I’ve driven an AW11 MR2, they cruise very nicely, but they aren't taking lots of items with you and you can't get away from the sun in one.

I’ve driven a Samuari extensively, your have to be really, really jerking around to get one to flip. They are far more stable than they look. Remember, they aren’t fast, like 65mph is the end of the world. They are great around town vehicles or beach cars. I’ve off roaded one, and was blown away at the capability.
Im definitely contributing to the average age of vehicles getting older. Between my brother and I we have 4 road worthy vehicles, a 99 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight, a 99 BMW M3, a 90 Jeep Comanche and a 62 Austin Healey Sprite. All are driven regularly and are as reliable if not more so than the 18 Jeep Grand Cherokee my…
My grandparents were Oldsmobile people, I still have their last one 1999 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight.
Having had an e38 in the family for the last 21 years straight, this one looks phenomenal. The V12s are bullet proof compared to the V8s. Contrary to popular belief, the M73 V12 is a simple engine that doesn't have pesky issues like the M62 V8. There are no plastic timing chain guides to worry about, variable valve…
Me too. I guarantee I will order one if I can get an electric two door with a manual transmission. I really, really enjoy driving stick shift and it's the only thing keeping me from buying an electric vehicle.
This car is a conventional 5 speed auto, not a 6 speed SMG. The SMG transmission debuted on the American M3 in the e46 generation.
Definitely, check out the rear hatch and area of a Porsche 944, they are cavernous.
Also the dashboard uses elements from the E30! It's a completely different dash than the rest of the e36s.
The 318ti is wonderful from a space perspective, I wish my e36 M3 coupe was actually a hatchback, or that they could have made one.
Toyota AW11 MR2, gas tank is in the tunnel between the two seats, basically in the least accessable geometric center of the car.
Absolutely agree. I used to have a highly tuned 2013 Mini S. Over 30mpg consistently and 197hp of turbocharged 4 cylinder fun! All coupled to a brilliant chassis. I’ve since replaced it with a less efficient but still decent 1999 BMW M3. Still get much better fuel mileage while hooning it than folks driving big SUVs…
I agree it's always the Ford trucks for me. They are mounted too high and are crazy bright.
Its modern Ford trucks that get me. I daily drive 3 different low cars, an Oldsmobile 88, a BMW e36, and and Austin Healey Sprite. It’s pretty frustrating, I’ve flashed many Ford trucks thinking their high beams were on to find out they were not. It’s all a simple trigonometry problem, the headlights are basically…
This car uses the S62 V8. The S52 was the inline 6 used in the e36 M3.
I agree too. I've been to a few races as a spectator, it's boring. The only motorsport I like to watch in person are tractor and truck pulls. I enjoy autocross racing but that's actually partaking in the activity.
This is the first thing I thought. Upgrade to real physical gauges!
I quite prefer the early one here. The headlights are better, angular and square. The later headlights look quite blobby almost like it was trying to look like a late 90s Mercedes which is not a good thing.
