2015 Mazda3 in blue reflex mica

This article was written by Fadra Nally “Quick question – can you or your husband drive manual vehicles?” When I received an email asking if I was interested in reviewing several cars in the area, that was the sentence that caught my eye right away. Of COURSE, I can drive a stick. I don’t need a…

September 6, 2016 by Fadra Nally 2 Comments

When you hear the name Kia these days, it’s almost always in a positive light and it’s almost always in reference to one of their best-selling vehicles, like the Kia Optima or the Kia Sportage. But frankly, the 2017 Kia Cadenza rounds out an outstanding line-up as Kia firmly enters the luxury sedan market. Humble…

How GMC Enlisted DIY Bloggers to Help Make a House a HOME

August 17, 2016 by Fadra Nally 12 Comments

DIY bloggers in Detroit

Sometimes car stories don’t have much to do with cars. Sometimes the cars play a supporting role instead of a starring one. Such is the case with my recent experience as the only non-DIY blogger invited to attend the GMC Yard Sale event. The plot The DIY bloggers and I met up with the GMC Communications…

A Soft Entrance to Racing: Red Bull Global Rally Cross

August 5, 2016 by Fadra Nally Leave a Comment

Scott Speed - Global Rally Cross winner in DC

Ever been to the races? Well, that probably depends. What kind of races are you talking about? Horse racing? Yep. Been there, done that. Bike racing? Briefly, from the comfort of a barstool in a streetside tavern. Pig racing? Yes, I’ve even done that one. When it comes to car racing, there are usually just…

What’s Your First Car Story?

July 21, 2016 by Fadra Nally 1 Comment

1985 Ford Escort

One day, as I was whiling away the time on Facebook and on Twitter, I threw out a question like I often do. The question is usually something fun, something simple, and, more importantly, something I want to share the answer to as well. What was your first car? On any given day, the responses…

You Came, You Saw, You Conquered the Roads of Europe (Mostly)

July 13, 2016 by Fadra Nally 13 Comments

Europe

When AGirlsGuidetoCars writer Terri Marshall returned from a long drive through Europe, she thought it might make a good story. But a good story about driving in Europe turned into a full on experience about how to avoid ausfahrts (oh wait, that means exit in German) and peeing your pants. If you’re an American, chances…

How I Went Topless in Miami and Fell in Love with Convertibles

June 8, 2016 by Fadra Nally 1 Comment

Fadra Nally in the Infiniti QX60

Why I went topless in Miami. When I announced that I was spending several days going “topless in Miami,” I had more than a few friends make comments along the lines of, I didn’t know you were that type of girl!  I guess I didn’t know I was that type of girl either until I got behind…

Oh, Soft-Top Convertibles, You’ve Changed!

June 1, 2016 by Fadra Nally 5 Comments

I’m going topless in Miami to see just how much. And by that I mean driving a convertible car. I’m firmly convinced there are three groups of people when it comes to soft top convertibles: Those that say no way, never, no how. Those that say someday, maybe I’ll have a convertible. Those that say are you…

1977 Jeep Cherokee Chief

Do you remember your first car? You always remember it, right? Whether you bought it, inherited it, took over the car payments from your older brother. But no matter how you define it, there’s always a story. Driving was a privilege: I took advantage of it! On the day I turned 15 years and 9…

The 2016 Chevy Cruze Made Music in Nashville

April 25, 2016 by Fadra Nally 5 Comments

Taking a first look at the 2016 Chevy Cruze and Music City. One of the things that I love about attending press trips that feature a particular car is that it gives me a chance to have an experience with the car. When I do a test drive for a week, the car is the star…
