The 10 Worst Luxury Cars Ever Produced
You know what they say, with luxury comes expenses, but some things are better left at the dealership, if I do say so myself. Welcome to this week’s post dedicated to the all too famous luxury cars but with a twist – the worst luxury cars ever produced, and some of the names on the list might actually surprise you. 1. BMW i3 BMW takes the title for the worst luxury car ever produced and for all the right reasons.

Friday Spotlight: 2003 Toyota 4Runner
It’s been a decade since the 4th generation Toyota 4Runner was introduced and it’s crazy how fast time is flying!

Ford has introduced one of it’s top models – the Mustang – in a couple of different ways already…

February Spotlight: 2023 Toyota GR86
It may have taken Toyota a 2nd chance to redeem themselves with this car, but this version definitely deserves the ‘Most Improved Sports Car of the Year’ award. The 2023 Toyota GR86 was introduced to fix the problem of the original model (Toyota 86) – a weak engine. This version is powered by a 228-horsepower flat-four engine and comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission although a six-speed automatic transmission is available. A flat-four engine (also known as a horizontally-opposed 4 engine), is exactly what it sounds like – a flat engine with 4 cylinders arranged horizontally in two banks on each side of the crankcase. The pistons are normally…
