Another car show season ends
We count the New York auto show as the official end to the season, which started with the Frankfurt show in September. In this season, our favorite debut was the BMW 135i, and BMW also made the announcement it would offer full Internet access in its cars. We couldn't help but be impressed by the Nissan GT-R, a massive technical achievement. Lincoln's MKS debuted at the Los Angeles show and featured the best cabin tech. Then there were the concept cars, our favorite part of any auto show. The next season kicks off in Paris in early October, and we will be there. 2008 New York auto show

'08 Saturn Vue Hybrid Green Line
The 2008 Saturn Vue Green Line is the cheapest hybrid SUV you can buy--in more ways than one. We like its revamped exterior and we can live with the spartan cabin, but its gas mileage falls short. Read more

Pioneer DEH-P6000UB
The DEH-P6000UB is a good-looking, good-sounding car stereo with great iPod support and some decent audio-tweaking options. Read more

'08 Honda Accord EX-L V-6 Coupe
Fun and practical to drive, the 2008 Honda Accord Coupe is sporty and looks good. Its navigation system, while basic, gets the job done, and it has added features such as Bluetooth cell phone integration. Read more

Bluetooth in-car calling devices
Bluetooth hands-free calling systems in cars are nothing new, but they might start becoming a lot more commonplace as more states and cities adopt legislation banning the use of cell phones while behind the wheel. Check out our full reviews and get ready for some hands-free calling while hands-on hauling. Read more

Dash Express finally hits the streets
Bonnie Cha
It's been almost two years since Dash Navigation first announced its Dash Express portable navigation system, and we're happy to say that you can now finally get your hands on this device. The Dash Express is unlike any other portable navigation system on the market today because it offers two-way connectivity (cellular and Wi-Fi), giving drivers access to a whole new world of information via the Internet and the network of other Dash-connected users.
