2010 Nissan Maxima
the four door sports car is back

The Nissan Maxima was originally born into that gray area between a performance car and a sedan, or as they called it, the four-door sports car. It was originally in a class of its own but in more recent years that class has started to get bit crowded. Rather than being drowned out by the noise, Nissan went back to the drawing board and brought back with them a whole new Maxima to put it back at the top of its class.

The Maxima’s sports/luxury collab gives great performance without giving up a smooth ride. The Sports Edition Package comes fully equipped under the hood with a 3.5 liter DOHC 24-Valve V6 Engine paired with a Continue Variable Transmission with DS Mode and manual mode. Not to mention the paddle shifters on the steering wheel for total control when you’re cutting a path through that morning traffic.

The exterior body style brings some street cred; it’s half-sedan, half-amazing. The new wider, more agressive stance will definitely be turning some heads. Especially with the 18” alloy wheels, automatic sunroof, side mirrors with the turn indicators. The interior is no different. Wrapped in black leather upholstery as well as a voice-activated navigation system, you definitely won’t be disappointed. Your backseat drivers will stay cool with their own AC controls, and if they wanna grab something outta the trunk, all they do is reach through the Rear-seat trunk pass-through.

If you’re like T.I. and just want to let your beats pound, you’ll be glad they didn’t sleep on the sound system. The Maxima gives a real surround sound experience. Nine speakers, including three 3.5″ Twiddler® neodymium front speakers, two 6″ x 9″ front door woofers, two 6.5″ wide-range neodymium rear door speakers and two 6″ x 9″ rear neodymium woofers. XM® Satellite Radio – includes activation and 3 months of service MP3/WMA CD playback USB connectivity (iPod® compatible) Auxiliary audio/video input jacks. And of course there’s the DVD playback. Yep that’s what ya heard, nothing is left out in this beast.

And last but definitely not least, you can’t forget about safety. Nissan’s Advanced Air Bag System with dual-stage supplemental front air bags with seat belt and occupant-classification sensors will be there for you before you even know anything happened. Along with driver and front-passenger seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bags and Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bags for front and rear-seat outboard occupant head protection? Nissan definitely has your back, and the rest of your body. Now that’s WHAT IT DO!

2010 Suzuki SX4
Take a trip from the usual.

You’re on your way down the Pacific Coast Highway getting ready to hit the beach on this holiday weekend. You’ve conquered the goliath of traffic on the highway thanks to the pop up touchscreen nav, and you’re still trying to escape it on the streets. Yet for some reason, you’re still holding onto a full tank of gas. Life is good. Sitting in the drivers seat listening to the hottest mixtape, with a simple word you can avoid lifting a finger to answer your phone.

The best part about it all? You don’t even have to waste this driving time not enjoying the sun. You pop open the sunroof and let everyone else within earshot partake of this musical genius. Finally there’s a parking space in sight. Compact, over-sized, in between, it doesn’t really matter. It’s your spot. Now it’s time to pull down the beach cruisers and go for a little ride down the boardwalk. But wait, you need to get in that water still. Cant forget the toys. Boogie boards, chairs, and even some sand castle buckets and shovels, all fit in with the other 4 people that came with.

Now it’s coming to the end of the day and as you watch the sunset go down with your significant other, you still haven’t been able to get rid of that smile all day long. I mean life is good, but what’s this perma-smile all about? Its the realization that the 2010 Suzuki SX4 crossover is what it really is. You can drive anywhere in the city and can venture most of (if not all places in) the boondocks with its 2.0-Liter 150 HP DOHC 16-Valve engine; not to mention a 6-speed manual transmission. You can take your bikes, golf clubs, kayak, and any other toy you please wherever you go, but you don’t have to worry about burning fuel thanks to its 30 mpg on the freeway and 22 on the streets. And you can get it done for all under 20K fully loaded; that’s WHAT IT DO!

2010 Hyundai Tucson
Great mileage in a car you WANT to drive.

With all that urban living tends to bring, it’s not unusual to feel like the whole world is about to drop straight on you. What you need is some sort of reprieve from the hectic nature of the beast that we call life. It forces us to keep constantly seeking for some sort of serenity.

Now a nice day at the spa sounds great, but it’s really not our style. Here at The What It Do, we find the best way to clear our heads and relax is to jump in the car, crank up some tunes, and hit the open road. If this is something you’ve never done, we suggest giving it a whirl. You may feel that your car has nothing to offer to ease your mind, and it might be because your car isn’t the 2010 Hyundai Tucson.

This new series of the Tucson was named after the red desert city in Grand Canyon country. Hyundai wanted to make a cross over that could handle the rugged terrain of an SUV while still giving the feel, and comfort of a sedan. Every facet of this CUV is all about efficiency, and designed for relaxation and comfort.

The Tucson will definitely ease your mind at the gas pump with a 2.4L 4-cyclinder engine, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get up and go when you need to. The urge to drive like you’re on a Formula One track is covered with the SHIFTRONIC, giving you clutchless shifting, and an optional All-Wheel Drive package.

This Tucson is also the first Hyundai car to be designed in Europe. The interior is cut like a fine Italian suit, and offers beauty usually found in the south of France. But Hyundai didn’t want to leave out their electronic genius, so they included a touch screen navigation system, heated seats and a clear set of LCD displayed gauges for easy viewing. A full hands free Bluetooth system allows you to simply speak to control the componets without ever taking a hand off the wheel.

This smooth ride was designed to relieve stress at all costs. From the lines of the exterior to the shape, size and contour of the doors, you cant help but feel relieved around this one of a kind CUV.

As you take the drive to serenity, some scenery will be too good to not take a second look. Pull over to the side of the road, and recline the seat, and look out the full panoramic sunroof. Bask in the sun, and feel the stress escape in the peaceful environment that only the new 2010 Hyundai Tucson can offer. That’s WHAT IT DO…

2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
A Compact Utility Vehicle that gets the job done.

The 2010 Outlander is not your typical monster of an SUV. While most SUVs these days seem to keep getting bigger and bulkier, Mitsubishi’s latest compact utility vehicle went the opposite direction, cutting size and weight, leaving a lean and mean ride.

This new Outlander is more compact and sophisticated, like a fine-tuned athlete. If your usual family wagon SUV is the NFL defensive line, then you could compare the Outlander to a running back; your everyday workhorse, yet smart, agile and able to move. It’s safe to say that when you are in need, you can count on this CUV.

And just like you compare an athlete’s performance level, you must hit the stat charts. So hold on to your New Era caps and sweat bands cause here it goes:

• 2.4L MIVEC 230 Horsepower V6
• SportTronic 6 Speed Automatic Transmission
• Super All-Wheel Drive Control
• Idle Neutral Logic Technology
• 40 GB Hard-Drive Navi System
• FUSE Handsfree Link System
• 7″ Touch Screen
• Magnesium Paddle Shifters
• 18” Alloy Wheels
• Full Leather Interior
• Heated Seats
• Chrome/Silver Detailing
• Flap-fold Tailgate

You need anymore nitty gritty? I didn’t think so. The only thing required now is… a pen.

Get ready to sign that number one draft pick, and all you can do is WIN WIN WIN, rolling the 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander. Don’t hesitate on getting this crossover!

2010 Honda Civic Hybrid
Great mileage in a car you WANT to drive.

I know you have heard of the SMART CAR, but did you know those little things only get 35 mpg? If that’s smart, then the 2010 Honda Civic Hybrid should be a Genius Car. Under the hood of this hybrid you’ll find a 1.3-liter, 8-valve i-VTEC® 4-cylinder gasoline engine that pulls in 45 MPG on the highway. In a normal-sized car. That’s MENSA smart.

Not to mention all of the interior features which include a voice-activated navigation system, Bluetooth capabilities, and an illuminating steering wheel that puts the controls at your finger tips. All those perks also mean more time is spent with your eyes on the road and less time trying to punch in an address on your GPS or change tracks on your tunes. That’s definitely What It Do.

Watch as host Macklyn Moore III takes us through the streets of the NOHO District and gives up a consumer insight review on the Honda Civic Hybrid 2010.

2010 Infiniti fx35
Class like no other…

This Infiniti rolls to a unique tune, composed by the one and only John Barry. You heard right, we’re talking composed, straight classical music.

Dressed up like a black tux with a matching bow tie, this Infiniti is hiding enough gadgets to be a creation straight from Q-Branch and is nothing short of a masterpiece. Have you caught on yet? Some of you may have, but let me break it down for you less-seasoned, not quite with it individuals…

The 2010 Infiniti FX35 is not only eye candy, it comes ready for Bond; James Bond. Everything in this perfectly designed crossover has that Q touch in its DNA. Infiniti has carefully pieced together everything from Dynamic Monitoring Traction Control to the secret stashed coat hanger.

297 horses of raw power are supplied in a V6 All-Wheel drive, so it has no problem fighting off the bad guys, and the FX35’s Complete 360 Bird’s Eye view will show you what your up against using 4 cameras hidden on all sides of the ride.

On the winding roads of the Swiss alps or in the busy streets of Los Angeles, the Hard Drive Nav with Voice Recognition will let you know where you need to be. You can avoid the heat coming from hired assassins or just avoid those Sunday slow old-lady drivers causing traffic, while on your way to any Zagat-Rated Restaurant. Just make sure you check the Real-Time Weather and the 3-D Building Specs, all supplied on a 7-inch screen.

And best not forget about the iPod interface and USB port for the vital intel. And the FX isn’t done yet. From the Kimono inspired pilot/co-pilot seats and intelligent dash, to the power-folding rear seats (to make room for that Louie V trunk), make for a Fonzworth Bentley approved ride.

And Lets be real… all the crazy rides in those Bond flicks wont keep you safe like this Infiniti. Dual Front Airbags, side and Curtain airbags are ready to deploy at the moment of impact. Goldeneye? More like Gold N’ Fly. Whether you have a Masters degree, or a diploma in street knowledge, you know the FX 35 is WHAT IT DO.

2010 Nissan Armada
Nissan’s flagship SUV.

The new 2010 Platinum Edition Nissan Armada is more than livin’ large in the SUV rat race. “Rollin’ eight deep on 20 inch Blades, cuttin’ through those urban city streets“, might be a more fitting title. This SUV comes in right up top like fun on a party bus; just add that pinch of swag.

This edition of the Armada comes fully loaded with a Hard Drive Navigation System, DVD Entertainment System, Front Sonar System, and a Power sliding glass moon-roof just to enjoy some rays. And that’s all before the premium completely wrapped interior. Don’t wait to hear, “How YOU doin’? “, when its plain to see this ride is WHAT IT DO!

This Platinum Edition Armada is massive on the inside, and keeps you on high alert with that Hard Drive Navigation System and the onboard Entertainment System that includes, an ear encompassing, Bose Digital Audio System fixed with AM/FM & Satellite Radio. Together with a single disc CD Player can only be had in the Platinum. These Bose speakers will slap you with sound from 12 different directions satisfying every music craving urge you could ever have. And you can’t forget about the hand-free Bluetooth capabilities: the sound system helps out in more ways than one.

And when it’s time to act like a Desperate Housewife or the All-American Dad, the Platinum Edition still has you covered. The back seat is equipped with a DVD player that acts a good babysitter when all you can hear from the back seat is, “Are we there yet?”. And again this Armada has your back. Cause you ain’t Ice Cube by any stretch, so just throw back the two pairs of wireless headsets to solve the issue. Just when you think this Platinum Edition has no more to offer, you best check up on it.

Just in case the city streets get too suffocating, and you need some fresh air, you can head to anywhere you please with the optional limited slip 4-wheel drive. Just get at all the 317 horses to get where you need to be, and quick if needs be.

Is there much left to cover? You can get at all the other details if you please, if you feel the need. You may be drippin’ in bling, and lined up nice and clean, don’t get caught reppin’ that hoopty. Just trust….. The 2010 Nissan Armada Platinum Edition is WHAT IT DO!

2010 Suzuki Kizashi
Check out the exterior. Click to watch the video.

You know the company Suzuki, right? Of course you do. Well now you are gonna have to forget everything you thought you knew about them.

This isn’t one of those little red jeeps from the 90′s, and is most definitely not a sport motorcycle. This is a complete departure from any Suzuki you’ve seen before, and if the name Kizashi is any indication (Japanese for “something great is coming”), then we can expect a lot of good things coming from them in the near future.

Lets start out with the exterior. The first thing you’ll notice is the euro-styling that’ll have people looking twice to see if that was a Jetta that just passed them. Sitting on 18 inch wheels, from the big grille in the front, to the dual integrated exhaust in the back, this car looks mean all around.
Check it out the video review of the exterior with KMAX.
