Starting at $14,200, it retains value, too \u2014 By Mike Monticello               As much a high-tech showcase as a world-beating supercar, the SLR McLaren billboards Gordon Murray&amp;#039;s construction techniques and AMG&amp;#039;s horsepower-generating skills \u2014 617 bhp, to be exact \u2014 By John Lamm               Thirty years of development makes for refinement, and the fifth-generation Golf is proof. The perennial hatchback has a clean, recognizable shape and (finally!) multilink rear suspension \u2014 By Paul Fr\u00E8re               Any resemblance to the Volvo S60 is purely intentional...a good thing.

Bryant   Generous to a fault and as well-versed in the wines he produced, as in the vintage Lotuses he raced or in the Taylorcraft he flew on cross-country trips, Gil Nickel will be sorely missed. Rest in peace \u2014 By Peter Egan   Head-turners from the Los Angeles and Detroit auto shows, including the 2005 Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Nomad and the production-ready Pontiac Solstice. Plus, SEMA hot rods and a purebred Saab \u2014 Edited by Matt DeLorenzo   All the wacky, tacky, practical, technical and fascinatingly frivolous from the Tokyo motor show, including an arcane link between a Toyota show car and the grand poobah of fried chicken \u2014 By Dennis Simanaitis   Department  Your Turn People, Places and Things Road Test Summary Finish Line PS "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
