Precisely!

I have two manuals and two automatics in my garage- each is fun in its own way, so to me there's no "right" answer. That said, for me a manual is more fun in a car that needs to constantly see high rpm in order to make serious speed.

Back in 2015 I was looking at a CPO Mustang GT Premium with the Performance Package. I drove from Louisville to Indianapolis to check it out. As soon as I sat down to deal they bumped the price $2k for the CPO. They also lowballed my trade because of non-existent "scratches." My wife and I...

I’m waiting on the RWD G42 M240i before pulling the trigger.

I worked as a BMW Genius(product specialist) for 18 months. Reading the owner's manual is an unfathomable concept to 99.999% of the driving public.

Here’s the problem; the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act is not some kind of magical talisman that restores your warranty when chanted in your dealer’s service department. If they are adamant that the modification caused the failure of the part you will have to hire an attorney to file suit against...

I just checked out the Darcars website; their “Call for Price” tactic is a red flag.

At least you know how sleazy that dealer is. If a dealer won’t quote an OTD price I walk.

Get an APR from your bank or credit union for comparison purposes. And only negotiate an OTD price. That practice has served me well since 1990.

I have an R55 Cooper Clubman that I drive to work; the rest of the time I’d drive the new ride(and occasionally the Club Sport). The thing is, I used to drive a Mazdaspeed 3 fitted with Koni FSDs and my Wrangler wears a set of Bilstein HD shocks, so I’m not sure that my wife and I would mind...

I do tend to hold on to cars for a long time ; I’ve owned my Club Sport since new, my Wrangler since 2002, and my M235i since 2016. I know either car is a great choice, but which car would suit me better long term is a question that’s hard to pin down. At least I I have the luxury of being able...

I'm still going back and forth between a 3.0 Premium and an M2C. I haven't owned a true M car since my E24 M6 so I'd like to scratch that itch. A base M2 is fairly cheap but isn't all that different from my M235i. That said, the Supra is the probably the closest thing to a new M Coupe I'll ever...

When I worked at BMW I found that even the most rabid disciples of the Church of St. Jobs usually preferred the BMW interface over CarPlay.

I would have changed it before it hit 50 miles- otherwise irreparable harm will result.

Those jokers are smoking crack; Dealers in the KY area are offering 3.0 Premiums at @$5k off of sticker as a starting point.

Can I assume that the complete kit adds at least 150 hp?

What did you expect? Next time fit some Blizzaks and try lapping COTA at 95F ambient temps; that should provide some equally useful data.

I'd just get BMW coolant; it's blue by the way...

It's dead easy to select the proper oil; simply use the correct Longlife spec- in this case it's Longlife-17 FE+. Most of the "horror stories" are third or fourth hand internet hearsay repeated by envious simpletons who have yet to even sit in a BMW. I've owned 12 BMWs since 1983 and currently...

The only Supra I'm considering is a 2021 3.0 Premium. I'd consider the 2.0 if it had LSD, adaptive suspension and three pedals. As it is, I'm leaning towards a CPO M2 Comp since a manual is available.
