The Challenger, Charger, and Chrysler 300 may be old, but they still sell well. The Grand Caravan is selling well too.

I have to say that the ATS-V is probably the best option here. The E9x M3's can be reliable, but they go through rod bearings, which are expensive to replace. Also, the convertible is much heavier and less precise than the sedan and coupe, as well as the ATS-V.

You mean a XZ4? Like a convertible X4?

In the UK, the noisiest vehicles are 10+ year old 1 liter hatchbacks (usually a Vauxhall Corsa) with a fartcan, driven by a teenager who fraudulently claims for every state benefit.

They resemble the nostrils of a cocaine addict.

Unlike emissions, loud exhausts don’t harm anyone. Manufacturers should just make a dieselgate-style cheat device that makes it go quiet when it detects it’s being tested. Provided the noise levels aren’t ridiculous, nobody will care if they’re caught.

I didn’t have an issue with the 325i’s straight-line performance. Sounded decent with 6 cylinders too. In Europe, there are worse E9x’s with 4 cylinder engines, some of them diesels.

Or an E39 M5. E39 interior is much higher quality than the new 3 Series. Also, it has a manual

When I was 18, I had a Honda Civic, and I really wanted a BMW. I thought it would be so great. So I test drove an E92 325i with a manual transmission. I found it so disappointing. I grew up reading magazines praising how BMW’s feel and handle, but the E92 I drove just didn’t deliver- it just felt weird and unnatural.…

$7500. For an old Rav4. 100% CP.

Touchscreens are bad. They get covered in fingerprints, and you can’t tell if you pressed the right thing unless you look at them, when you’re supposed to be looking at the road.

BMW used (and still uses) ZF transmissions, which need their fluid changed every 60k miles. But BMW told everyone that the fluid is good for the lifetime of the car. Now, you are seeing transmissions fail due poor maintenance, and it doesn’t affect BMW, because the warrantee has expired by this point.

It depends. If you just want a cool, fun SUV for some off-roading, its definitely a NP

Lap times matter as much as any other statistic. 0-60 tells you about its acceleration off the line, 60-0 tells you how quickly it stops, lateral g’s tell you how much it grips, but lap times tell you the end result.

“one of Alpina’s main aims being to find and fill niches in BMW’s portfolio.”

Most importantly, he needs to make BMW’s the ultimate driving machine’s they once were. Bring back manual transmissions, steering feel, and six cylinder engines outside of just M and M Performance models.

GM would be wise to give the Corvette a manual, and I’m not just saying that as an enthusiast. It makes sense. Look at the market for used mid-engine supercars with manuals. Manuals command a premium, there is greater demand for them. If the new Corvette has a manual, it would be the only mid-engine supercar on sale…

Its not the last wagon- just the last affordable wagon. Now all you can get is special-order Volvo’s and the Mercedes E Class. Or the Buick Regal TourX with stupid plastic cladding.
