2006 BMW Z4 M Coupe vs. 2006 Porsche Cayman S
2007-09-13 14:45:00 BY TONY QUIROGA, PHOTOGRAPHY BY AARON KILEY Two used-to-be roadsters aim for the hearts of purist drivers. The tradition of sports-car automaking in recent history has been to turn out a roadster, wait until sales slip, then produce a hardtop to pick up the slack. To the nonenthusiast driver, the idea of turning a perfectly good convertible ... More About: Porsche , Porsche Cayman , Luxury Car , Coupe , Roadster
2008 Infiniti G37 Coupe
2007-09-13 14:14:00 BY STEVE SILER, PHOTOGRAPHY BY JARED HOLSTEIN The four-seat Z becomes ?infinitely? better. Infiniti knew it had something good in its first-generation G35. When it was launched for the 2003 model year, the unknown rear-wheel-drive G35 sedan was certainly good enough to take on the best in the hyper-competitive, sedan-dominated near-lux segment all by itself. However, Infiniti ... More About: Coupe , 2008

2007 Subaru Forester 2.5XT
2007-09-09 07:46:00 BY JARED HOLSTEIN, PHOTOGRAPHY BY AARON KILEY, MORGAN SEGAL, AND THE MANUFACTURERS Most 2.5XTs we see around town have various roof racks, cargo areas stuffed with slobbering Newfoundlands or gardening crap, and they are nearly always filthy. We wonder whether the owners bought the car because they liked the alloy wheels, or whether they are consciously ... More About: Subaru , Fore , Suba , Baru
2008 Lexus IS-F
2007-09-09 07:38:00 BY JARED GALL, PHOTOGRAPHY BY JEFFREY G. RUSSELL The brute force approach: if enough challengers attack the BMW 3-series at all levels, eventually one will defeat it, right? Right? We have been reasonably impressed with the latest Lexus IS. In its first bout with a slew of sport sedans, the IS outright dominated acceleration and braking tests, ...

2007 Honda Civic Type R
2007-09-09 07:23:00 BY RAY HUTTON, PHOTOGRAPHY BY MIKE VALENTE Once again, we probably won’t see the Civic Type R in the U.S. Pity. It’s like our Civic Si but in hatchback form and turned up to 11.

2007-09-09 07:05:00 BY TONY SWAN, PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK SAY A swell sequel to a first act that was very strong. It?s no secret that creating a new car whose visual and visceral appeals hit enough buyer sweet spots to make it a winner is chapter one in the great book of designer challenges.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX Wagon
2007-09-09 07:00:00 BY PETER LYON A new species of wagon discovered in Japan. This simple silver vehicle may look like an average compact wagon with a few sporty body panels thrown in to make it a bit more muscular. That couldn’t be further from the truth. With the Lancer Evolution IX wagon, Mitsubishi has wrought a comfortable five-door family ... More About: Wagon , Bish
Toyota MR2 Spyder SMT
2007-09-08 14:25:00 BY BARRY WINFIELD Mr.Two gets a sequential manual transmission. One expects high-tech F1-style paddle shifting from Ferrari and Alfa Romeo, and rallylike sequential manual shifting in a BMW M3 comes as no surprise. But what about an electrohydraulically automated manual from Toyota ? Yep, Toyota now offers a five-speed manual in the MR2 Spyder that you shift using buttons ... More About: Roadster
Lexus IS300 SportCross
2007-09-08 14:18:00 BY PATRICK BEDARD If it looks like a station wagon, you just don’t get it. Readers of continuing immersion in this journal over the past 40-some years will say, “Yup, that’s what it is, all right,” when we describe this Lexus as a “shooting brake.” Affluent Brits of yore occasionally had a sporting coupe, something from Aston ...
Acura NSX
2007-09-08 14:12:00 BY TONY SWAN More refined than ever, but will refinement alone be enough to keep it afloat? “Most underrated” is an expression usually employed by sportscasters, as in, “He’s one of the most underrated fullbacks in the league.” Who’s in charge of underratings? That’s not clear. But it is clear that this description applies to the Acura ... More About: Luxury Car , Coupe

2007 Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart - Short Take Road Tests
2007-09-08 12:58:00 BY DAVE VANDERWERP A surprisingly athletic mid-size sedan from an unexpected source. First, a confession: As we wandered toward the new-for-2007 Galant Ralliart, which Mitsubishi proudly calls a ?sports sedan,? we were prepared to be underwhelmed. Come on, how sporty can a front-wheel-drive, mid-size sedan be? We figured we?d brave the inevitable torque steer and likely never ... More About: Sedan , Road , Tests , Short
2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT - Long Term Road Tests
2007-09-08 12:46:00 BY TONY SWAN, PHOTOGRAPHY BY MORGAN SEGAL If not love, at least respect. Performance, value and outstanding service record outweighs the negatives.

Maserati MC12
2007-09-04 14:51:00 BY BARRY WINFIELD Another race-based megacar you won’t be driving soon. The high-speed test track at the Fiat Group’s Balocco proving ground near Milan, Italy, is an asymmetrical trioval with long straights and slightly banked corners. It’s a confusing layout in a flat landscape that provides few visual reference points. Not surprisingly, at a recent press introduction, ... More About: Maserati , Luxury Car , Racing Cars
2007 Chevrolet Avalanche LT - Short Take Road Tests

The Avalanche would be just another four-door pickup if it weren?t for the folding partition that separates the passenger compartment from the cargo bed.
