2009 Nissan 370Z – A Week Behind the Wheel

Joseph LaMuraglia
They say March roars in like a Lion and leaves like a Lamb. Here on the East coast, we began the month with a whole lot of the white stuff that has left us praying for Spring to come. I was the recipient of something else white, wicked and powerful this week and thankfully it wasn’t from mother nature. This force of nature came from Nissan in the form of a 2009 370Z Touring in Pearl White with Persimmon leather. [...]

A Week Behind the Wheel – 2009 Mercedes-Benz E320 Bluetec

Joseph LaMuraglia
I returned from a trip to San Francisco this past Wednesday and was greeted at the airport by a 2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class BlueTech. Ok, it didn’t actually GREET me; I had to take a bus to the off-site parking (an adventure in itself at Newark), wait in line, fill out paperwork…you know the drill. Alas, after entirely too long dealing with the incompetent people at Avistar Haynes lot, I finally received the keys to the Diesel Benz. [...]

2010 Lexus RX – Preview

Joseph LaMuraglia
I am in St. Simon’s Island, GA for the launch of the new Lexus RX. Originally launched in 1998 as a 1999 model, the Lexus RX was the first car-based luxury SUV. Since then, Toyota’s luxury edition has sold over 780,000 RX’s. It is a core model for Lexus and when planning a new one, they took an evolutionary approach. I’ve been experimenting with updating via Twitter and so far, feedback has been great. So here we go again. I’ll be tweeting all day as we drive the 2010 Lexus RX350 and RX400h. A slide show of the 2010 RX350 and RX400h are below the Tweetbox. Enjoy. [...]

2009 Subaru WRX – A Week In the Life

Joseph LaMuraglia
We just took delivery of Dark Gray Metallic Subaru Impreza WRX in Atlanta, GA. And thus far, we’re digging it (and we’re Tweeting it – GayWheel’s version 2.0 of the Tweet Review experience). The ’09 Subaru Impreza WRX has jumped in power and performance to that of the ’08 WRX STI. That means 265 hp, 244 lb-ft of growly flat-four torque, and more athletic suspension tuning to cling to Atlanta’s arcing curves, blast at autobahn speeds (every driven highway 400?), and navigate (ouch) the patchwork of metal plates covering the largest sewer system re-do in the last century.
