At times you can rent a sports car from a rental car company. This can be a great way to go out on a date on the weekend and drive a car you might never have thought you would be able to drive. Enterprise will rent you the six-cylinder versions of the Camaro or a similar model Mustang and other rental companies have their own version of a sports car you can rent. While these cars from Enterprise aren’t racers that you could put against high powered models they do give you some driving excitement from behind the wheel.

The Vehicles Loved by Thieves
Just because you’re making payments on your vehicle or you bought it outright and have the ownership papers doesn’t mean you’re the only one who loves your car. Car theft has been around for several decades and thieves do tend to target specific vehicles over others when they look for a car to steal. Typically the agenda involves the ease of reselling the car quickly and the technology involved in being able to get into the vehicle. Let’s take a look at what the ten most popular vehicles for thieves to steal for 2015 were and see why.

Why Does the Challenger Keep Falling Behind?
The Dodge Challenger is a car that can seriously invoke both feeling of nostalgia and admiration. This is a car that has the looks and some of the features that were included on the original Challenger from the time when muscle cars proudly prowled the streets. The Challenger is fast, its powerful and it has a great deal more to offer than meets the eye, especially with the availability of the Hellcat or SRT models that can be perfect for your driving enjoyment. With a Challenger you know you have a car that will turn heads and give you excitement whenever you step behind the wheel.
The Favorite Tuner Model Without a Home in the US
The Nissan Skyline has never been legal in the US for many reasons. Some have speculated the reason for this is the power that can be had in the Skyline is much greater than any police vehicle in the US and the Skyline uses AWD where most police cruisers are set up with RWD. Others feel the Skyline hasn’t been legal here because it has received a negative reputation of being one of the most dangerous cars on the road and it’s not desired in the US at all. Both these trains of thought are incorrect.
A Direct Comparison of Two Detroit Diamonds
When you think of the description listed in the title you might think about the Corvette, Mustang or Viper as the cars that will be compared. Even though most of us don’t necessarily think of midsized sedans as diamonds these cars really are as they are the cars that are used most for the purpose of commuting to and from work on a daily basis. Because of the daily grind of these cars and the fact that we spend more time in them than in any other vehicle we own they need to be valued and enjoyed like a diamond.
Death in a Tesla Causes Concern
The first American death in a Tesla Model S while using the Autopilot system occurred recently and has many wondering if the system or the driver were at fault. The victim in the crash was Joshua D. Brown, a forty year old technology company owner from Canton, Ohio who loved his Model S enough to post videos of himself behind the wheel of the car with the car in Autopilot mode. His death occurred on May 7th in Willison, Florida when the camera system was unable to distinguish the white side of a turning tractor-trailer with the bright sky, failing to engage the brakes, causing Brown to collide with the trailer and become the first fatal victim of this system.
The Worst of the Worst
Often we look at different vehicles and find some form of a redeeming quality in them. This is even the case when it comes to something as awful as the Yugo was which was only loved for the fact that the price tag was so small. Other than the price the Yugo had nothing positive to offer us and it has become the staple of comparison for the most unreliable vehicles on the market. With that in mind, let’s take a look, even if it’s only for humor’s sake, at some of the most unreliable vehicles ever to come to market.
The Lincoln Revival Has Begun
Whether you thought Lincoln was dead or just dormant the fact is this brand has been performing at a below average rate for nearly a decade. Ford hasn’t put much into the brand over several years but finally the recent changes are starting to pay off and Lincoln is once again headed in the right direction. This brand was once the most highly respected luxury brand made in America, but for several years it has become known as a brand for the older generations, which doesn’t illicit much of an active response form the Twitter generation at all.
Changes Coming for the Charger
Some of us like change and others don’t at all. As we see the Dodge Charger right now we can admire the fact that it’s a heavy and powerful car that has been trusted by law enforcement officials around the country as well as being the four door power monster that carries the Hellcat engine. Does this car need to change? That truly depends upon which side of the argument you may fall on and what you think this car is supposed to be. Let’s argue this one from both sides and see what we come up with.
