This is a new one for me. The Lexus ES250. I suppose this has something to do with my age, something to do with the length of time I’ve been following cars, and something to do with this car only being produced for 3 years, but older Lexuses are a bit foreign to me. No [...]

Fuel economy. Something I never, ever, thought I would care about when it came to sports car ownership. “It just comes with the territory, so it’s no big deal”, I told myself. Err, no. Thirteen point one. That’s all the 350 managed on its last tank of premium, in L/100km. Not too swell. That works out [...]

Saturday, June 6th from 1pm to 10pm at the Mayfield Trade Centre (in Edmonton AB). That’s what you need to copy and paste into iCal. Why? DRIVEN 2009. What is this DRIVEN thingy all about?

Last time we checked up on our favourite gay car blog, Stick Shift, Brett Berk interviewed C&D Editor Eddie Alterman. That’s [...]

Sometimes these How Hard Can It Be? pieces write themselves. You see the desiccated remains of Jaguar or a 1920s Dodge sedan and the words just starts flowing like a river of boogers during a literary sinus infection. Some are more difficult, especially when there is an emotional tie to the subject matter, as happened [...]

He’s baaaaaaack…or he might be, anyway. Given how much is currently up in the air in the wide world of Formula One, another piece of speculation on what’s upcoming should be viewed as just that: rampant speculation. Still, you’ll want to follow the jump to find out what those current rumours are.

I don’t like people who can’t park, but I loathe people who choose not to park well. Guess who ran into a BMW X6 (of all things) across two parking spots in a full lot today? [xkcd]

See? Even kids love the 959. So you know it’s good. The scary thing is that this kid doesn’t know one important fact: this car could eat him in a single bite. [Photo credit: Frank Filipponio/Weblogs, Inc]
