I love the time of the week I get to spend talking about cars on Nightline, the flagship late night show on DubaiEye.
www.motoringme.com is the site you want to head to to get the pulse of what is going on in the world of automobiles in the UAE. @motoringme_ is the hashtag you want to dial in.
So, this week we had a grand old chat.
And we started talking about the Toyota RUSH!
The link to the podcast!
Of course there are many interesting questions in the show, below is what we set out to talk about.

In the Mercedes-AMG GT line, most body styles feature three or more levels of sportiness. The coupe is available in GT, GT S, GT C and GT R, and the sedan is available in 53 GT, 63 GT, and 63 GT S. But the roadster has been left out with just GT and GT C variants. That changes this year with the new GT S Roadster, which splits the difference quite evenly between the two drop-top sports cars.
Actually, in regards to horsepower, the GT S Roadster's almost perfectly in the middle. Its twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 makes 515 horsepower, which is 46 more than the GT, and 35 less than the GT C. Torque is much closer to the GT C, though, at 494 pound-feet. That's just 8 shy of the higher-end sibling. Power still goes through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission to the rear wheels. In the 0-60 mph sprint, Mercedes claims a time of 3.7 seconds, just one tenth off of the GT C.

We have reached peak SUV. Behold the 2019 Rolls-Royce Cullinan, the most expensive and most lavishly appointed off-road-capable vehicle ever built. That’s right. The Cullinan is no louche boulevardier: Press the button on the center console labeled Off-Road, and the big Rolls will lift its skirts and ready itself for rough tracks, gravel, wet grass, mud, snow, sand, and water up to 21 inches deep. But it will also do 155 mph on the autobahn. And all the time those inside will be riding in the lap of luxury.
