As far back as I can remember, I’ve always loved cars! When I was a kid, the sight of a Rolls Royce would get me panting like a dog in the hopes that one day, I would have one in my garage. I remember the first time I road in a Rolls, heaven on wheels. As I got older, my tastes definitely changed. American muscle cars captured my imagination, the Corvette, Trans Am, and Camaro even an occasional Mustang would suit me just fine. I was fortunate enough to drive a Corvette as a young man. A beautiful 1982 Collector’s Edition which I still own although not quite in the drivable condition I’d hoped for. Lexus, Saab, Lincoln, Cadillac, BMW, Audi, Volvo, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, I’ve owned them all and enjoyed the unique driving experience that each had to offer.
So why this site? My hope is that there are many like me who share the same passion for the cars they drive, or wish they could drive. Contained within this site are pages representing every manufacturer and every model they presently offer. Which is your favorite? Which one do you aspire to covet? Which one do you have personal experience with and recommend we buy? avoid? or leave abandoned on the side of the interstate? I’m interested in your opinions and I’m sure many others are too.
I hope you enjoy!

First Look: 2012 Chrysler Mopar ’12 300 Tuesday, 7 February 2012, 11:02 pm
Chrysler’s big sedan receives the Mopar touch.
Mopar’s string of factory-built, blue-on-black, special-edition models continues, but in a break from tradition, Chrysler’s aftermarket parts and accessories wing isn’t starting with a Dodge product. Instead, its latest limited-edition effort — the Mopar ‘12 300 — is based off the Chrysler 300.

First Look: 2012 Jeep Compass True North Tuesday, 7 February 2012, 7:02 pm
Mopar prepares Jeep’s soft-roader for some off-road action.
Jeep’s Compass isn’t exactly known as an ideal canvas for building a purpose-built off-road vehicle, but it seems Mopar — Chrysler’s parts and accessories division — thinks otherwise. In fact, the brand recently introduced a new Compass True North package that might further the Compass’ prowess off the beaten trail.

Almost an Abarth.
What’s small, yellow, and vaguely looks like a 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth? That would be the new 2012 Fiat 500 Mopar Stinger, which is available by way of two dealer-installed packages offered through Chrysler’s Mopar parts and service brand.

The 2013 Dodge Dart isn’t even in showrooms yet, but that’s not stopping the folks at Chrysler’s Mopar division from cooking up some interesting add-ons for the new compact sedan. Along with 150-some-odd accessory parts, the Mopar folks also have a new performance-tuned model dubbed the Dart GTS 210 Tribute.

At the Dawn of the Rising Sun Tuesday, 7 February 2012, 7:02 pm
Looking back at the beginnings of the Japanese sports car.
From cheap and chintzy to dull and boring, Japanese cars have often battled a bad reputation among American and European enthusiasts. On the eve of the new Scion/Subaru sports car, which is neither cheap and chintzy nor dull and boring, it’s worth a look in the rearview mirror at four cars from the dawn of the Japanese auto industry that were exceptional enough to catapult their makers into the ranks of the world’s largest and most respected automobile manufacturers.
