    [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfG9RyYc_Sw[/youtube] The ethos of Hooniverse is the love for all things with wheels and an engine (or motor for the electric-powered offerings). When the opportunity arises to drive some stellar trails in ATV’s and Side-By-Sides we would be foolish to turn down the opportunity. At this years Motor Press Guild Droptops & Dirt event in…

Every new iteration brings about a more refined and compelling package. Such is the case with the all-new 2016 Cadillac ATS-V. With its available manual gearbox, magnetic ride control, and 464-horsepower twin-turbocharged V6 engine, it should prove to be quite…

    [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rNSF8kiwjY[/youtube] The Nissan GT-R has been a bit of a polarizing machine since it’s arrived years ago. Some love it while others feel it can be a bit soulless. Regardless, there’s no denying its potent performance. Additionally, the car has only gotten faster, better, and more potent year after year. The latest and greatest version…

It’s called a “wagon”, and it utilizes plenty of cargo room mixed with great driving dynamics and solid styling. Oh you don’t like that idea? YOU’RE WRONG! Say hello…

    [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlyaHJDiRA0[/youtube] The Audi RS5 is a sort of lone wolf in a strange land. Four-passenger, two-door convertibles are a rare breed, and they get far more rare when you throw in terms like “all-wheel-drive”, “aggressive”, “V8”, and performance. That’s what we’re dealing with here, and it’s hard to compare the RS5 Cabriolet to other vehicles…

    [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y41PSgKiMl8[/youtube] Usually when you meet your heroes you end up highly disappointed. I’ve driven all sorts of Corvettes ranging from a 1969 427 Stingray to a C4 ZR-1 and a C6 ZO6 at Bondurant. Sure I’ve driven C5’s before and yes the automatic is as terrible as everybody says that it is, but the Z06 was a…

    [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9hzPsNmsQQ[/youtube] Honda wants to position the 2015 NC700X as a dual-sport machine. That’s a bit generous, as I found out after spending a bit of time with the machine. It’s less real-jungle-ready, but quite primed to tackle the urban jungle. It’s not cheap though. This bike is packing a dual-clutch gearbox, ABS, and more storage than…

    [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42TyZiixliQ[/youtube] I didn’t completely understand the unadulterated love plied upon the Porsche 911. I know that it’s a supposed to be a pure driving machine. I know that it’s a precise instrument for a skilled enthusiast. I know that I still didn’t fully “get it”. Now it’s time for me to understand, and I’m not…
