I test drove one of these new while waiting for an oil change to be finished on my then-new 2011 328i.

No they didnt, that test was not in any way scientifically sound.  Not only that but I wouldnt trust a study commissioned by NVidia either as they have a vested interest in saying higher refresh rates are better.  Thats like trusting a study funded by Coca-Cola saying sugar isnt harmful.

So, why wouldn’t someone pop over to eBay and pick up a $200 LG V30+ that has 24 hour + battery life, 32-bit/192kHz audio DAC that also works on streaming applications? I love the physical skip buttons on the side (if they would work), but that is the only compelling feature I see here.

I’m all for a standalone device, ideally one without a touchscreen, with physical buttons, and android basis, but the lack of significant battery life is a deal killer, along with the price. It’s also significantly more expensive than the ipod touch.

Why would anyone pay $350 for a android powered “ipod” in this day and age? Looks like Sony’s 20 years late to the game.

Before anyone gets angry, I think the real reason for the pending sales flop will boil down to this: IF you want to stream, you will have to have a data plan for this second device. Will people…

seeing this hurts. my uncle parked this car in front of my house when i was in high school. i used to bug the crap out of him to let me buy it so that i could get it running, it was a deep navy with a navy interior. the wheels were solid chrome and the windows tinted. the interior was in great condition and smelled…

I don’t get it. What’s fake about it? It does exactly what a car’s grille is supposed to do...

I would like to add Dual-Zone Climate Control to that list. I like to incrementally increase or decrease the temperature so that I am comfortable year round.

Every body except actual buyers. If they did the BMW wouldn’t have canceled it.

Active grille shutters....

The smoothness of the I6 alone is worth it. CLA45 can’t compare.

I don’t think it’s possible to regret going from a FWD-based transverse I4 2.0T to a RWD-based longitudinal I6 3.0T.

Not a fake grille, these are active shutters. Opens when more air is needed, improve MPG’s when not.

The BMW service lounge is comparable to the Mercedes service lounge. You’ll be fine!

Supras were never sports cars though. Always been a grand tourer. If it was me, I would have just started with whatever Lexus most closely fits that description. The SCs were just Supras , so there is even precedent.

I was pretty intent on getting a Supra, but I also cross shopped with a Cayman and a Grand Sport. I’m not into convertibles so no Z4. Once they announced no manual, the Supra unfortunately kind of fell off my list. But until then it was for sure No. 1. I’m in my late 30's so the MKIV was absolutely my favorite car as…

Geez. I broke my collarbone in a cycling accident, got a titanium plate and only 6 screws, and was off physical activity for a month! Can’t imagine racing days later...

Thank you for this article, Elizabeth. In the decades that I’ve been reading about cars and motorsports, I’ve been left with the impression that Ken Miles was a quintessentially MOFW, Brit. Tough as nails, no question, but not very animated. My concern about this Ford vs Ferrari movie is that the general audience will…

I had a ‘53 Special as a DD back in the early 80's. Always thought it looked like a sad puppy dog (but I loved that Straight-8!).

Another racer similar.. Masten Gregory.
