And when it comes to electric cars, one brand name that will likely spring into your mind is Tesla. Tesla has spearheaded the EV market for over a decade and has undoubtedly popularized the all-electric movement. Thanks to the combination of cutting-edge tech, clever marketing, and the antics of its eccentric CEO Elon Musk, Tesla became a household name, not just in the EV space but also in the entire automotive industry.

Pontiac Firebird by WMrapids - CC-BY-SA-4.0 Among classic car lovers and auto enthusiasts, few names have as much significance as the Pontiac Firebird. But, sadly, this epic sports car left the new car marketplace in 2002, and the Pontiac brand shut down in 2010. This has created a gap for muscle car fans looking for something beyond the long-running Chevrolet Camaro, Dodge Challenger, and Ford Mustang trio. Could General Motors fill this void with a new Firebird?

It has managed to build its reputation as an affordable car that you can depend on for years. And while it lives up to this reputation, the model isn’t without any flaws.

Chevy Equinox by Kevauto — CC BY-SA 4.0 The Equinox first debuted in showrooms back in 2005 and has seen pretty consistent success over the years as a popular crossover SUV. It was a first, as all Chevy SUVs models were designed with body-on-frame construction, and the Equinox was the first to have the body and the frame be built as two independent entities in body-on-frame construction.

It’s a sleek-looking crossover with modern look drivers adore. If you’re interested in a used version of this vehicle, you might wonder - what is the most reliable year for the Mazda CX-5? Most people buy cars used to save money.

2004 Porsche Boxster by Vauxford — CC BY-SA 4.0 When the Porsche Boxster came out in 1996, it had some problems through the next few years as all new vehicles experience. Then after a couple of redesigns, Porsche would find their sweet spot in 2012, which is the best year for the Porsche Boxster. If you’re looking to get into a two-seater sports car from Germany, but you don’t want to drain your bank account, then a used 2012 Porsche Boxster could be just the vehicle for you.

The Cayman feels like a driver’s car due to a stiffer suspension, and it’s very well-balanced, which makes it more forgiving than something a bit more powerful like the 911. However, would this car be a good investment? Which are the Porsche Cayman years to avoid?
