One look at the Volvo C30 and you may think hot hatch, but Volvo actually considers it a luxury coupe. Perhaps it doesn’t appear luxurious at first glance, but spend some time with this Swedish coupe and it will make sense. After a day out in the C30, I got it. The subtle, but elegant styling cues, as well as its spirited driving characteristics makes this an excellent choice for those who want a zippy car that also exudes luxury.

Over the past year, I tested out a foam cannon along with a snow foam cleanser for all of my car detailing. This Chemical Guys Torq foam cannon makes it easy to apply soap on your vehicle during a car wash, but more importantly it works effectively at cleaning dirt and grime by doing a pre-soak.

If you’re one of those people who jokingly refer to the Porsche Boxster as “the poor man’s Porsche”, then I’m confident you’ve never driven one. The second generation Boxster, also known as the 987, is a beautiful piece of machinery. The car looks fantastic and driving it is an absolute pleasure.

It had spectacular reviews, so ordering it was a no-brainer for me.
