Automatic transmissions. Maybe not for us Jalops or Europeans, but 99% of Americans are truly horrible drivers that don't have the mental capacity to both drive a car and operate a manual transmission. And most of the Americans who do own manuals are really bad at driving them. I was talking with a friend who drives…

I don't know about the 4GC, but the 6GC is definitely improved over the 5.

That's certainly how they're marketed. I don't give a shit about what they actually are, but how they MARKET the cars. Coupes are supposedly sporty. And 4 door Coupes are seen as sportier than sedans by Joe Schmoe. The 4 GC may not be any more agile than the 3, but it looks the part, and that means it can command a…

Also, when these cars eventually hit the used market, I'll be looking for a 435i Gran Coupe over a 335i because I love the practicality of the hatchback without the bulbous looks of the Gran Turismo. Also, I believe the 4GT has a stiffer suspension than the 3.

Please stop flaming BMW for having a dozen completely overlapping models. The only reason they do this is to charge more money for the same car. BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL BUY IT.

I bought an 01 Anthracite Grey Metallic a few months ago. My life has never been more complete. Helpful hint: if you want to wire in an Aux/iPod/Bluetooth input (which you do) search Grom Audio. Only company I know of that offers a system for this that doesn't require completely rewiring the audio system. M5s come…

Like most Americans, on a compact Chevy. My sister's 2010 Cobalt XFE was probably the worlds easiest stick shift to drive.

I don't know how backwards Arizona is, but he could probably sue the state since their negligence caused their losses

That looks like a carbon frame Trek. Definitely worth more than the escape and can be completely ruined over a crash like that.

I agree. Voice controls are the way to go. Today I was driving, hit the bluetooth button on my steering wheel and said "OK, Google. Navigate to Sullivan's at Keystone." Worked flawlessly. Now if you have an iPhone, you'll say it 3 times, tell siri to fuck off and do it yourself.

God dammit Kenny!

You BMW drivers are the worst

You BMW drivers are the worst.

Damn, this sucks. I subscribe to Automobile, C&D and MotorTrend and Automobile was definitely the most unique of those. Really stylish magazine design and different insights.

I don't support it. This only gives assholes another reason to block the passing Lane. They do that enough as it is

Your BMW quote is DEAD wrong. I drive an M5 and I'm tired of people stereotyping BMW owners as egotistical, inconsiderate assholes flaunting their money.

I remember a local Chevy dealer last year had a 1998 Metro sedan with 17,000 miles listed for $9,950... which is probably more than new.

He probably just came to take his friend's bike after he broke his leg. I doubt his friend expected him to be dumb enough to ride it down the course,

My college puts on an annual bike race called the Little 500. I competed in it last week and took a pretty nasty spill myself. One female rider was in critical condition after crashing during a practice race, but is expected to make a full recovery. And she was even wearing a helmet. People don't realize competitive…

All I see from the front end.
