2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Audi has highest German-made value retention. Buy a 1-year old certified pre-owned and save the 20% depreciation in the first year. see full Audi A3 / S3 / RS3 review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Audi is well known for their engineering prowess, and that was a big plus for me. They may not be the best-knwon luxury make, but they are making a big push in the U.S. market for brand awareness. At the dealer, customer treatment is extraordinary! see full Audi A3 / S3 / RS3 review |

2011 | 2dr Coupe 312-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Camaro has a history for being a muscle car. Lots of power yet durable and fun to drive. Back in the day the muscle cars had a rep for having poor handling but with modern technology Chevy has taken car of that issue. see full Chevrolet Camaro review |

2017 | 2dr Coupe 455-horsepower 6.2L V8 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
There it is...the "Camaro Image." Years of Z-28's and IROC's have completely set the expectation (and not totally inaccurately, either) that Camaro's are driven by mullet-sporting, trucker-hat wearing, Lynyrd Skynyrd-rocking rednecks. Doesn't matter that Chevy now offers a machine that can out-corner a Ferrari 458 and out-lap...well, pretty much anything. It's still a redneck racecar. see full Chevrolet Camaro review |
