Review: 2016 Audi TT

Review: 2016 Audi TT
The first generation Audi TT was about as much of statement car as you could make in the modern age. Perhaps even more than an exotic supercar like a new Ferrari or Lamborghini flagship because power and beauty is what’s expected from them.…

Polestar to Tweak Volvo XC90 for More Performance

Review: 2016 Audi S7

Review: 2016 Audi S7
Someone once said to me: “The Audi S7 is just an overpriced version of the A7.” Something more factually incorrect has never been said. While there are significant similarities between the less expensive A7 hatchback, a fine and exquisite car in its own right, the 2016 Audi S7 is most definitely better in all the ways that matter.…
