Would someone care to explain the appeal of alcantara? Felt it in my friend's E60 M5 for the first time and came to the conclusion myself that its basically microfiber. I feel it just retains dust and feels weird when your hand is sweaty. I've heard it is suppose to wick sweat from your hands? But then why have the…

Thanks for the reply, now to save up for my own haha. Enjoy the car in good health "cheers"

If you do not mind me asking, how much did you pay for your E92 and how many miles does it have? I was looking around recently and came to the conclusion that I'd need 35-40K for a nice one.

Answer me this, why is the RS4 more expensive than the S8? On a side note, that M5 sure looks delicious. Will car max let you upgrade the exhaust on the car?

My conclusion has long been that no sedan NEEDs an engine larger than a V6. Floored my mom's 08 V6 Accord once for fun over the span 4 years of driving it, I just never felt I needed more power. To drive legally near the speed limit a V6 will more than suffice. A V8 is nice, my friend's V10 M5 is glorious, but all…

No, the X6s around the Silicon valley are driven to pick up the kids or international students with money who want to stand out from the SUV crowd (they seem to love SUVs, whether evoque, we etc..) The one white X6M putting around town is driven by a 20ish guy that seems intelligent enough. And I like it! :)

I think the old one looks a lot better. The new trunk looks likes it's hanging out (a la X4) but for a larger car like the x6 it does not work. The new Panamara has the same effect to the rear and I hate it.

Not sure if this still counts as "on sale today" But the E60 M5's V1o sure sounds great. example P.S. you can pick one of these up for 25-30K now, tempting is it not?

It physically hurts me to see such a beautiful car in this condition. Even in such an abused state, the car still looks great at certain angles (the paint is still gleaming too). I would love to buy the seats from the car... but on second thought, probably not. (Cue top gear episode when they bought E30's, and found…

My question is did he get all the Cygnet interior bits for his iQ or just the bumper. Personally I would want the interior a lot more.

While not as plentiful as Prius(s), I feel the Model S is more abundant here (South SF Bay Area, CA) than anywhere else. I am bound to see one, if not two or three when I leave the house. It seems to be the go to choice for the new age soccer moms. Here is signature model parked in my neighborhood.

It does sound how you say... nice indeed. Friend has a E60 M5 with RPi stage 3 exhaust and the V10 just sings. Pity that the dampening for the 5 series is good so you need to roll down windows to truly enjoy the noise. Otherwise its just a muffled roar and you don't hear the classic V10 wail. The RPi does drone a bit…

Composite disks and Twinsliding calipers on the S63/65 AMG. Because one caliper is simply not enough

X6 comes standard with 4WD where as the 5-GT it is an option. X6 only has 4 seats and 5-GT has 5. X6 is raised even more and is viewed as a sporty SUV where as the 5-GT is suppose to be a GT 5 series like the name suggests. A bit bigger in the back and slightly more trunk space. That is why the X6 sells surprisingly…

Let me rephrase what iam4cu said "Best tip: Knowing someone important." If you know people high up in the corporate ladder then you will get the job. However, being able to keep the job and perform well is another story...

I never knew the Enzo was so recent. That means F1 is ridiculousness as it came out in 90's

I have always though old Lambos looked brash or boring and never understood the fuss until a black Diablo creeped up next to my car on the freeway on ramp. We were stuck in traffic and waiting for the lights so I got a good two to three minutes soaking in the sound of that V12 as it crept forward with traffic, the…

Oh hell yes! That interior still competes with the BMW grand coupe in all aspects. To think the amount of rap videos this thing would have shown up in ( free marketing) Caddy should have made it.

Then again, BMW has a lot of crazy cool cars they never make ( or bring to the US)

The Cadillac Ciel! Much cooler caddy in my opinion. First time I have ever drooled over an American car's interior.
