2010 Jaguar XJ: A Controversially Redesigned Pussycat

Tesla Roadster Sport: First Drive

The Tesla Roadster Sport's steering column doesn't move, I can barely sit in it even with the top open and it makes me look silly when I get in and out. Who cares? It's got a 3.7-second 0-to-60 time.

Aston Martin DBR2 Recreated With Space Age Technology

2009 Toyota Venza: Part One

The 2009 Toyota Venza has the unique ability to elicit both howls of displeasure and interjections of apathy, but considering what's popular with the masses, that doesn't matter. The question really appears to be: "Is it a good Toyota?"

2010 Audi A5 Sportback: Five Doors, Six Engines

The 2010 Audi A5 Sportback is officially the newest A5 family member and the 800th vehicle with more than two doors to call itself a coupe -- but we'd rather complain about it not coming here.

Yes, as attractive as the prospect of a sleek Audi hatch is, there's no word yet on it making it to the U.S. The "five-door" coupe, which is as ridiculous to write as it is to read, will come with three gas engines and three turbodiesels. On the gas side, the 3.2-liter V6 tops the line with 276 HP. On the TDI side, Audi's 240 HP 3.0 TDI will carry the flagship status.

For those interested in space, as well as power, the nearly 17 cubic-feet of storage space is on par with the Audi A4 Avant and is accessible with a German-sized hatch.

Luxury

In economics, a luxury good is a good for which demand increases more than proportionally as income rises, in contrast to a "necessity good", for which demand increases less than proportionally as income rises.[citation needed]

Luxury goods are said to have high income elasticity of demand: as people become wealthier, they will buy more and more of the luxury good. This also means, however, that should there be a decline in income its demand will drop. Income elasticity of demand is not constant with respect to income, and may change sign at different levels of income. That is to say, a luxury good may become a normal good or even an inferior good at different income levels, e.g. a wealthy person stops buying increasing numbers of luxury cars for his automobile collection to start collecting airplanes (at such an income level, the luxury car would become an inferior good).

2010 Ford Taurus: First Drive

The 2010 Ford Taurus wants to become to full-size sedans what the F-150 is to trucks: the standard by which all others are judged. That's an incredibly ambitious goal for an utterly conventional car.

World's Fastest Convertible: 253 MPH Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport
