Room for two in the Mazda MX-5 – luggage, well, not so much. When I dream of driving in Southern California, I envision a sports car, top down sun shining. Well, we had the Miata convertible, but it was heated seats and windshield wipers for this ride. In fact, it was so cold in Los…
2016 Nissan 370Z Nismo: The thrill of owning the road
Do NOT read this review if you don’t like to have fun driving. If you do, you might decide it’s time. And by fun, I mean feel the thrill behind the wheel as well as when you pull up into a valet, parking lot or driveway and turn heads when you get out of a…

Lexus RC 350 f – Turning Heads And Taking Names
A sweet ride in the Lexus RC 350 f. I really didn’t know how I’d feel about driving a sports car for a week. I’m not much of a car person to begin with – I like trucks and SUVs. But, my brother in-law assured me I’d like this car and I should give it a…
How to be Popular: Cruise around in a 2014 Mazda Miata MX-5
Sun on your shoulders, hair in the wind, and summer seems to last forever. I hate September. It’s the end of summer, that the party is over, and it’s time to get back to work, back to school, back to the seriousness of life. So I had mixed feelings when I was invited to test…
Nissan 370Z NISMO: A Track-Worthy Sports Car That Gets Your Heart Racing, Too
A Trophy Car For Living The Life. I learned something this week: I’m part of a car cult – the Nissan 370Z cult. I took a trip recently to Austin and San Antonio all by myself: no kids, no husband, just me. As a part of the trip I asked to review a car and…
