On a recent trip to the Texas Motor Speedway, I had the opportunity to drive some really cool cars on the infield road course including the 2013 Viper GTS, the 2013 Mustang GT500 and the Mercedes Benz C63 AMG, but the highlight of the day was the 2013 Volkwagon Beetle convertible.

It is a well-known fact that I am an unabashed Buick fanboy; I love the tri-shield like no other. Then I drove the new ATS. First off, this car is like a spaceship. The sharp, dramatic lines are stunning, The interior is flatout incredible, and driving it, oh man, this car is so much fun [...]
