Oct 22nd 2009 1:01PM The Maxima is FWD whereas the M35/45 is based on the RWD platform, lengthened a bit, that the G37 uses.

Panasonic Lumix GF1 reviewed {Engadget}
Oct 10th 2009 10:06AM I think they sacrificed the electronic viewfinder for the sake of size and portability. Note in the post above that it would have been an electronic viewfinder, not an optical viewfinder - it's a limitation (or an advantage) of the technology not to have a mirror and pentamirror/pentaprism.

Oct 10th 2009 10:04AM Definitely disagree. Perhaps it's fair to say most cameras take pretty good pictures in easy lighting situations. I know for a fact that the noise performance in low-light shots of Fuji cameras from 2 or 3 years ago is superior to what they have out currently. It's the same when you look at cameras like the Canon EOS40D and 50D - sure, they're great cameras, but many people are claiming that low-light image quality dropped with the newer one.
AltCar 2009: Coda Sedan test ride; wish we could drive the $30,000 (or so) electric vehicle {Autoblog Green}
Oct 9th 2009 1:51PM If you include transmission, you're probably closer to $10k than $2k.
Review: 2009 Mazda MX-5 Miata is still the drive of our childhood dreams {Autoblog}
Oct 2nd 2009 6:31PM Matt, definitely not the case. It's simply not safe to drive a rwd car without snow tires here on some days. And when I say some days, it could be 10% of the winter, but either way, it's stupid not to get snow tires. A Miata with snows will do better than a Subaru with all-seasons up here.

Sep 12th 2009 4:02PM Generally speaking, their rules allow either cars that either match EU or US crash test standards, though I can't explain the Nissan Tsuru, which is a third-gen Sentra one can still buy as new.

Sep 12th 2009 3:45PM Geo.Stewart, I've been in México since July 25th and to be honest, the roads are much better than Pennsylvania and Michigan roads, and at least on par with roads in New York. Also, México charges significantly more in road tolls than the United States, as a percentage of GDP because they have to build roads through mountains far more often than we do, as a percentage of our roads built.
To be honest, their roads are much nicer in terms of pavement although some of the layouts are questionable. That likely has to do with the fact that many cities in México are much, much older than cities in the United States and have roads built on pre-existing layouts. They also don't really have snow or roadsalt, though.
Cliffs: México: better pavement than US in many areas, sometimes the road layout isn't brilliant...though if you can, the drive from México City to Acapulco is *incredible*.
GM exercises self-love, plans to re-name Canada's Buick Allure LaCrosse after all {Autoblog}
Sep 5th 2009 2:36AM http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nova
Nova means exactly the same thing in Spanish as it does in English, and the difference between "no va" and "nova" is similar to the difference between "to go" and "Togo" in English. In the English example, one means "to go" and the other is a West African country. "No va" and "nova" don't even sound the same; in the first example, the stress is on the second syllable while in the second, the stress is on the first syllable. Nobody would ever confuse the two. Usually, I tend not to argue on the internet; however as a bilingual person fighting rampant ignorance, I feel in this case it's necessary.
