2008 Chevrolet Malibu Review

Early reviews of the Malibu have been mostly positive, and the general consensus is that it deserves a place on consumers’ shopping lists. Doug Schuster, J.D. Power and Associates’ executive director of global forecasting, predicts success for the Malibu but also believes the midsize leaders will retain their positions.

This car has a small place in my heart as an old friend used to obsess over this car when he was in high school. A 1975 Malibu sat in his garage and he took it out about 3 times a year. Just a kid at the time and he thought it was the coolest thing on Earth. We took it out with its top down to the beach to pick up hotties and had a blast. HE sold it and put a down payment on some condos for sale several years back and runs a great rental business now.

No More Borat

Ali G is done. So is Borat. Sacha Baron Cohen , who rose to fame playing comic -- and sometimes ridiculous -- characters, has decided to retire two of the personalities that made him a star.

In an interview with the Telegraph as himself, the English actor says he will no longer play either Ali G or Borat who was about as interesting as a pocket watch in his movie in my opinion.

"When I was being Ali G and Borat I was in character sometimes 14 hours a day and I came to love them, so admitting I am never going to play them again is quite a sad thing," he admits.

2008 Subaru Legacy Review

Not one of the fancier models, but a winner in the mid-sized sedan ring. If you don't need toe most expensive thing on the market this is a pretty darn good car. Nice trunk for my computer rental business as well.

For 2008, Subaru has given its Legacy a subtle face-lift, evident from changes to the Legacy's grille and lighting systems fore and aft. The company also added a new trim level this year, the 3.0 R Limited, that features a 245-horsepower flat-6 coupled to a rev-matching, paddle-shifted automatic gearbox. There are also revisions on the inside with new seat fabrics and an updated instrument panel. Full review

Audi R8 is "SportsCar 2007"

Only pure-bred sports cars are crowned “SportsCar” of the year by a panel of experts in the Autobild SportsCars monthly magazine. Following its victory in the March 2007 issue, the Audi R8 has now been awarded top place overall, and has thus secured the title of “SportsCar 2007”, one of the German car industry’s most sought-after awards.

If you go to this Audi R8 link you can see the video about the car. This car is amazing. Saw a couple at my Las Vegas hotel when I was there earlier this year and wanted one bad. There are 2 more videos for the car as well after the one auto-plays once you get there.
