So we got a 2010 Nissan Maxima


We’d been asking for the 2010 Nissan Maxima since October last year. For reasons unknown, our five requests were not taken seriously, while crappy magazines were getting to keep GT-Rs for months at a time. But finally someone took notice and let us have a Maxima for three measly days. I can’t say I was too enthusiastic about test-driving a rebodied Altima, but our readers had been clamouring for a real review of this car, and I’m now happy to oblige.

Bufori Geneva, the Malaysian-built Australian


Bufori Motor Car Company, the Australia-based niche carmaker, unveiled their Malaysian-built Bufori Geneva luxury model a few months ago at, where else, the recent 2010 Geneva International Motor Show a few months ago.

Long-term update: 2005 Peugeot 307 2.0

Long-term update: 2005 Peugeot 307 2.0


This is actually the first update on our 2005 Peugeot 307 2.0 XSI since we bought the black 3-door hatchback back in late 2008.

Oddly enough, my first update is also my last update. Largely driven by my college-going brother, I’ve now sold the car to Diego, my former PR guy.

So we got a 2010 Cadillac CTS-V

So we got a 2010 Cadillac CTS-V


The Cadillac CTS-V is simply obscene! It is so salacious that we believe it is banned in some neighbouring states for public indecency. Mothers cover their children’s eyes and other people stare when this thing passes by, even in places as lewd as that beach by the Dubai Marina. No European sports sedan has this much bling, short of a million-dirham Bentley. And the best bit is it outruns them all in power as well as price.
