With the automotive industry effectively on pause and huge changes likely on the way from a long term product planning perspective, we became inspired to compile a list of our own drool worthy cars that should- no, need- to happen in 2020.

In an effort to lift the some of the dark clouds and to turn lemons into lemonade we are implementing a glass-half-full perspective on our new reality and we promise to keep bringing you the very best in stories about cars and the automotive industry.

If you're in the market for a used car, you'll hear a lot of people talk about mileage – meaning the distance a car has driven over its lifetime.

Sick and tired of watching potential customers looking for a three-row luxury SUV flocking to Cadillac and Mercedes Benz stores and plunking down significant dollars on Escalades or GLS models (among others), it couldn’t have arrived soon enough.

The BMW bunch in Munich have a knack of carving market segments into paper thin slices, so much so that the 8-series can be had in Coupe, Cabriolet and now, Gran Coupe flavors ensuring that there’s an 8 for all tastes.

Buying a high-end car can lead to costly maintenance and repairs down the line. On average, high-end automobiles can have complex mechanics and components that may require more specialized servicing.

Maintenance costs are one of the biggest factors to consider if you're looking to buy a new or used car. Most car buyers focus on the sticker price of an automobile when determining the average cost of a car.

Buying a used BMW can be one of the smartest ways to get the features you're looking for without paying top dollar for a luxury car.

Nowadays, cars are everywhere, and getting one is as easy as going to a dealership and picking one out. However, in the 19th century, building a car was the lifelong obsession of a handful of eccentric inventors.

The common wisdom in the exotic car world is that 0-to-60 is a better benchmark than top speed. There’s almost never an opportunity to hit the top speed anyway, so what does it matter if it’s 350 or 450 km/h?

Ask anyone who moved to Ontario from another part of Canada and they’ll tell you: Ontario is weird about Sundays. Banks close, malls close, and even grocery stores close. The downtown cores empty out. Traffic is light everywhere but the roads out of town.

Patience is a virtue. Granted, we find ourselves in short supply of that far too often but what little we admittedly posses is about to be rewarded. The GR Supra we are about to drive had a gestation period of twenty years, and perhaps there is a subliminal ‘good things come to those who wait’ message here in the subtext.

Whether you’re arriving for a visit, here on business, or just want to try out a car before buying new or used car from a dealership, Brampton has you covered.

If you’re the frugal type and prefer to buy used, Brampton has a few used tire stores to choose from: Noble Tire, JoTires, and Alpha Tire. If you’d rather spend more to get custom tires and rims, check out Car Kraze Tires and Wheels, or drive over to Mississauga to Z Racing Wheels and Tires.

Electric cars are the future. That much us clear from the bets being made by both business and government. European, Japanese, and Korean companies have all committed to mostly-electric fleets by the early 2020s

Looking for a good dealership? You’ve come to the right place! We at carpages have listings from all the used car dealerships in Toronto

Most buyers are squeamish about buying a rental car, and dealerships know it. So, if you pull a car’s CARFAX report and find a car came from a rental company, you should be able to negotiate down the price and get an incredible deal.

It isn’t illegal to drive a right hand drive car in Canada. However, it is difficult, in more ways than one.
