Compare an E65 interior to a 2001 S-class or A8. It’s easily a decade ahead. Sure, iDrive took a long time to get used to, but once you do it’s pretty handy.

Mazda interior, mazda wheels, mazda platform, mazda styling. This is a Mazda. I’d consider it.

What’s the point of Scion again?

Looks a LOT like the new Sonata (with a bit of the last gen in the rear). Who would’ve ever expected GM to take a note out of Hyundai’s stylebook?

I was about to say you wasted your money buying that warranty on a 328i, but then I remembered about the hardtop

Buy a 128gb USB 3.0 to use as a mini hard drive and the miniSATA and this could do most of my computing needs.

Just replaced the alternator on my E39 m5. Cheapest I found was $360. I had a local shop rebuild mine for 100

Worst reliability: 2007 VW Rabbit

I rode in a BYD cab in Barcelona. Surprisingly nicely built

Clicked on the headline expecting another Giuliani story. Pleasant surprise.

It could be an updated model. These "X new cars in one year" almost always include refreshed models (see Chrysler in 2012, or was it 2013?).

When we're out drinking they often ask if they can play on mine. They usually just troll creepy guys,

Grindr. If you say anything other than Grindr, you're obviously straight or have standards.

I got to see one of these in central Spain. Not nearly as expansive and slightly more populated, but somehow eerily charming and depressing.

I know, it's barbaric and dangerous, but I definitely don't want them. My car is completely safe and roadworthy, but my exhaust definitely is not legal (sound and probably emissions, too).

Not necessarily that old, but definitely a modern classic: 2001 M5. I even Lyft with it.

You can retrofit the vented seats, but that requires perforated leather centers and thus sacrificing the ostrich skin. Yes, ostrich skin. I will never sell mine for that reason alone

The Ford, Mazda and Honda approach of bundling this tech into packages to sell a bunch of extra features with it. This is an older approach.

But they SUCK on fuel. It uses a Crown Vic drivetrain in a heavier, unaerodynamic body. I think that's one of the reason's the manufacturer went under.

Tel Aviv has these things called "Sheruts". It's literally described as halfway between a bus and a taxi. They follow bus routes, but only stop where someone wants to and will pick someone up anywhere you flag them down. Costs around $2 instead of the 75 cents or so a bus does (if I can remember correctly).
