Carroll Shelby took Chrysler’s humble Dodge Omni, added 175 turbocharged horsepower and created the GLH-S—a rare little hatchback that could go Mustang hunting and now brings serious collector money.

The 1985 K-20 Silverado is all about old-school simplicity, square-body styling, and rugged truck character. The 2026 Silverado 1500...

The 2026 Subaru Impreza RS may be the Subaru you forgot still existed. With standard AWD, a practical hatchback body and a 180-hp boxer engine, it makes a strong case for buyers who want something lower and more car-like than a Crosstrek—though its price puts it surprisingly close to a WRX.

Honda may be considering an Accord-based SUV with a hatch, added ride height and more cargo space. In other words, the Accord wagon may be coming back—just under a different name.

The Chevy Beretta Z26 was never truly great or forgotten—but it was memorable. Thirty years later, clean survivors are getting harder to find, collector interest is growing and prices may finally be catching up.

SUVs may be popular with older buyers, but a good used minivan can be easier to enter, cheaper to own and more comfortable to drive. These five affordable choices deserve a closer look.

A Bluetooth OBD scanner can be a smart used-car shopping tool, but it is not a crystal ball. Here’s what these devices can reveal, what they miss, and why a clean scan should never replace a real mechanic’s inspection.

The Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 was easy to overlook when it was new, but this strange DaimlerChrysler-era coupe had serious Mercedes-AMG DNA hiding under its oddball styling. With 330 horsepower, rear-wheel drive, and real performance hardware, it may be one of the most interesting forgotten used-car bargains left.

Reports of the Nissan Altima’s death were premature, as Nissan has confirmed a 2027 model. Still, the larger and more refined Sentra appears ready to inherit much of the Altima’s role.

Most people saw a boxy family crossover. Enthusiasts saw something entirely different—a Taurus SHO-powered wagon with room for seven, all-wheel drive, and surprising performance. Comfortable, practical, and still affordable on the used market, the Ford Flex may be one of the most underrated vehicles Ford has ever built.

The Honda Fit combined low running costs, clever Magic Seats and surprising driving fun. Honda discontinued it in America, but rising used prices suggest buyers never stopped wanting one.

Used Toyota Tacomas are famous for holding their value, but lately the prices can feel almost absurd. Between Toyota’s reliability reputation, strong resale value, loyal buyers, and the COVID-era used-truck shortage, the Tacoma became one of the most expensive used pickups on the market. Here’s why the “Tacoma tax” is very real.

Cash for Clunkers was sold as a way to help the auto industry and get older, inefficient vehicles off the road. But for car enthusiasts, it became something far more painful: a government-backed crusher that wiped out affordable used cars, parts donors, future classics, and collectible vehicles before anyone realized they were worth saving.

The AMC Eagle may be gone, but its influence is everywhere. Long before crossovers filled American driveways, AMC built a lifted, four-wheel-drive wagon that predicted the future. Rugged, odd, useful, and way ahead of its time, the Eagle deserves its place among the cars we still miss.

Before every luxury brand decided it needed a stupidly fast SUV, GMC built the Typhoon — a turbocharged, all-wheel-drive two-door oddball that helped invent the muscle SUV. With 280 horsepower, a 5.3-second 0–60 run, and production limited to just 4,697 units, the Typhoon was strange, quick, impractical, and absolutely unforgettable.

The Pontiac Solstice, much like its namesake implies, came and went like that special kind of Summer. Captivating, exciting, memorable, and yet all too brief, Bob Lutz’s dream car had everything we could have wanted in a twenty-thousand-dollar sports car.
