2004 Porsche Boxster

Although the Porsche Boxster styling mirrors that of the wonderfully curvaceous 550 Spyder from the 1950s, made famous in James Dean’s demise, don’t be fooled. With its distinctive styling and smooth flowing lines, this is a completely modern sports car. The Boxster name is derived...

2004 Chrysler Crossfire...

Like a bolt of lightning in the evening sky, this shockingly styled piece of sheet metal showed up at my office for an all too brief test session. Yes, the above description may seem overly dramatic, but this is perhaps the most dramatic statement from any car manufacturer in recent...
