The 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a very good car, and that may be its greatest flaw. Being magna cum laude in a class full of summa cum laude standouts such as the new Honda Accord, Nissan Altima, Ford Fusion, and Volkswagen Passat just isn’t enough in today’s mid-size family sedan marketplace. Despite its failure to [...]

The 2013 Volvo S60 is still as Swedish as a big chunk of lutfisk with lingonberry topping. Foreign buyouts can be harrowing for automotive companies, but Zhejiang Geely has done absolutely no wrong to this vehicle. The 2013 Volvo S60 is not only worthy of competing with the world’s best, including the Audi A4, BMW [...]

Through the middle of January, it got blisteringly cold in Denver. So cold, in fact, that the TFLcar long-term BRZ’s tachometer began icing over (see above). I’d already driven the BRZ through some nasty stuff, but how would it fare in single-digit ambient temperatures? Walking up to the car, the BRZ let loose its first [...]
You’re a young, upstart professional in a rugged climate with a toddler and a yellow lab – the perfect demographic for the 2013 Audi Allroad. CUVs and SUVs are too large for your bungalow’s parking pad and besides, you want to minimize your footprint. No, the 2013 Audi Allroad doesn’t run on organic flour and patchouli, but it [...]

The 2013 Audi S5 is one of the fastest cars that we’ve tested at 1 mile above sea level. With all-whee-drive and launch control the Quattro S Tronic just claws at the pavement as the automatic transmission tears one shift after another much faster than a human hand. This is the raw video from our [...]
It’s early Sunday morning, something like 4:45am. The ambient temperature hovers around 20 degrees fahrenheit and a layer of thick, icy fog hangs just above the ground. “(Expletive), I’m going to miss my flight,” I thought, as I feverishly ridded my windows of an inch-thick layer of ice. Sure, I’d replaced the 2013 Subaru [...]
The 2013 Subaru BRZ is made with magical pixie dust. Really, there’s no other explanation for why this car makes me feel like a pro every time I get behind the wheel. That is, except for when there’s snow on the ground, or when I have to carry more than one passenger. In theory, practicality [...]
At their core, the 2013 Lexus GX460 and 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon have one thing in mind: Safely transporting you and your family to areas far beyond the reach of the average SUV. But in the 2013 Lexus GX460 vs. 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Off-Road Mashup Review, how can the rough-and-tumble Jeep’s refinement possibly hold [...]
I’m not the first to say it- on paper, the 2013 Cadillac ATS is a car worthy of competing against the 2013 BMW 3-series. But what’s 500 miles in an ATS like to someone who has owned two BMWs? What if you’re one who prefers German apple strudel to American apple pie, and you’re suddenly [...]
