Earlier this month I talked about needing a station wagon to haul around he who will be the newest addition to our little family. Station wagon, estate, touring, shooting brake… these all make sense to me.. Barring some shift in oil prices or the further breakdown of Minnesota roads, I won’t be driving an SUV [...]

Life is all about change. When I was young and single I had small cars that fit my life. Rather, I could fit my life into small cars. I could cram almost everything I owned into my 1985 Honda Prelude. Later, when it was just me and the wife, we had cars like a Dinan-modified [...]

The 2010 Edmonton Motor Show was this past weekend, in case you forgot to look at your calendar. As you would expect, CarEnvy was there in full force. Ok, so it was just me and a few friends, but at least someone went. The show was noticeably smaller than in years past. Almost depressingly so. [...]

Can you believe it’s already been a year since our inaugural COTY awards? Well it’s true. Last year at this time, we sat down and drew up an 8-category competition of the year’s best new cars. The category winners were as diverse as Apple’s App Store but only one car could walk away with the overall [...]

Earlier this week we took a look at a video review from Autocar UK comparing the GT-R, the R8 V10, and the new 997.5 Turbo. Now we’ve also got a splendid collection of photography to go along with it. Nothing quite like a perfect photograph of a bulgingly brutal supercar, innit eh? Take particular note [...]

Yes, it’s a sketchy-quality photograph of a blurry photograph, but when it caught my eye I immediately lusted after it like the Germans lusted after lebensraum in the 1930′s, even though I had absolutely no clue what it was. After a bit of Googley research, I found that, somewhat fittingly, it was a French-Russian designer [...]
