2008 Toyota Yaris Hatchback
I didn't buy a 2008 Toyota Yaris sedan, I settled for one
by Chad9976
Pros: Good gas mileage; Toyota reliability; surprisingly roomy; stylish
Cons: No frills; no telescoping wheel; average acoustics; misplaced instrument panel; over priced
When I purchased my 2006 Honda Civic I waited months to write a review of it, but this time around I’m writing a review of my new car before I’ve even had to re-fill the gas tank. I’m not too crazy about it and I’m actually having ...

2009 Chevrolet Cobalt
A Not So Shabby Chevy
by customeright
Pros: Great handling (downhill). Good mileage. Some nice surprises in gadgetry (i.e. tire pressure sensors)
Cons: Somewhat underpowered.
One of the best ways to test drive a car is to rent one for a few days. Better still is to rent one for a few weeks. That's exactly what I was able to do with the new 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt. Now I can't say it's the best car I've ever driven; but is it a ...

2008 Honda Element
Filling a niche like nothing else, my 2008 Element SC is a winner!
by openroad
Pros: Quirky looks, comfortable seating, unlimited functionality, great stereo, spunky-engine, and impressive handling for a box.
Cons: Quirky looks, somewhat difficult rear seat access, larger front cup holders, real-world fuel mileage.
2008 Honda Element SC Transmission: 5 Speed Manual Color: Root Beer Metallic Introduction... Ever since the Honda Element debuted in 2002 I’ve been intrigued by its boxy shape and the functionality provided by it’s ...

2008 Ford Mustang
Not a "sports car" but...
by mrbios
Pros: comfortable, calm controlled ride and excels at soaking up ruff roads, pot holes.
Cons: V6, side view, visibility over hood, switches, e-brake effort, hood latch, mpg.
First it's not a sports car. It drives like an ordinary bland midsized American car. I was reminded of the 2006 Chevy Impala. I rented this car for a week in Connecticut. Roads are small and tight. I noticed it was hard to see over the hood. I ...

2009 Toyota Matrix
2009 Toyota Matrix - A stripped down.. less interesting... Scion xB.
by shoplmart
Pros: Very good cargo space, Seats, Sporty exterior stying, Engine, Transmission.
Cons: Gas mileage, Interior Quality, Price.
When the Toyota Matrix hit the streets in the latter part of 㢦 it was arguably one of the most interesting looking compact wagons of its time. The Matrix also boasted decent cargo room, good acceleration (in XRS trim), and though interior ...

2008 Toyota Highlander
Best car I ever had, HL Sport 2008
by peterfreedom
Pros: Good mileage per gallon Comfortable and noise free Toyota quality
Cons: Sound system quality too much cup holder on front seats
I bought it a month ago and went in a 3500 km Trip in Quebec province. I had no bad experience with it yet and very satisfied. I compared that SUV with Honda Pilot, Mazda CX-9, Nissan Muranno, Buick Enclave and even Hyundai VeraCruz. The Toyota had ...

2008 Hummer H3
Beastly, but not really as big as you think...
by twyatt2
Pros: BIG SUV looks, mid-sized garage required
Cons: gas mileage, not as big as you'd think. Also, Hummer Haters are out there...
Hummer came out with the Hummer H3 in 2006, to go along with its big brothers - the H1 and H2. The H1 is a civilian carry-over of the military Humvees, and is not really that usable in daily driving (too wide for most uses). The H2 is a BIG vehicle, ...

2008 Toyota Sienna
A Man's Mini Van
by jdmalibuNew Member
Pros: Great family car, excellent resale, nice touring ride, love the Dynamic Laser Cruise.
Cons: Navigation is poor, as well as the voice navigation feature.
We just bought the Toyota Sienna Limited Front Wheel drive model. We have put on 4000 miles in about three months. This is the best mini van out there. Some of the features that sold me are just too good to be true. I ended up getting the High ...

2008 Toyota Camry
The 2008 Camry Hybrid is Ridiculously Awesome
by random_distillNew Member
Pros: It's a hybrid that doesn't feel like you're still in college.
Cons: Dealership did not make for a friendly buying experience.
I was looking at the Prius until I discovered this smoothie. Whereas the Prius is a small car with a mid-size price tag, the Camry Hybrid is a true mid-size car for just a little bit more. The model I got was about $26K new, and the Prius I was looking ...

2008 BMW 3 Series
Close to M-performance without the M-price
by twhitestoneNew Member
Pros: Sexy, fast, good price, corners and brakes well. Quintessentially BMW.
Cons: Not an M5. Not a fair comparison, though.
I am, admittedly, a bit biased as my daily driver for the past few years has been an E39 M5. That having been said, I love this car. Specifically, mine is a 2008 335xi E92 sport coupe with the N54 turbocharged engine. In almost every way it keeps up with ...
