Quick Drive: 2012 Hyundai Veloster
I’ve always been a big fan of small, sporty hatchbacks. As a matter of fact, as many of our readers might already know, my first car was an 88 Honda Civic hatch. My next car was an 88 Acura Integra Special. They were both great little cars and lots of fun to drive. In the past few months, we’ve driven read_more»
The 2012 Honda Civic Coupe Reviewed
We had a chance to do a Quick Drive review of this 2012 Honda Civic Coupe back during the Texas Auto Roundup where to be quite honest, we were fairly unimpressed at that time. It didn’t help that just before driving the Honda Civic Coupe we took the Kia Forte 5 out and thought it was everything we wanted the read_more»
2011 Ford Explorer reviewed
In the time leading up to us reviewing the 2011 Ford Explorer, I was already quite excited about it. All Ford products we’ve driven in the last few years have been getting better and better and there is no getting away from the fact that this is one nice looking SUV. Back in the mid 90’s, the Explorer was all the read_more»
2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon reviewed w/ Video
After seeing the commercials for the new TSX Sport Wagon, my first impression was amazement that they’d bring this to America. My next impression was that it couldn't be as good as the TSX was. Of course now we have the chance to test it out and see what’s really what. read_more»
2011 Mitsubishi Outlander GT full review
Why am I going on about the design of cars versus SUV’s and Trucks? Because that’s exactly what Mitsubishi has done with the new Outlander. The Outlander is built on the platform of the Mitsubishi Lancer and shares a lot of design cues as well. The only thing is, I think Mitsubishi nailed it. I really like the design of read_more»
2011 GMC Terrain SLT-2 Full Review
Writing and editing for txGarage has its perks. I had a very special trip planned to one of my favorite destinations on the Texas coast, Port Aransas, and needed something that could haul me and my friends down there in comfort, plus handle the terrain when we got there. We considered a few different options for this trip, but when read_more»
Quick Drive: 2011 Honda Civic
If you read our Quick Drive of the 2011 Kia Forte 5, then you really already know what my opinion is about the Honda Civic. My first car was an 88 Civic hatch and I remember the time when the Civic was the car to own because it was cheap and the engine was sporty and almost bulletproof. I guess read_more»
2012 Ford Focus Reviewed
The Ford Focus has never been that strong of a competitor in the U.S. market. Although having great success with the Focus, and growing the platform, over seas Ford neglected the Focus brand here in their home market keeping a cheaper and older platform. The enthusiast community, including us here at txGarage, have cried for years for Ford to bring read_more»
Quick Drive: 2011 Kia Optima Turbo
We reviewed the 2011 Kia Optima about a month ago, and I still maintain that for the price, it’s one of the best looking cars you can get right now. We already felt like the 2.4 liter engine in the Optima we drove then was pretty peppy, but I wouldn’t consider it fast car. Now with a 2.0 liter turbocharged read_more»
Quick Drive: 2012 Fiat 500
After Fiat bought out Chrysler to up its stake in the company, Fiat knows it has a lasting presence in America. The plan is to rollout the entire Fiat line-up to the U.S. market, starting with the Fiat 500. As the ambassador to the brand then, the 500 really needs to be a big hit for Fiat. So what did read_more»
