When people say entry level supercar, they are usually referring to a car like the Ferrari 488, the Lamborghini Huracan, or something slightly slower like a McLaren 570s. The problem here is that these cars aren’t “entry level” at all. The Huracan starts at $200,000. The 488 starts at $250,000. Even the notably cheap R8 starts … Continue reading Autonoch – The Real Entry Level: Alpine A110 vs Alfa Romeo 4C

Used Review: 2015 Audi S7
Last weekend I finally got my chance to get behind the wheel of some real German power. I’ve gotta say, I am incredibly impressed. As the title implies, this was obviously a four year old pre-owned model that I got to drive, but it still felt brand new. Everything on the interior felt like it … Continue reading Used Review: 2015 Audi S7

Toyota’s Performance Renaissance?
Everyone probably remembers back to the dark times of Toyota. Gone were the days of fun cars like the Supra and MR2, with monuments to boring practicality, such as the Matrix and every updated Prius, being rolled out to replace your excited gasps with yawns of pure disappointment. However, since the launch of the GT86/FR-S … Continue reading Toyota’s Performance Renaissance?
Used Review: 2015 Volkswagen Golf R
So, I finally got my hands on what some would consider the pinnacle of hot hatches. After getting some time behind the wheel, it is really easy for me to see why the Golf R receives all the hype it does. The model I drove only had about 40,000 miles on the clock, so it … Continue reading Used Review: 2015 Volkswagen Golf R

Everyone knows of the little hot hatches, and if you’re into performance driving, you’ve probably owned/driven one at some point. It kinda makes sense that most driving enthusiasts will have experience … Continue reading For Newer Enthusiasts – Hot Hatches are Practicality Meeting Performance
The Last Prelude
Now to get started with complete transparency, I've owned a 5th gen, so I might be a tiny bit biased. The "Lude"(as I knew it) was black, everything was stock and the engine lasted all the way up to 180,000 miles. To be fair, that's nothing for a Honda, but this thing lived a hard … Continue reading The Last Prelude
Seventh Gen Thunderbird: Nobody’s Favorite
Everyone has a favorite generation of their favorite car. It widely varies from person to person and car to car, but there is one thing that I’m fairly sure is constant.
