The extra money is worth it, just had my radiator replaced along with the valve cover gasket(2nd time in a year?) and a couple of small items at 75K miles and it only cost me $50 because it’s a BMW CPO.

I had the exact same thought, but the kidneys on both are too big. I have an X1 and it looks good from most angles but not from the front. 

I thought the same thing, I love wagons but this does not look good at all, they can keep it in Europe. 

The E84 is essentially an E91 wagon with a different body and raised a couple of inches. Mine is pretty fun to drive but it has way more body roll because of the heightened suspension, I am looking to put on lowering springs to lower the center of gravity and make it look more like a wagon than an awkward crossover…

I agree there is a dynamic penalty but adding this to a Toyota is not going to make much difference in the handling department. I do wonder how much more the panorama sunroof weighs compared to a normal sunroof. 

Does it really make it unreliable to have the panoramic sunroof? It really does make a small car feel more open and I love mine in the winter as it keeps the car warmer when it’s cold but the sun is out. 

This is surprisingly good looking, they got all the proportions right. I am sure this is the top of the line trim but it would still be under $30K right? If this had a sporty hybrid setup where the electric motor would add performance and increase mileage they could be onto something. I wonder if they made it more…

The BMW shifter took a little getting used to but it’s easy to use and intuitive, at least for me. While paddle shifters would be awesome (mine does not have them) the manual gear changes using the shift lever feel natural as well(pull back to upshift and push to downshift). Also I never hit the park button unless I…

Still won’t be replaced until the car has to be towed away because the key fob battery died. 

I had the Cooper S and it definitely was fast enough, but it felt faster because of the torque. The JCW has 210 HP and 181 lb/ft and the BRZ has 200 HP and 151 lb/ft with similar 0-60 times. I bet you could ask anyone which feels faster after driving each one and they would tell you the JCW is faster. If they can get…

The real question is will the interior smell like crayons like all other VWs?

I thought you drove Stewie around in a Prius?

AutohausAZ? Not always the cheapest option but they ship fast and free if your order is over $49 which usually makes parts the same or cheaper. Rock Auto had cheaper options or a lower price on some suspension bushing and ball joints but they wanted to charge me shipping 3 from 3 separate warehouses and it would take…

What a tease, like not getting the 1 series hatchback here. The hatchback looks great, with sedan sales tanking in the US why not try to sell the hatchback? To me a sedan is such a compromise because of the added utility of the cargo area, so you get something practical that is hopefully lighter but fun to drive. BMW…

I don’t mind the kink, it looks good on the QX60 which helps that one look less jelly bean like.

I think they really nailed the styling on it, the old EX35/QX50 was way too frumpy looking. The interior looks to be a big upgrade over the previous generation as well. I don’t get why the resolution is so crappy on Infiniti screens as well as the 360 degree cameras, a small bump in resolution would make a huge…

The Wagoneer in the junkyard looks like it was in better shape than Rustwood. At least it looks like it has less rust.

Dude, what a rabbit hole of amazing vehicles you just sent me down! I now have to figure out how to import a Volvo Laplander. Thank you!
