My dad’s cars.

Power? So a Camaro with a two-stroke engine doing 250 hp at 11000 rpm would be fine, because the V8 at the time only had 235 hp?

Explain to me the raison d’etre for a pony car with a V6, because I never understood why they exist. It’s like a diesel Lambo or something.

Terrible. When you are in a curve, your leaning angle depends quite a lot on the your rear wheel torque. Especially with high power-to-weight ratios, this varying between understeer and oversteer is quite significant.

Am I the only one who feels that it is not so luxury to plop into a sitting bath with a bar desk shoved to under my armpit? I get claustrophobic just looking at that picture.

I hate new cars.

The air suspension on my Merc reliably developed leaks at 100k miles.

Thank you for this article, I have long wondered what the point is with these things.

I for one love it. This is leaps and bounds better than say the BMW XM.

My naturally aspirated Merc E280 has a 3.0L engine.

I just wonder if I am the dinosaur who expect else based on a lifetime of being conditioned to what a desirable car should be - or if BMW has lost its marbles completely.

Future car archeologists:

First car I technically owned since my dad insisted that I should have it was a yellow Fiat 128. 45 hp 1100cc engine, got 18 mpg and topped out at 75 mph.

Did it resemble this?

Another SUV.

Well, I was trying to be amusing around the assumption that he actually meant passengers. That it sounded like six people yanking at the steering wheel at the same time.

Meh, a tad small.

Six drivers? No wonder it wouldn’t go straight.

O-T-T-F-F-S?
