Take a tour down the Hot Wheels aisle of your local toy store and you see creations that will blow your mind and make you wish they could be built and drive in full size. While some of the amazing creations you see in miniature scale simply wouldn’t work on a road or to be driven by a person, one car has been used and offered in different variations over the years to give us an exciting and fun way to race and reach the finish line before anyone else at the tracks we drive.

Continued Growth in Canada for GM Brands
For many years, GM has had a strong presence in Canada with some assembly and manufacturing plants in the country. As we see this automaker continue to work toward offering the brands and models created around the world, it’s good to see that Canadian customers still trust GM and look to this company for some of the vehicles they choose to drive. This is evident by the number of models that were sold in this country last month in order to make sure these customers have the drive needed for the ride desired on the roads.

2016 Chevrolet SS: The End of an Era
We have known for some time now that the SS would not be made after the 2016 model year as Chevrolet has pulled the plug on the Australian company Holden. That’s really too bad because this is one car that more of us should have bought and enjoyed driving but because it didn’t fit a specific mold it hasn’t been a vehicle that garnered a great deal of popularity over the years. With awesome power and the bones of the Holden Commodore this awesome car will bid us farewell at the end of this year as the performance sedan that is built to be awesome for the entire family.
When it Seems like an Odd Marriage
The world is full of oddities that we can witness. When you look at a couple and they don’t seem like a pair that you would expect to be together but it seems to work for them, you get the opportunity to witness an odd marriage. There have been many of these cases over the years in the automotive world for us to see and enjoy as some vehicles that have either been a great way to make a vehicle or have let us down in some form. Let’s check out a few and you can decide for yourself.
The Spark Continues to Ignite Us
When you look at the Chevrolet Spark it doesn’t look like much, but a couple years ago Dale Earnhardt Jr. showed us how much fun the previous version of the Spark can be. Even though the Spark was already a great product Chevrolet decided 2016 would mark a new year and new Spark for us to love.
What is Holding Back EV Sales
We talk about the EV’s becoming the future of the automotive world and we even see where some of the new models have reasonable driving range, but for 2015 the total sales of EV cars was less than one percent of the market. There are now 25 plug in models that you can choose from but most consumers are not ready to make the change from gasoline to electric propulsion for one simple reason; driving range. Most of these electric cars off driving ranges that wouldn’t even fill a full day of commuting, which then means we need to have either a backup gasoline engine for further driving or we need to have a way to charge the batteries quickly.
Camaro Upgrades for 2016
The Camaro keeps showing us a few different new features each month for us to keep interest and know it is coming soon. As one of the most anticipated and lauded offerings for the next model year Chevrolet doesn’t have to worry about the Camaro gaining the attention it deserves. With the new power folding roof the convertible version has joined the ranks of higher end sports cars with the technology to impress and amazing anyone looking at or riding in this awesome sports car with you as you push the V8 monster to new strength toward the next great destination you have in mind.
The New Camaro Convertible
After the unveiling in early May we have had over a month to review and fall in love with the new Camaro that will represent the 2016 model year. As a premier sports car this new fun and flashy model allows us to enjoy the shorter wheelbase and the fact that Chevrolet put some emphasis on the interior of the car and the comfort of those who will be driving and riding in this awesome new power monster that is ready to have some fun and show off as a continued leader in the sports car markets.
