Friday Feature: Final Farewell to the Lamborghini Huracan
Unfortunately the time has come for the world to say goodbye to one of the most well known vehicles – the Lamborghini Huracan. First introduced back in 2014, the Huracan was a dream – and still is today, especially with the hefty price tag it carries. It was introduced at the Geneva Motor Show and the name was picked for a reason – to signify the strength and power this vehicle was really made of. Not too long after, it was featured in Top Gear Magazine as “The Supercar of the Year 2014”. The news to end production came about after Lamborghini reviewed their first quarter financial report, which showed…

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.

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!

2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse
With the year just starting it’s hard to think so far into the future, but in the automotive world, you can never think too far ahead. Ford is already introducing the 2024 Mustang Dark Horse and I have to say it looks very sexy…for a car. It has so many defined and jaw dropping features, making this a very stylish car overall. It will be available for purchase in the Summer of 2023, and trust me, despite the frigid Canadian weather we have been having, Summer is not that far away. 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…
