		<description><![CDATA[By Jason H. Harper, Bloomberg News, April 21 The Nissan Leaf is the stuff of science fiction. An actual, no-kidding, all-electric car, costing less than $35,000 and aimed at regular consumers. Yet Nissan opted to wrap this revolutionary ride in excitement-repelling protoplasm. It’s the stuff of Amazing Stories magazine, if you’d take out the cyborgs [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bloomberg &#8212; April 6, 2011 Ferrari keeps its secrets better than a Cold War spy agency. No one saw the radically-shaped, two-door, four-seat Ferrari Four coming. It broke cover in late January, along with the news that it would be the company’s first-ever all-wheel-drive. Two months later, I’m tucked behind the wheel of the $300,000 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BLOOMBERG March 24, 2011 This is every kid’s dream. I’m sitting in the Batmobile, a gonzo fantasy car with parachutes and fins so big they look like wings. I’ve arrived at a custom-car garage in North Hollywood to meet two automotive legends &#8212; the original car from the 1960s Batman TV show (“Pow!” “Zap!” “Kaboom!”) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BLOOMBERG March 17, 2011 What a difference a year makes. Just take a look at a 2010 Ford Explorer parked next to a totally redesigned 2011 model. The one to the left is dingy, broken-down, a half-rusted tailpipe sticking out. Body panels don’t align and the sad faux- wood plastic on the dash is peeling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BLOOMBERG March 10, 2011 I’m blinking sand from my eyes, rocketing down a dirt road off the Sea of Cortez in Mexico. A hill looms ahead and my co-driver yells for me to gun it. I do, and all four of our dune buggy’s wheels quit the ground. Now we are in the air, flying [...]]]></description>

Abetted by southerly climes and convertibles, spring blooms! Consider this: Every time you’ve gone on vacation to someplace like Miami and rented a sorry Chrysler Sebring “sun machine,” you were actually [...]]]></description>

Eyes swivel and the valets get a hungry look. Pffhhhtt. That’s the sound of my credibility deflating as I accidentally trigger the windshield wipers, and cleaning fluid douses the entire [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BLOOMBERG Feb. 17, 2011 Yep, the couple in the VW next to us are definitely checking out my Nissan. But I’m not sure if I’m getting smiles of admiration or patronizing snickers. The $22,260 Nissan Juke is the unlikely union of a sports hatchback and a compact SUV. The result, to say the least, is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BLOOMBERG Feb. 10, 2011 Dios mio, but these streets are narrow! Squeezing a car through the walled medieval town of Cuenca, Spain, is hard, not least because it was built on the edge of a cliff, its founders determined to keep invaders out. Little thought was given to how automobiles a thousand years later were [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BLOOMBERG Jan. 27, 2011 Of all the ways to evaluate a new car, I have added another inadvisable but compelling one: the coffee test. Step one: Buy a large, brimful cup of hot Joe and place it in a shallow cup-holder. Step two: Drive like the dickens on a curvy road to gauge the vehicle’s [...]]]></description>
