TSX V6 Acura 2010

With the beginning of a V6 powered Acura TSX, Acura will fill a place in its lineup between the four-cylinder TSX and all-new TL show luxury sedan.
The TSX, and most Acuras for that matter, come very well equipped in base form with a standard moonroof, cruise control, auto-climate control and heated seats.

Camaro Chevrolet 2010

The new Camaro excels by almost every objective and subjective measure: design, power, handling, efficiency, comfort, convenience, safety, and, perhaps most important of all, accessibility to the Camaro faithful.

It wears body styling inspired by the 1969 Camaro. LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS, and 2SS trim levels are offered. Two engines are available--a V6 and a V8. The V6 is a 3.6-liter unit that produces 304 horsepower.

Chevrolet Aveo5 2009

The Aveo5 has a usable back seat as well as surprising cargo space. Not surprisingly, the Aveo5 is underpowered, but the ride is smooth, handling is acceptable and fuel economy is impressive. Priced in the mid-teens, the Aveo5 is definitely an entry-level offering worth considering.

The Aveo was a hoot to drive, due to its light weight and diminutive size. It was easy to maneuver in tight spots, which is an advantage in city driving. However, the trunk is small, even with seats folded down, so don't expect to get much at Costco. In this tough economy, it is comforting to know that you can still get a fuel-efficient, affordable car that won't completely empty your wallet.
