Those were the words of Peter Horbury, Volvo’s Chief of Design. Well, Mr. Horbury, I have to say that you have successfully met your mandate. In spectacular fashion, I might add, judging from the number of heads this car has caused to swivel its way.

                    [Summary] => Early last month we highlighted the impressive new Subaru Forester, General Motors’ subcompact SUV. It seems only fitting that with the arrival of the rainy season we delve even deeper into the world of cross-over vehicles — which are motorists’ best bet in combating the flood-induced traffic jams we will all inevitably have to face. Despite the snail-paced process the new excise tax law is currently undergoing, local manufacturers and distributors continue to feed the buying public with vehicles that scream functionality at every turn.

                    [Summary] => When most Filipinos think of luxury cars, the words "Mercedes-Benz" instantly come to mind. "BMW" would be a close second. In the words popularized by Harvard grads, these choices would be "no-brainers." Especially to those who wish to make an "aspirational" purchase, to use another Gen X marketing term.
