Top 10 standout cars at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show!

14/3/2018

Comments

 
It's been a week since the doors for the Geneva Motor Show opened, and they still are until this Sunday.  The big theme this year is eco-friendliness, but with a twist.  The twist is fun!  With cars like the Volvo Polestar 1 and Honda EV concept cars, it seems like manufacturers have finally realized that people want cars that are eco friendly, but also fun.  There's plenty of other interesting non-EV and non-hybrid cars as well, but 10 have stood out more than others.  Hope you approve of the list.

5/8/2013

Here is some drive-by footage of a Honda/Acura NSX prototype at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. It definitely sounds good, but we'll have to wait until 2015 to find out if its all-wheel-drive hybrid powertrain will deliver the same thrills as its rear-wheel-drive predecessor.  The car will be built in Honda's Ohio plant.

Used car review: Honda Accord (2002 - 2007)

Inconspicuous, yet it fits the description of what makes a standout car.  First of all it carries the name of one of the highest-selling vehicles of all time – Honda Accord.  Then there is the fact that it offers affordable motoring while being well-equipped.  But most of all, the Honda Accord has solidified its reputation as one of the most reliable cars ever made – a reputation that even luxury cars costing many times more can’t match.

Does cheap mean bad? 1999 Honda Logo answers

Have you ever bought something simply because it was very cheap? I’ve done this more times than I can remember - how else would I end up with a pair of Nike skate shoes that I’ve only worn once in five years? A friend of mine has recently bought something really cheap as well – a 1999 Honda Logo he found posted on Switzerland’s glocals.com.  It cost him all of CHF 250, and in a country where cars cost roughly twice what they do in North America, calling it a bargain is a bit of an understatement.

Flame-spitting appreciation

If you’re a car enthusiast, people close to you might have asked you “why do you like cars so much?” And chances are you weren’t able to give them a direct answer.  There are many things that make us tick when in comes to a car; the design, the quality, the noise it makes, the history, the performance, etc.  But occasionally we get other things, like flames shooting out of the exhaust.  If like me, the sight of flames (the real kind, no flamethrower kits here) coming out of the exhaust causes the caveman in you to come out, then you’ll enjoy checking out these videos of awesome flame spitters.

1999-2009 Honda S2000

4/2/2011

The Honda S2000 went out of production late in 2009 after ten years in sports car service, and up until the Ferrari 458 Italia arrived, the S2000's engine produced more horsepower per litre than any other naturally-aspirated engine in the world, with the Italia’s 126hp/l just about passing the S2000’s 120hp/l.  

The S2000 was offered with a high-revving 2.0-litre four cylinder engine producing 240hp and 153lb ft of torque (250hp for Japanese cars).  As with many high-performance Hondas, the engine was connected to a sweet-shifting six-speed manual transmission, sending power to the rear wheels.  And if you decided to make a 0-60mph sprint, you would get there in 6.2sec and reach a top speed of 150mph.  Also, the VTEC system meant that you could rev the engine to 9000rpm without it exploding.
