2009 Mercedes-Benz SL550

Photo gallery:2009 Mercedes-Benz SL550Maybe we've been driving too many very nice cars lately, but the 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL550 didn't excite us much when it arrived in the garage. It's hard to follow acts like the Maserati GranTurismo and the BMW M6, and we tend to like shorter, more nimble sports...

TomTom GO 740 Live

When we spoke with TomTom's representatives concerning the new GO 740 Live, the navigation device was described as offering a "God's-eye view" of the road.

Alpine PND-K3 - GPS receiver

We've reviewed a couple of in-car GPS devices from Alpine Electronics, including the Alpine Blackbird and the Alpine Blackbird II, and we haven't come away particularly impressed.
