Where Are the Touge Cars @ LA Auto Show 2019

This year we at CA Touge had to pleasure to slum through the floors of the LA Auto Show 2019. Unfortunately, there weren't really any new cars that came out that caught our eye and made us think, "I would love to carve a canyon with that beast." The show wasn't exactly a disappointment, but rather it had things we already talked about and seen (now just up close). I think we're all just underwhelmed when it comes to small, RWD cars that match the canyons.

SEMA vs AAPEX Trade Shows 2019

This very special episode of CA Touge, we actually have an insider who went to both SEMA and APEX this year.

That means they display mostly aftermarket parts, tools, and other things that help fix or improve a car.

CA Touge Podcast 9: Car Communities

New podcast episode is up! Hopefully, we'll be releasing a weekly podcast. The format has changed as we'll now have regular commentators, and we'll no longer be recording live at a car meet (as I can't fit recording equipment inside a Miata). It might lose some of its charm, but at least the audio is much crisper.  Check us out as we talk about the general car community.
