense of the word–it was, and still is. Designed with a monocoque carbon fiber shell, titanium rods, stainless steel exhaust, and six-speed transmission, the Carrera […]
All Revved Up – Lexus RC F
August 7, 2014 by
The release date for the Lexus RC F is the fourth quarter of 2014, which puts us very near game time. So far what we know about it is that it will not be a difficult luxury sports car to miss. If it doesn’t happen to catch your eye by its domed hood, large grille, […]

Harley Davidson Livewire Electric Motorcycle
June 20, 2014 by
Harley Davidson, who is known for its rumbling bikes appears to be shifting gears (pun intended). Electric vehicles are our future (like it or not), so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Harley is starting to gently test the waters with what is currently being called the Livewire. To the most hardcore Harley fans, […]
Dudepins Roundup – Beard is the Tip Of the Iceberg
May 23, 2014 by
Brought to you by our friends at Dudepins. The basic thing a man should know is how to change a tire and how to drive a tractor. Whatever that bearded dude is doing on the Dos Equis beer commercials sets the bar. That’s your guy. Every man should be aiming to be like him. The beard […]
2014 Audi RS7 Vs 2014 Porsche Panamera Turbo
May 17, 2014 by
The Porsche Panamera used to be the only super sedan worth your time if you wanted something fast, practical, and nimble. Then… along came the Audi RS7, who poked its head out of the sand and said, Look at me. We hardly noticed. Hey, I have four doors and am pretty dang fast, the Audi […]
2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport Vs 2013 Lexus GS350 F Sport
May 11, 2014 by
It has been suggested that most 4-door sedans were designed to be familiar and comfortable. However, this description certainly does not apply to either the 2013 Lexus GS F Sport or 2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport. These two luxury sedans represent the answer to the question, Can high performance also be practical and luxurious? The only question […]
Mystery of the Phantom Car
April 17, 2014 by
Top Gear discovered this dashcam video yesterday, and after about 15 minutes of using the laws of practicality to explain the mystery behind the car that comes out of nowhere, I have settled on the fact that it must be a phantom automobile. If anyone out there has a better explanation, we welcome it in […]
