Italiophiles have been waiting for an affordable import since at least 2006. That was the first of many delayed years planned for Alfa Romeo's return to the U.S. market. While the Fiat 500 isn't exactly an Alfa, it has its own retro charm, recalling the iconic postwar car for its motherland's masses, just like the BMC Mini and Volkswagen Type 1 (Beetle).

Porsche's Cayenne Turbo, BMW's X6M, and Mercedes' ML63 are a hit with buyers. They're big, comfortable, and most of all, fast. But they're in for a shock. There's a new kid in town, a true off-road super ute.

In the year since BMW Motorsport launched the 2010 Z4 GT3, the race car has achieved great success in the GT3 class series, including a ground-breaking win at the Dubai 24 Hours earlier this year.

This station wagon is just about as extreme as they come. It's the Lancer Evolution wagon, a full-blown Mitsubishi Evo with five doors. Same 4WD platform as the rally-bred Lancer Evo IX sedan, same turbocharged goodness.

It all began with a comparison test: 2005 Audi A4 vs. 2006 BMW 330i. After a hard fought 15-rounder, the newly redesigned BMW 3 Series sedan took the win, securing its place atop the sport sedan class and continuing a reign established long ago by its beloved predecessors.

The way the 911 range unfolds with each generation has become as predictable as Mission: Impossible III. First comes the "base" Carrera and Carrera S; then the AWD Carrera 4; Cabriolet versions of those; followed by the hard-core GT3; then the Turbo; maybe a Targa; and finally the loony GT2. It's all completed just in time to start the cycle all over again with the next-generation 911.

Sitting on the Mercedes-Benz stand at the Geneva Motor Show back in 2004, the first CLS astonished styling critics. Even die-hard two-seater fans liked its radical new four-door coupe design. With that hammered roof, arched body reveals and radius-ed wheel openings, the low-slung CLS500 looked more like a snazzy show car than a boring sedan. Then the supercharged CLS55 AMG soon appeared with 469 horsepower.

We almost got through an entire week without having a run-in with a Porsche Puritan.

But on the last night, two blocks from home, there's one of them waiting for us at a stoplight. He, and unfortunately, it's always he, is behind the wheel of a garage-kept Targa, air-cooled, of course, 993 generation, white paint, fiddling with the manual shifter, enjoying the evening breeze.

Like an expectant parent, GM can’t help showing off the ultrasounds of its still-gestating 2011 Chevrolet Volt. “Look, look!” the company seems to be exclaiming. “It has a pretty battery and the most adorable internal-combustion engine ever! Isn’t it the cutest thing you’ve ever seen?!” But once past the obligatory oohing and aahing, the question remains whether the newborn Volt will be a really sweet car or a colicky, whining, crying brat.
