		<description><![CDATA[ Volkswagen has been in a state of quiet desperation of late. While sibling/subsidiary Audi is reaping the benefits of a successful bid to compete on an equal footing with high-lux brands like BMW and Mercedes-Benz, VW itself has seen sales slump by 20% or more. Most of that slide was due to an aging [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was this reporter&#8217;s birthday, and one of the last weeks of warm sun and late days&#8211;the kind of week that just begs for a fun car. Perhaps it was kismet that the all-new Miata&#8211;the newest version of the car that practically *invented* fun&#8211;was in our driveway. Perhaps it was the pleading emails we sent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every brand has one&#8211;the staple seller; the for-the-masses car on which a corporation&#8217;s fortunes rest. Audi&#8217;s bread-and-butter line, the A4 comes in sedan, two-door convertible and wagon variants.  Of course, with the falling value of the dollar eating profits and ever-encroaching competition from Japanese, German and even American luxury brands, the A4 is more [...]]]></description>

And it&#8217;s true; 2004 was not a good year for American auto manufacturers. General Motors and Ford have been hit particularly hard, as for years executives have been forced to watch sales [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;d never seen a trail like it. After a couple days of melting snow, the mud at the Summit Point Raceway off-road course was soupy and slick, and deep as a moat in places. The rocks looked like boulders, right there in the middle of what was laughingly called a &#8216;road,&#8217; and the ruts seemed [...]]]></description>

We love the Ford Mustang. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Volvo, the Swedish brand known for putting occupant safety above all else, has done well in North America trading on its traditional strengths. Staid and solid &#8211; if a bit boxy and boring &#8211; over the past four decades, Volvo has had little trouble attracting enough of a slice of the safety-conscious American consumer market [...]]]></description>

Today and no longer a rookie, the Nissan Titan hasn&#8217;t lost any of its passion &#8211; Nissan introduced a host of subtle improvements and refinements intended to [...]]]></description>

The line, first populated by funky little econobox xB and xA models, is aimed squarely at twenty-something and younger buyers, many of whom will be plunking down their first new-car dough [...]]]></description>

Often overshadowed, at the low end by high-volume makes like Toyota and Honda and at the top by leather-clad luxury car purveyors like Lexus and Audi, the spunky Japanese brand hasn’t [...]]]></description>

We were cleared for take-off, and as we applied full-throttle, a big grin drew its way across our passengers&#8217; faces. As we approached cruising speed, we activated the ventilated, [...]]]></description>
