Here’s one example:

“The evening before I was scheduled to return the 2013 Honda Accord Sport after a weeklong test, I stopped by the home of my friend and automotive guru, for his counsel and once-over. He listened to the engine idle, with the same diligence as a pediatrician and a stethoscope. He stepped inside and, as is customary, touched every surface, knob, and fabric. When opened the cubby underneath the radio controls, he noted the slight heft in the compartment’s open-close action, and smiled.

“You may not realize it now,” he said, “but once you give it back, you’re going to miss the little things about how this car works.“”

Our followers on Instagram, many of them working in the car industry or at publications, are kept informed and ahead of the curve given we aren’t beholden to any manufacturer or publication.

You’ll find many a car that couldn’t get away there, and sometimes these images are shared free of charge with publications that ask nicely.

Here is one example.
