The subject says it all... Car and Driver website, Road and Track, Beyond etc...

I'm talking about cars in general, not just for Imports/domestics or any brand...

I typically go to car make/model specific sites (VW = www.vwdov.ca/vwvortex, maxima.org, etc)

As far as general car information is concerned, I like Edmunds, 123review, and Autoweek..

I think Edmunds is pretty good, although sometimes their reporting gets tainted with their own opinions instead of just the facts, but most of the time its quite good.

But you have to ignore the user reviews, 90% are uber-biased.

Depends - if I'm looking for info specific to my car, I go to one of the Cruiser club websites.

there are others, each is best for a particular area of the car (engine mods/exterior mods/interior mods/etc)

Edmunds is great for new car reviews, and imo they are among the least biased. They also include user reviews so even if you feel their review is off, you can still get valuable feedback from existing owners. They also have a pretty decent video/picture galllery.

JDPower is a popularity contest, go there to find out if your car is popular. Not much use for anything else imo.

The rest is google.

If it's stock information I'm looking for, I usually go to Yahoo.ca and then autos. It's a very easy site to navigate through.
