Car prices are getting intense right now, with new car prices increasing as a result of new tariffs and second-hand cars booming thanks to collectors with more money than sense. If you wanted to make the most of those millionaires spending increasingly large amounts of cash on old cars, what kind of model do you think would be a good investment? To put it simply, what new car do you think will become a future classic? - Owen Bellwood Read More

In the early days of the SUV revolution, best-sellers were proper truck-based, body-on-frame off-roaders that buyers appropriated as family cars. SUVs like the Ford Explorer and Chevrolet Blazer were once based on truck chassis, despite the reality that the vast majority of customer trucks never left paved roads. The Explorer and Blazer have both fallen out of their top-selling spots over the years, and were surpassed by crossovers like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Subaru Forester. Based on compact car platforms, crossovers effectively replaced the wagon body style of the compacts with varying degrees of actual off-road abilities. But what if things were different? What crossover do you think would make a stupid, funny, or cool body-on-frame SUV? - Logan Carter Read More

Yesterday I spent the morning driving restomod company Everrati’s electric Porsche 964, which to many is completely sacrilegious in theory, but in practice it was awesome. You’ll have to wait for my full review for all my thoughts on that electric 911, but it got me thinking again about other classic cars that could benefit from an EV swap, and that’s brought me to our question for today: What vintage car do you want to EV swap? - Daniel Golson Read More

After years of rising car prices and new models growing ever biggereven pricier EVs, the tide may be turning. Cheap, small cars saw an upswing in sales in 2024, and automakers are noticing. Manufacturers like Ford, General Motors and Volkswagen are all planning to add small models back to their lineups in the next few years. For today’s question, we want to know what small models you’d like to see make a return? - Lawrence Hodge Read More

Earlier this week I had the chance to drive Everrati’s EV-swapped Porsche 911, and it got me daydreaming about other vintage cars that would be excellent candidates for electric powertrains. That led me to my question from earlier this week: What classic model do you want to EV swap? - Daniel Golson Read More

We all love a winter project, don’t we? Something to occupy our time and minds during those long, cold months, so we don’t start clawing at the furniture out of boredom. It’s necessary enrichment for auto enthusiasts who live in northern climates, but we’re also prone to biting off more than we can chew — starting on projects without nearly enough time to finish them. - Amber DaSilva Read More

It may only be February, but spring will be here before you know it. It’ll come even faster if it knows your project car isn’t ready, so earlier this week we asked what your car needs before warmer weather arrives. Today, we’re combing through just how unfinished your projects are. - Amber DaSilva Read More
