Spoiler alert: Blood Ravens are actually Hiigarans who got sucked into the warp, were sent back in time to fight in WWII against the Panzer Elite, then stole a nazi time machine to go into the future and save mankind from an army of Lobster-Elephants and other impossible creatures.

Rated R.

I love hatches but I really wish they would make AWD or RWD variants instead of the same old FWD torque steer machines. For the money the RS500 costs i'd look into something RWD or AWD any day as 350hp going to the front wheels is just begging to be driven into a tree.

R32 fits that bill but it's not 300 hp though that can be taken care of with a bit of cash.

The R32 is not available in Canada. :canada:
Having said that though I do really want one.

Either way, I hope someone expands on this test to demonstrate high speed Scandinavian flicks in a full-size SUV, because that sounds awesomely entertaining. :dance:

Here you go

It's not a scientific test at all. But I imagine the results would be the same.

So Honda is apparently going to discontinue their hybrid models in Canada because of disappointing sales.

I'm as shocked as you are that it wasn't the Crosstour. How about a real wagon for a country that buys lots of them, Honda? Maybe with all the money you save not updating the Civic you could also put some double wishbones in it next time.

It's like watching Nissan self-destruct all over again, but this time the French aren't involved and the Fit is actually a decent small car. Maybe the Fiesta will force North American Honda to try and actually revise something.

I saw a crosstour at the gas station the other day. It look like Honda took an Accord , put it in a photocopier and hit 150%. Then jacked it up about 6". I think the problem with the crosstour is that you don't know what it's supposed to be, It's too high off the ground to be a wagon, but too small to be an SUV, and too long to be a sedan.

I think it's gorgeous, though it looks an awful lot like the Fisker Karma.

I think the new Kodo design looks cool though, it doesn't instantly remind me of anything other than a car, I'm not too sure about those sharp angles next to the grill but that probably won't make it into any production cars (pedestrian collision laws and whatnot)

The new CEO of Porsche has put the brakes on the cajun and baby boxster, and may kill both.

Earlier this year, reports suggested the new model could be powered by a 250-horsepower, forced-induction flat-four-cylinder, and share an architecture with its Volkswagen and Audi corporate siblings.

Wasn't this tried once before already?



Oh right.

I love reading about cars and car technology but I also can't wait to finish school and move into the city so I never have to worry about buying/paying for/maintaining one again. Plus there's break-ins, vandalism, finding parking, lovely drivers, etc.

I live in the city and honestly I only drive my car once a week to get to my parents place and to pick up groceries. I can't be bothered to do it for anything else. As much as I love cars I hate all the bullshit that goes with them. All I want is a racecar and use public transportation for everything else.

This will be like that frustrating "feature" on my riding lawnmower that forces me to push a button before backing up, isn't it? Not that pushing a button forces me to look backwards... in fact, quite the opposite. I end up looking at the button instead of looking at what's behind me.

Now, people are going to be looking at the camera, and not actually looking BACK where their peripheral vision would see kids running towards them, etc. These had better be some damned good cameras.

If the cameras come with fisheye lenses on them I will be supremely happy.



I love fisheye lenses.

It's just a hamburger. Can't you people wait a few days? or just go once the hype has died down?
