What the DBS has is an excellent mix of truly stunning design, performance and class — probably more than you’ll get anywhere else. I drive many cars, and sometimes I’m sorry to see them go back to their rightful owners. But this time? We’re talking full-on separation anxiety.

The Mazda MX-5’s advantages in the market are that it has little competition — and none with anywhere near its two decades of refinement and evolution.

If and when gas prices go back up, the Insight’s combination of a low sticker price and good, if not exceptional, mileage could make it the right investment.

The Boxster is Porsche’s most affordable model, and possibly its most fun. The Boxster was upgraded for 2009 with more power, better mileage and revised suspensions, but it thankfully hasn’t lost its soul in everyday driving.

Having driven the 2009 CTS-V, I’m pounding the gavel. Cadillac can compete with the best of them, and possibly win.

A high-quality small car is exactly what people are looking for — preferably one that makes few sacrifices. The 2009 Honda Fit is that car.

The Mercedes E550 excels in comfort, with a smooth ride and a quiet cabin. And it takes only a few seconds to learn that the V-8-powered E550 can lean forward with the best of them.

Improved all-wheel drive, a more comfortable ride and a lower price make the Audi S4 a better package overall and a nice upgrade from the regular A4.

With its retractable hardtop and excellent drivetrains, the new Eos convertible is a welcome addition to the Volkswagen lineup and to the market as a whole.

The Audi TT could get by on its looks alone, yet it’s fun to drive and a more capable sports car than you might have been led to believe.
