2022 Porsche Taycan 4 Cross Turismo

2022 Porsche Taycan 4 Cross Turismo

Published November 5, 2022 by Carter

If you’d had told me 20 years ago that Porsche would be building a four-door, all-wheel-drive, off-road style, fully electric wagon, I’d probably have had a hard time believing it. When they started showing up earlier this year, I still had a hard time believing it was real. Looking a bit like a photoshopped homage of the stretched 928 concepts in the 80s, the Cross Turismo is the more pedestrian version of the Sport Turismo. In total, there are now five different versions of just the Taycan wagon. Is that crazy? Yes. But even the base Taycan 4 Cross Turismo packs a potent punch; 469 horsepower is on tap and it’ll scoot to 60 in under 5 seconds. The base price is right around $100k – and if that’s not dear enough (or fast enough) for you, the Turbo S Turismo Cross Turismo will take $200k of your money to half the 60 times. Today’s car may be the base model, but it’s got some neat-looking wheels slapped on it and a striking interior color:

1996 Volkswagen Golf Bon Jovi Edition with 10,500 Miles

1996 Volkswagen Golf Bon Jovi Edition with 10,500 Miles

Published October 31, 2022 by Carter

The Mk.3 Volkswagen offered an amazing assortment of special models. I’ve previously covered the Golf Ryder, the Harlequin, the Trek, and the 20th Anniversary GTI. I owned a Golf K2, and there was also the Wolfsburg Edition and the Driver’s Edition GTi here, among a few others. But that was just the tip of the iceberg compared to what was offered abroad. There were nearly 30 different specials offered there, and today’s example was one that was built to celebrate the European tours of various rock band – in this case, Bon Jovi. A strange pairing? Yep. What you got was similar to the 4-cylinder US GTi: dual-chamber headlights, tinted tail lights, sport seats, and Orlando 14″ alloy wheels as well as a few neat interior trim items. That doesn’t sound too special, but today’s car also has just 10,500 miles. Wow!

1995 Volkswagen Passat GLX VR6 Variant

1995 Volkswagen Passat GLX VR6 Variant

Published October 30, 2022 by Carter

VW’s radical redesign on the B3 resulted in a unique, angular look at still stands apart from the crowd today. And because the internals were based on VW’s A2 chassis like the Corrado, when the 2.8 VR6 debuted in the sporty coupe for ’92 it was only a matter of time until its four-door friend got it too. That happened in ’93 with the release of the GLX VR6. Slow sales resulted in Volkswagen’s refresh of the B4 Passat into the more traditional looking B4 for 1995; which saw new BBS wheels and body styling but the same dynamic performance. Today this clean and period-correct Emerald Green Pearl Metallic ’95 also reminds us of a time when most of the top-tier sedan offerings in the US could be ordered as a five-door wagon:

1985 Audi Quattro S1 E2 Group B Recreation

1985 Audi Quattro S1 E2 Group B Recreation

Published October 26, 2022 by Carter

When it comes to iconic Audis, few surpass this car – the fire-breathing, mountain-jumping, growling and popping full-throttle launching Quattro S1 E2 that saw out the conclusion of Group B. The irony is that this car was ultimately not very successful, though. It was, in fact, the long-wheelbase original, A1, and A2 variants that were very successful – winning the 1982 and 1984 manufacturer’s titles along with the 1983 and 1984 Driver’s title. The bulk of the Quattro’s 23 WRC victories were achieved in the older variants of the car; 1985 saw just one win for Audi at Rallye Sanremo, and there were no wins in 1986. Still, these cars have proven to be the most recognizable variants of the chassis – and there are plenty of copies out there. This one is based on a European-market 1985 Coupe Quattro, and while it’s not original – it sure looks the part. Though, to be honest it’s not a cheap toy…

1996 BMW 318i Touring

1996 BMW 318i Touring

Published October 23, 2022 by Carter

Sometimes, basic can be cool. Case in point – today’s E36 Touring. This is about as basic as they came; powered by the M43 1.8 with 114 horsepower, the car has cloth seats, no sunroof, and manual crank rear windows. This is a 1996 BMW, right? In all seriousness, that makes it cooler today. And, in fact, it has some nice optional equipment – heated front seats, air conditioning, a sport steering wheel – even body-color bumpers were optional on the low-end E36s in Europe, and this one has them. Speaking of color, it’s a great one – Montreal Blue Metallic, and even the basic cloth has a neat pattern. Other Euro-slick items like adjustable headlight control and a European cluster top it off, and it’s got alloy wheels too. And it’s in the US already! This means it should cost an arm and a leg, right?
