Last night I attended the premiere of the new film “Raptor - Born in Baja” which is a joint production between Ford Motor Company and Brentwood Communications. The premiere was held at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood and it came complete with a few celebrities and a red carpet that covered a makeshift dirt entrance. The movie was certainly intriguing; telling the story of the Raptor team and their quest to build and race the truck in the Baja 1000.

The Audi A3 TDI carries the updated styling cues seen throughout the entire lineup, and wears them nicely.

I figured I would be bored for a week and then move on, but I was totally wrong. More...

2009 Aston Martin DBS

There are only a handful of words that can be used to best describe the Aston Martin DBS. Breathtaking, exhilarating, heart pounding, exciting, sexy, fast, speed, elegant, classy, sophisticated, unique, special, unparalleled, luxury, performance and horsepower. Just a few right? How about just perfect!

So, I guess, there are more than a few words that describe this supercar, but words can’t really describe the overall experience of driving the DBS. The NADAguides.com team was honored to be behind the wheel piloting such a magnificent piece of machinery and we hope that our review gives the DBS the justice it deserves. More...
