With no additional power over the regular Sonic fitted with Chevy’s turbocharged 1.4-liter engine, the new 2013 Chevrolet Sonic RS is more trim level than standalone model but we’re sure this won’t put off too many buyers. That’s because the Sonic RS comes pretty...

Chevrolet has given us a vision of what it thinks buyers of the future, today’s youth, will seek when it comes time for them to drop their hard-earned at a dealership. That vision comes in the form of two striking sports car concepts unveiled today at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show: the...

Porsche's new 911 is a great sports car, though to some it may be less 911 than ever. We don't really care; it's undoubtedly one of the best combinations of sport, comfort, and style in the under-$100,000 price range. And now it's available as a convertible.
