Drivetime With Vinnie Richichi-Road Test:2013 Volkswagen CC Sport

The 2013 Volkswagen CC may be the German automakers best bigger car effort yet. The CC brings the smart design of the Passat to the table but then adds a sports coupe look and feel to it. The result is an attractive, unique looking car that while may not for everyone, is sure a car that will get a second look when it is driving down the street.

Drivetime With Vinnie Richichi: IMPA Track Days

A few times a year, those of us who review cars and trucks for fun and profit get a chance to do some pretty cool things. Factory tours, driving a new model before it hits the street, talking to movers and shakers in the car business… even sometimes getting a chance to ask a car designer over dinner why they put those funky ports over the wheel well on the 2012 Gizmo Rebop Royale.

Drivetime With Vinnie Richichi – 1st Impression: Scion iQ

I’ve got to admit, I was all prepared not to like the Scion iQ minicar. I have been around long enough to remember the Isetta and the Messerschmitt… two mini city cars from the ’50s that were unique in that the only way in and out was through a door that opened the front of the car.

Drivetime With Vinnie Richichi: 1st Impression 2012 Mercedes Benz SLK 350 Roadster

If you are like me, a warm summer night, a purring exhaust and a top down on a roadster is just about as good as it gets. There is just something about taking that long ride through the backroads after a tough day that makes whatever it is that ails you feel a lot better.

Drivetime With Vinnie Richichi-Road Test:2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco

The name of the game these days in family cars is simply mileage. That is what the average consumer who is car shopping for transportation is looking for.

Drivetime with Vinnie Richichi-Road Test 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL 4 Motion

In a crowded class of compact crossover/SUV’s, Volkswagen’s Tiguan stands tall…literally. A high roofline and lots of glass make VW’s freshly facelifted hauler feel roomy and gives it great visibility from the drivers seat.  It’s […]
