From the June 1998 issue of Car and Driver. It’s easy to say that upstart luxury carmaker Lexus got its start by copying Mercedes-Benz, but that’s not quite the truth.

From the December 1992 Issue of Car and Driver. In April, we brought you another installment in our search for the best sports coupe. After days of sliding through switchbacks on the Angeles Crest Highway in California, we crowned the Eagle Talon TSi as king of the two-plus-twos. Of course, the honor extended to the […] More
