“Full disclosure: BMW told me I could drive a bunch of pristine modern classics – including a Z3 M Coupe and X5 4.6is”...

Even in the desert they really aren’t that great other than in very specific conditions. Last time I was at Glamis I saw two Raptors that ventured out a little too far into the Dunes, one was sunk in the sand and abandoned - they must have hitched a ride to go get help or something big enough to pull it out, the…

If you are going to get a stripped base model I’d think you would want the Hybrid so you can get the mileage efficiency too.  Owning a Ford turbo 4 right now in a different vehicle, the mileage really sucks and never gets close to what it is promoted at.  I’d love to get a Hybrid Maverick instead, but would probably…

Manual transmission Mustang, especially in a snowy climate. Got it from my dad as first car when I was 16, put it in the ditch in the ice and snow at least 3 times, burned up 2 clutches, at least 4 sets of back tires and finally blew the motor up and got rid of it all in the span of a year. Plus it had bad wiring…

That is the correct answer.

I literally can’t think of any good reason you’d want to mess with this. Its not interesting or sporty enough vehicle to have just for the heck of it, and you can’t legally register it to actually use it. Then try to get parts, etc. for it if you start wearing stuff out on it, plus its just ugly and looks like an…

ExxonMobil not ExxonMobile.  

Makes sense they are up there closer to motor city and midwest where people still try more to buy domestic. In the area I’m in the only domestic vehicles you see commonly that aren’t pickup trucks are Teslas.

EV6 looks kind of bad in photos but I think looks pretty good in person.

All three of them must be decent.  I literally don’t remember the last time I’ve seen a Buick dealer.  Maybe 1989? 

That’s exactly correct. I’ve tried twice now to buy a Kia, a while back wanted a Stinger, and recently an EV6 and the horrible dealers experiences at multiple Kia dealers pushed me back to more expensive vehicles but decent dealers. I still would like an EV6 and might be willing to put up with the horrible dealers to…

I’d say that’s true in that very few riders can do what Josh Herrin did in the video as a pro rider and do the quarter mile that quickly, however most people that own liter bikes even if they aren’t great riders can easily out accelerate most every car on the market. This video was showing 3 of the fastest cars in the…

Fascinating if not a bit creepy. I wish I had this article last week, as I happened upon of the 6 Vinfast stores here in the US over the weekend and would have stopped and spent more time there.  It was in a high-end mall and at first glance I thought was a Tesla showroom until I saw the vehicle.  They definitely…

I love the R8, that had to be a good phone call to get: “can you come to Spain and drive a limited edition R8 on a race track?” Heck yeah.
My only gripe on it is that the newer ones just don’t look as exotic or special to me as the older R8's did, I saw one a couple weeks ago parked and at first glance they don’t look…

Sad but true, same thing here. I’ve been to lots of car and motorcycle races and pro sports games with “free” tickets from work but at this point would probably not go if I had to pay for them out of my own pocket with how expensive tickets have gotten, especially for good seats or VIP areas.

Maybe I’m getting cynical in this world of inflated prices but $22k is less than I was expecting for the starting price. Considering the technology and power, plus being a BMW, that price matches up well with competitive KTM, Ducati and Aprilia machines. I haven’t spent a lot of miles on BMW’s sport bikes, but the…

Interesting take by Maverick. I always kind of thought that the serious crashes and deaths were higher in these entry classes just because of the inexperience and lower skill level of the riders, but its very true that the bikes are all so similar that there is too much parity and they do ride in packs and have a …

Yeah but its a good story and good marketing tool for Indian.
They’ve already got Jared Mees and Briar who can battle for the championship. Having the fastest female on the team, even if she isn’t as competitive on the bigger bikes, is still a good thing for them. Plus she’s got a good personality and is a great…

The Maserati and Jag were good options.
But I’d try to find an Aston Martin if that was my scenario.
V12, suspect reliability, great power and looks.

Looks just like the Tiguan in the ad right above the article.
Generic SUV shape/style. Not saying that is bad, I don’t mind the Tiguan style either and is better than going all-in on over the top futuristic styling that quickly looks dated. But I’d have preferred if they would have gone more the Honda Element route…
