Vehicle Highlights
The 2009 Acura TL is redesigned and slightly enlarged in most key dimensions. This premium midsize sedan is available in base and SH-AWD (for Super Handling All-Wheel Drive) models. The latter replaces the Type-S as the high-performance member of the TL family. Base versions receive a 3.5-liter V6 engine that makes 280 hp while SH-AWDs get a 3.7-liter V6 that, at 305 hp, is the most powerful engine yet offered in an Acura. A 5-speed automatic with "Sequential SportShift" steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters is the sole transmission for both models. The SH-AWD includes a sport suspension and 18-inch wheels in place of the 17s used on the base car. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, front side airbags, and curtain side airbags. Also standard are leather upholstery with heated front seats, sunroof, wireless cell phone link, and 8-speaker audio. A Technology Package, priced as a separate model, includes 10-speaker audio and a navigation system with real-time traffic and weather alerts.

n addition, a new six-speed automatic transmission replaces the outgoing five-speed unit, which aids in dramatically increasing the car’s highway fuel economy to 29 mpg, a big 3 mpg jump over the outgoing model. City fuel economy is 20 mpg with a combined figure hovering around 24 to 25 mpg.
Both the outgoing 3.5 and 3.7-liter V6s return for the new model year. The 280-pony front-wheel-drive TL comes exclusively with the six-speed automatic, while the 305-horse all-wheel-drive TL SH-AWD will be available with either the automatic or a returning six-speed stick. Base TLs come with 17-inch alloy wheels, while TL SH-AWDs come standard with 18s. A new Advance Package for the TL SH-AWD adds 19-inch alloy wheels with performance all-season tires.

New Chrysler 200 Convertible is not a bad looking car, the Chrysler 200 Convertible will be performing at New York Auto Show, and while the design of the conversion is not the creation of the most interesting, because the rear still looks a lot awkward. Besides the elimination of fixed roof, we expect the Chrysler 200 Convertible become largely the same as partners sedan, with improved interiors and engine options all brought. This means that both the 2.4-liter inline-four and 3.6-liter V6 Pentastar must underhood, and the end result is a car that, while better than the model it replaces.

New Subaru Impreza 2012 will go on sale in the United States in August, which means that an official said in April New York Auto Show is very possible. Like the current model, the Subaru Impreza 2012 will be offered in both sedan and five-door hatchback body style, supported by a revised car Boxer 2.5-liter flat-four that debuted in 2011 Forester. We hope that the Subaru Impreza make a lot concept of the whole line for car production,

f there is one thing I’ve always liked about that particular class of performance car of which the Subaru WRX STI forms part, it’s that they’re practical.
Think about it, here you have a four-door sedan with enough space for the core family and it goes like the proverbial “bat outta hell”. And now Subaru has done right by its fans by putting the boot back into this iconic brute.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, that’s for sure. I do think the car is attractive, but there are other hot sedans (BMW’s 335i, for example) that I find prettier.
But going by the number of turned heads, thumbs-up signs and other positive responses I got while driving this beast, a whole province of people would disagree with me.
I dare say, and I know I will be raising Cain among the true faithful saying it, I quite liked the hatch version’s looks.
But then, I can’t say I was absolutely enamoured with the styling of the earlier sedan versions. So I suppose I should be ducking the stones and brickbats now, because the hatchback version was rather less than well received by the Scooby faithful, who wanted a boot with a huge wing on the back.
Well, they got the boot, and the big wing, back - and they’ve got the Scooby with the biggest pair of boots yet included in the bargain.
The car churns out 221kW at 6 000 rpm and 407Nm of torque at 4 000rpm - but that’s not all, folks. If you can handle a bit less torque and yearn for easier gearshifts, you can now also get a five-speed automatic with paddleshift kicking out 350Nm, but over a broader band of engine speed.
Having had the car for a mere two days, I can’t really call this road test, more a driving impression. And it left a good impression.
Look, Subaru is Subaru. They make nice, medium-quality family cars. With a growl and some real teeth, in the case of the WRX STI.
Essentially, the recipe is the same with the latest STI. The 2.5-litre boxer engine (a flat four, like the old Beetle engine, only infinitely better) is turbo-charged and wears a number 12 combat boot in the kicking department.
But it now also sports variable valve timing on inlet and outlet valves and, if I’m not mistaken, it will certainly put a blueish tint to the shins of most of its opposition, when driven in anger.
The Ford Focus RS comes to mind.
While the Ford’s take-off might be marginally quicker, I have no doubt everything else will belong to the Scooby. The STI is easier to drive, handles much better and is not cursed with the Ford’s elephantine torque steer under power.
The STI’s chassis is even better than its predecessors’. The suspension is far stiffer than before, resulting in “flatter” cornering, while driver involvement remains high as you want it. To enhance handling, Subaru has made the suspension system’s lower control arms from aluminium, reducing unsprung weight and helping the suspension to work more effectively.
The six-speed manual STI retains the Driver Controlled Centre Differential, while both STI models also enjoy the benefits of Si-Drive, effectively enabling the driver to choose from three throttle maps to suit conditions and mood.
Inside, everything is as one would expect it to be - neat, but not ostentatious, comfortable without being extraordinarily plush. In fact, sitting in a Scooby, you could be forgiven for thinking you’re in an upmarket Toyota, for instance. Except for the Recaro sport seats in the front, of course. Recaro - need I say more? As far as I am concerned they are sport seats. You simply don’t need more.
Just maybe, the car is a bit quiet. You cannot listen to Janis Joplin AND enjoy the engine sound with the windows closed and the aircon on. So, I didn’t listen to Janis; I switched off the aircon and opened the window as often as I could, because that special flat-four engine sound is music to my ears.
Build quality? Well, things tend to be a bit softer than the German cars of our world, of course. That big scoop on the bonnet that allows the fresh stuff to cool the intercooler sometimes quivers like a bowl of jelly on a rougher road.
The odd rattle did appear here and there.
Overall though, nothing even suggested it wanted to fall off on a gravel road so it’s good enough.
At R519 000-odd, depending on options, this is one very exciting car to drive - hotter than a Porsche Boxster and cheaper too - and you can take the family on holiday, drag a trailer around and tackle gravel with ease.
