Mercedes-Benz claims that the 2014 S-Class is the best car in the world. AutoExpress took the brand new German flagship sedan for a spin in Canada to see if the claim is justified. Since the S-Class is supposed to pamper its occupants, the review begins with the reviewer taking a back seat and enjoying the executive seat package. Well, I was pretty amazed by the hot stone massage function, pull-up table from the centre arm rest and air conditioning system which included five different fragrances. The reviewer proceeds to take over the helm and he was impressed by the way the magic body control scans the road conditions and sets up the suspension accordingly. Speed bumps are soaked up very well and the occupants would barely feel them. Taking into account the price and level of engineering and technology, the reviewer concludes by saying that the new S-Class could just be the best car in world. However, everyone has a different set of judging criteria. Perhaps, it would be more appropriate to say that the S-Class could be the best "towkay" car in the world.

After the launch of the Mazda6 sedan, the automotive world is now turning its attention to the fore-coming 2014 Mazda3. Apparently, a set of leaked images has been sent to UK magazine, Autoexpress, in an unmarked envelope. When Autoexpress approached Mazda UK to clarify on the images, a spokesperson from the company commented that these are merely conceptual representations of what the next 3 could look like, and are not the actual production model. I have a feeling that these photos were intentionally sent to the publication. The leaked images showed that the new Mazda3 is heavily influenced by the brand's latest Kodo design language worn by the CX-5 crossover and the new Mazda6 sedan. From certain angle, the boot of the hatchback looked rather bulky and SUV-like. The profile of the sedan is smooth flowing and bears a resemblance to Lexus IS250. The convex belt line lends an elegant look to the profile. The controversial smiley face of the current Mazda3 has been replaced by Mazda's new corporate grille. The 2012 Mazda 3 is the first Mazda model to benefit from the brand

AutoExpress has put the 478-horsepower Nissan GT-R Spec-V through a round of semester exams, and it looks like this carbon fiber kid has the guts to make it in the real world. It motored to 60 miles per hour in 3.2 seconds, ran the slalom at 74.7 mph

No prizes for guessing who one first place. Vredestein Sportrac 3. [inline 364.jpg] Here are the rankings. 1st: Vredestein Sportrac 3 2nd: Continental 3rd: Marshal 4th: Bridgestone 5th: Goodyear 6th: Pirelli 7th: Dunlop 8th: Yokohama C.Drive 9th: Avon 10th: Hankook 11th: Maxxis 12th: Marangoni 13th: Toyo 14th: Matador 15th: Michelin Tyre size tested is 195/65-R15 I have no idea which Continental model. Got to buy the Autoexpress mag or wait for the dennisk ftp to load it up. Looks like C.Drive has the value here. Hankook went up several notches from last year to reach 10th place with Maxxis close behind. Michelin right at the bottom. And who the hell is Marshal anyway? When can we even get Vredestein here? Got it from Tire Review Online.

Evo VIII Goes Back To Basics Evolution is all about adapting to suit the environment, and this is precisely what Mitsubishi has been forced to do with the latest version of its legendary Lancer Evo. Stricter emissions laws in Europe and the US - where the car will go on sale for the first time - have meant the Evo VIII is not the full deal. Unlike the previous evolutions of the Evolution, it has not become faster and more sophisticated, but actually slowed up a little and lost some of its gizmos. The tighter regulations mean the gas-guzzling turbo engine has had to be strangled slightly, so the importer has stripped it of some of the sophisticated technology and will offer the VIII at a bargain price rumoured to be
