So here I thought last week’s car had lots of toys and gizmos — the Cadillac CTS certainly did have a lot, but the new Volvo XC70 is trying to outdo it this week with safety features and toys to keep this techno-geek amused. More…

Completely redesigned for 2008, the new Cadillac CTS has been causing a lot of people to take notice of GM and Cadillac. For me personally, the new CTS was one of the few releases at last year’s Detroit auto show that I was looking forward to driving to see how much better it really was. More…

It has been almost exactly one year since I reviewed the 2007 Suzuki SX4; Suzuki has now introduced the 2008 Suzuki SX4 Sedan for those that are not so keen on hatchbacks, and it is quite a looker for a small car. Year after year, car after car, I keep saying compact / economy cars are no longer the penalty boxes they used to be, and the SX4 Sedan reinforces this statement once again. More…

After a short hiatus of sorts I am back with another car. This time, something a little sporty in nature yet still reasonable on the pocket book: the much debated and perhaps anticipated 2008 Honda Civic Si Sedan. Originally, rumours had this car as only being available in the U.S., but Honda has decided to bring it to Canada. More…

I was lucky enough to have the opportunity recently to drive a vehicle that is not sold in Canada. The iCar is produced by Mitsubishi for the Japanese and European market. To a lot of Canadians it might resemble a smart car, but it differs in many key areas, the most obvious one is the amount of doors it sports. More…

Interesting weather we have here in Canada; two days ago I had the air conditioning running in the car and in my home; today I have the heat on in the car and just closed up the house nice and tight. I haven’t had a test vehicle with heated seats in a while, or if I have I certainly didn’t feel the need to test them in 30 plus degree weather. The test vehicle for this week is the Dodge Avenger SXT — with heated seats. More…

I was actually not supposed to have any vehicle to test this week, but hard as life can be, I was offered the new-for-2008 Subaru Impreza to test drive. Knowing how much my dedicated readers love to read about Subaru and then comment on their pricing structure I couldn’t resist grabbing this sedan for the week. More…

It has been quite the busy past few days for me, but it seems like it may have settled down a little bit now that the long weekend is behind me and I’m back to the grind. Why is it when there is a holiday I am always busier than when there is no holiday? I always seem to need a holiday from my holiday to rest up. Anyway, as I said, back to the grind and another car to review for this week. More…

Well they are all the rage, or all the debate, depending on where you are. Of course, I’m talking about hybrids, and it is about time I get myself behind the wheel of one these technological wonders to see what the fuss is all about. More…

This week I’m having a little déjà vu action. I drove the Legacy 2.5GT Spec B not too long ago — back in January, actually, and the Legacy GT SportWagon back in November of last year. Those were 2007 models,though; this week, I have the new 2008 Legacy 2.5GT Sedan. The déjà vu might be partly due to colour of my tester and interior trim, as they are identical. More…
