Chevrolet Cobalt 2008 pricing.

But I do enjoy the fact that Chevrolet installed a boost gauge on the A-pillar and sport seats to keep you in place as you verify Chevrolet's claim that the SS can manage 0.90 g on the skidpad. Prices should start in the low-$20,000 range.

The Chevrolet Cobalt LS sedan and coupe ($13,675) come standard with cloth upholstery, 60/40 split fold-down rear seat, air conditioning, height-adjustable driver's seat, PASS-Key III Plus theft deterrence, automatic headlights, two 12-volt power outlets, electric rear defogger, tilt steering column, driver information center and a four-speaker AM/FM/CD/MP3 stereo with an auxiliary input jack.

Review of New Toyota Lexus IS-F

Toyota’s luxury Lexus arm’s latest image car, the new Toyota Lexus IS-F, is a 400bhp V8 version of the IS model, and the first model to carry Lexus’ new ‘F’ badge, which signifies special performance versions – rather like BMW’s ‘M’ models. It has an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Indeed, the new Toyota Lexus IS-F is an all-new high-performance version of the popular Lexus IS 250 sport saloon. The car features unique styling and a substantial boost in power from a V8 powerplant.

The Lexus F designation identifies vehicles specifically designed and engineered for ultra-high performance and exceptional sports driving dynamics. F-badged models further emphasise Lexus’s pursuit of perfection and its aim to continuously push the limits of automobile engineering.

The new Toyota Lexus IS-F is powered by a sports-tuned 5.0-litre V8 that delivers more than 400 DIN hp and 500 Nm of torque.

The IS-F engine is mated to the world's first eight-speed automatic gearbox. Acceleration from rest to 62mph takes 4.9 seconds and top speed is a governed 168mph. Carbon dioxide emissions of 290g/km position the IS-F as one of the cleanest sports saloons in its class, as well as one of the most powerful.

In keeping with its sporting character, the IS-F is the first Lexus to feature switchable VDIM (Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management). This lets the driver select Normal, Sport or Off settings according to preference.

The interior of the IS-F receives unique styling treatment with aluminium and composite trim and special surface treatments.

The instrument panel includes an oil-temperature gauge and shift indicator-lights, while the "F" logo is prominent on the steering wheel and rear-centre console.

In addition to the usual Lexus standards of comfort and convenience, the interior of the IS-F features specially shaped and trimmed seats, which hold the driver comfortably and securely in place. The special sport seats are available in black or a unique high-contrast white and black trim.

"The intent of creating the IS-F was not to be a competitor to other performance saloons," said Bob Carter, Lexus US Division Group Vice President and General Manager.

“Rather, the goal was to create a true performance saloon in a uniquely Lexus way, one that is totally authentic with a unique interpretation of raw driving thrill at all speeds and provides a whole new definition of 'usable power.”

Review of the Volvo S80

Among luxury sedans, the Volvo S80 has always been something of an alternative choice. Through two generations, Volvo's largest sedan has spurned outright luxury and serious performance in favor of cutting-edge safety features and in-cabin technology. And, in a class dominated by rear-drive sedans, Volvo continues to tout the virtues of front-wheel drive, while offering all-wheel drive as an option.

There are plenty of premium-brand sedans that feel more upscale than the S80. There are just as many that surpass its balance and grip on a winding back road. Yet the Volvo S80 is most certainly one of the safest four-door conveyances money can buy. It also boasts some of the industry's most supportive seats and top-rated factory audio systems.

For luxury sedan buyers whose tastes run astray from the mainstream, the Volvo S80 is an interesting car to consider. And with a price tag that undercuts many European and Japanese-brand competitors, it can be a sensible option as well.

The 2008 Volvo S80 adds a new trim level to its roster. This is Volvo's flagship sedan. It comes in three trim levels: the front-wheel drive 3.2; the new-for-2008 all-wheel drive T6; and the AWD V8. The 3.2 has a 235-hp 3.2-liter inline 6-cylinder engine. T6 has a turbocharged 281-hp 3.0-liter inline six. The V8 has a 311-hp 4.4-liter engine. All S80s have a 6-speed automatic transmission. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Available is Volvo's Blind Spot Information System or BLIS. It detects and warns of nearby objects that may go unseen by the driver. An optional Sport Package includes driver-adjustable power-steering settings and Volvo's Four-C adaptive suspension with Comfort, Sport, and Advanced settings. Other options include a navigation system and DVD entertainment.
