Not since the demise of the Acura NSX sports car have Honda products prompted observers to say “That’s a great-looking car, what is it?” Also not since the NSX went extinct have Hondas made BMW drivers look in their rearview mirror with surprise on a winding road and then squeeze the gas har...
Looking to escape the Toyota Camry/Honda Accord status quo? Tired of seeing yourself—or at least an identical version of your car—regularly coming the other way? Ever try to open the door of the wrong car of the same make, model and color in a mall parking lot? Do you desire a bolder styling...
There's nothing quite like getting things right the first time around. Except, perhaps, continuing to keep them right over and over. Honda's Accord is a spot-on, real-world example of that adage in action. Now in its sixth generation, this hardy perennial is rolling through the penultima...
Things have been looking pretty sweet of late for the gang at Kia Motors. U.S. sales rose some 17 percent in 2000, thanks in no small measure to the recent arrivals of the Sephia-based Spectra and the ultra-economical sub-compact Rio—currently the lowest priced car available in this countr...

Mazda's 626 midsize sedan has long been a sales footnote to category volume leaders like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord. Never quite large, powerful or distinctive enough, not as sporty as the VW Passat or Nissan Maxima, or as well rounded as the new Altima, the 626 soldiered on through s...
Now in its second year of production, the Mazda6 returns for 2004 as a serious challenger to midsize volume leaders such as Toyota Camry and Honda Accord and sporty competition like the Acura TSX, Volkwagen Passat and Nissan Altima...
The true mark of success in the sedan business is not the total number of vehicles produced or even sold, but the total sold to retail customers—folks who walk into a dealership and buy a car because it's what they want. While many domestic sedans begin their lives by trundling out the factor...
Innovative engineering has been a Honda hallmark for decades. The same corporate mindset that gave the world the revolutionary low-emission CVCC (Compound Vortex Controlled Combustion) cylinder head design back in 1977 and will likely have ASIMO turning cartwheels and whistling Be...
However one defines an automotive enthusiast, there's no arguing that the love of driving is the basis of every buff's being. It helps, then, that what we drive can actually be driven. Behind every restoration or upgrade project, or collector car aspiration, is the desire to drive what we l...
