Noise, Vibration and Harshness: Toward A Unified Theory Of Old-Car Ownership.
Noise, Vibration and Harshness: Toward A Unified Theory Of Old-Car Ownership - Automobile Magazine

When I tell you there are institutions out there that will lend you money to buy old cars just as readily as ordinary banks cough up cash to help you buy new ones, I expect a few of you may suddenly find yourselves ready, willing, and enabled to do what you otherwise might not have done. You'll run out of the house screaming with joy, sign the note that allows you to drag home the AMC Concord of your dreams -- the one with the half-vinyl roof and opera windows -- and the sad wheels of old-car ownership will have been set in motion, all because of me.

Egalitarian Motors: 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and CLA250
2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and CLA250 - Automobile Magazine
With the CLA250 and the SLS AMG Black Series bracketing its lineup, Mercedes-Benz wants to be the luxury carmaker for every buyer.

After years of selling cloth-seat, stick-shift, diesel-powered E-class and C-class taxicabs and front-wheel-drive A-class hatchbacks in Western Europe and spending nine long years trying to run Chrysler as its commodity brand for North America, Mercedes-Benz is back in the affordable-luxury game. The new CLA-class, which is due in U.S. showrooms in September as the 208-hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder CLA250, will start at $30,000.
