But in the Senate, grumbling over the growing cost, clouded its chances of a speedy approval for the president's signature. The car-rebate program, which started Monday as a way to stimulate new auto sales and get gas guzzlers off the road, proved to be so popular that dealers and Washington policymakers feared the initial $1 billion set aside was nearly exhausted.

Increasingly, manufacturers are equipping their droptops with folding metal contraptions, despite their complexity and cost. The latest example: the 2009 BMW Z4, the first roadster from the Bavarian manufacturer with a hideaway hard top. It succeeds the Z4 Roadster and Coupe. Others that have recently installed hard tops include Volkswagen's Eos, Infiniti's G37, Chrysler's... Full article...

The consonant quality of this car, from the moment you turn the key to the moment you gratefully leave it in the chiropractor's parking lot, is a wanton and cheerful disregard for finesse and delicacy. This is exactly right. You have to understand, after four... Full article...

Start with a lightweight, tube-frame chassis and then add race-bred suspension and oversized brakes. Wrap the vehicle in an aero-inspired carbon fiber body shell, but keep the generous cockpit open for wind-in-your-hair enjoyment. Lastly, wedge a huge, torque-laden, tire-shredding engine into the middle of the chassis, and tune the exhaust note so it scares the gophers out of your neighbor's front lawn.

Most of these cars provide plenty of power to go along with a supple ride, and in many cases, superb handling.Most cars in this class are 4-door sedans, but there are wagons available, as well as a...

A blessing in that it has seems to have transcended the usual automotive evolutionary process; a curse in that the car still, in many ways, defines the entire company. Porsche has attempted to break the mold numerous times over the past three decades -- remember the 928, and the 924/944/968?
