This week on Let's Talk Cars, more from our slew of new car reviews, walk arounds and test drives - Chevrolet HHR, Nissan Pathfinder, and a base-model Volkswagen Passat with a peppy 6-speed manual transmission.

First, VehicleVoice correspondent David Barrett climbs inside Chevy's take on the PT Cruiser. The HHR has a lot of great things going for it, including its fun, retro looks, but a lack of horsepower and some styling issues come up in our review.

Next, host Cameron Barrett brings you this week's Rev It Up - with 90-seconds on the Nissan Pathfinder. This medium-sized SUV isn't afraid to get its wheels dirty or its tow ring used.

And finally, we drive a base model Volkswagen Passat, one of the best values out there for your money. But the excellent 6-speed transmission causes some heartache because of its lack of availability in higher end models. The Passat won AutoPacific's coveted 2006 Vehicle Satisfaction Award for Premium Mid-Size Cars.
