General Motors has returned to the mid-size truck market after several years out of the game. GM revived its two mid-size nameplates, the Chevrolet Colorado and the GMC Canyon. On one of the coldest weeks of the year thus far, GM provided a top-trim GMC Canyon SLE to […]
We’ve done this before. That was the thought when the Scion FRS arrived at LSB HQ. Unlike last time, however, this particular FRS was fitted with a 6-speed automatic. There were, admittedly, a few other noticeable differences. First off: the weather. Our first drive of the FRS came […]
Have you ever wandered through dealership lots looking for something that reminded you of the good old days? Do you pine for that muscle car look and feel without having to deal with 40 year old technology? If you have, look no further than the Dodge Challenger. Encompassing […]
As we looked back on 2014, two sport sedans stood out as some of the best. The Lexus GS has made several appearances, both in GS350 AWD and GS450h forms, in the Limited Slip Blog garage. Luxury abounds in this Lexus. And with 306hp on tap, there’s plenty […]

You cannot simply tell someone you drive a Mercedes S-Class. It’s one of those vehicles that has transcended the gap between the general public and the enthusiast. “Ah, an S-Class,” they’ll say. “Must be nice.” And it is! It is very nice, whether you simply recognize it as […]
Kia and luxury don’t necessarily go hand-in-hand. That’s a big problem when you’re trying to launch a $60,000 flagship sedan after only 20 years in the US market. Kia’s goal is to be viewed as a luxury brand by 2017. That push up-market began last year with the […]
Last November, Lexus handed us the keys to a 2014 IS350 all-wheel-drive. We were impressed with handling and the all-new interior. That car left us wondering what else the Lexus IS lineup had to offer. After all, there were a few notable omissions on the spec sheet. Thankfully, […]
