As I noticed there isn't much noise over the Internet about this car. You have Toyota, Honda, Fiat and VW everywhere in the media, magazines, youtube, forums... and what is the most disturbing, on the roads. And Renault? Just few short reviews around the premiere date and afterwards... nothing - complete silence.
Scorpion bites! Abarth (Fiat) 500 – test drive
This car is like a puppy, that is fighting with a shoe twice as big as it's head. It's so angry and serious about the job, it's never tired with the fight... but You just can't stop smiling when You see it. I know I shouldn't use this word describing a car, but it's just....
Old vs New – are the cars getting better?
Today's cars are more socially responsible. Modern means safer. Safer for the people inside the car, and even safer for the folk You run over. More reliable? Maybe. And they are better for the environment to: all that comes from the exhaust pipes are baby squirrels and flowers. But is this really such a progress?

2009 Subaru Impreza: WRX vs Diesel
We all want to have "fun cars". The more power they have - the better. But at the same time we need some usability do drive to work, to go for a weekend trip. Also when the whole world shouts about ecology and oil prices, You have to consider it in wider: economical aspect. Meet the fun and reason factors somewhere in the middle.
They did it again… The roumours about Toybaru or “Celica/Supra” return were pretty hot. Some hints were released from time to time. I was eagerly anticipating what happens in this project. They had it all figured out pretty nice. Cooperation with Subaru, oldfashioned 2.0l boxer engine, RWD, coupe looks of FT-86 concept. Promising!
And we waited… Personally I was REALLY hoping that their motoring feel will somehow turn, and they will get more interesting and make use of the technological potential they have. But no… They did it again. Read more…
Here’s a little something for You. Carsoblog proudly presents…
Well… Maybe it’s not exactly what this blog is about, but I have to make an exception and post these. My dear friend quite a few days ago published his most recent work. I’ve seen some car pics, some better, some not so good and still published in recognized car magazines and posters… And the photos You’re about to see here today are absolutely amazing!
I could write more about the quality of the work TOMiRRi Photography did, but this is not a photo blog. Just see for Yourself…
I just saw this ad on some car enthusiasts bulletin board. It’s really entertaining – enjoy!
IMHO this is the right way to show a VW. Every other attempt when they tried to be somewhat controversial, or refer to style (like this VW Polo ad), was a little too much for them. In this case – it’s about an average car – but in new version.
PS. In my opinion the reason why the force didn’t work for the kid was that he didn’t use the gloves! But I cant prove that
Patient: 2009 Renault Megane Coupe TCE 180 Distance travelled:26 000 km Age: 13 months old Status: good as new, even better (I added the body kit )
First of all: As there was pretty much feedback from the readers of the first review – thank You for writing and commenting. It feels good to know that the first review was found helpful - it’s time for the part 2. Now, to the point. Current situation on the front? Read more…
Honda used to be one of my favorite brands… let’s say in 90′s, when I was a student dreaming about some tuned Civic with at least 100 bhp. Affordable and sporty – that was their thing. Revving CRX – producing 100 hp per liter of engine capacity! Recently they got a little “slow”… CR-Z didn’t get much reviews in favor of the car. I also had a chance to check what it’s worth and HERE is a little review from my side… Read more…
French motoring fans had recently many reasons to be proud of. WRC trophies of Citroen. F1 results of Renault, Peugeot winning LeMans, and their RCZ model… And now Citroen is showing new interesting direction. Just take a look at first pictures and some technical data of production version DS4 model, which official premiere was made during Paris Motor Show few weeks ago. Citroen continues the process of company image adjustment. After a success of DS3, they decided to show another of the breed. Read more…
It’s time to get back to the topic. What’s going on with Supra? Another rumors are around the press. New launch date would be 2013. Postponed again. And again for 2 years. I don’t know if they got scared of the sport topic? By massive failure as Lexus LFA is? Toyota keeps all the fans in suspense. The first date and concept pictures of new Supra were saying: 2009. Then they made a little mess with FT-HS (aka Toybaru) model. I was hoping that Toyota will get back to serious motoring. Having both FT-HS and Supra would be amazing. Like the old days: Celica and Supra. Read more…
Here’s a new Ad from 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX. Yes… You CAN find many similar unofficial commercials. As the idea of showing the various reactions of a casual person during some extreme driving is getting pretty popular.
Some time ago I asked myself a question: What’s going on with Honda? Hoping that this weird trend Honda was presenting in recent years will somehow get reversed. Hoping that they will announce a new S2000 – faster, lighter and… better. That TypeR badge will fight back for it’s name – to lead again in the class. And instead, they release CR-Z model… (and here I should put some fancy “facepalm” jpg to express my feelings more precisely). Read more…
Ford is full of surprises. After launching the RS version of Focus, which was claimed to be the best hot hatch on the market, they go further. Focus RS is still the most powerful compact car and best handling FWD car on the roads… ever, and that just wasn’t enough. They decided to make something more extreme (than 300 HP on FWD?).
A new limited version of RS500 is about to be released! For ma as a RS biggest fan, this is just “WOW!” I wonder what will the tuners do when they get their hands on this toy What is the HP limit in this class? Just “WOW!” Read more…
