Today, I drove a BMW iX M60 from BMW North America’s press car HQ back to my home, a distance of around 100 miles. Several times during that journey, I cursed the penny-pinching executives at BMW who decided to stuff the climate controls into the touchscreen. As good as iDrive 8 is (and for the […]

As awesome as Pebble Beach and The Quail are, my favorite event of Monterey Car Week is probably Legends of the Autobahn. It’s just a bunch of awesome cars on a lawn with their owners and real enthusiasts. There aren’t any uber-rich people comparing watches and shoes. This year’s Legends event was better than usual,

ADVERTISEMENT A few days ago, Dodge made some headlines with its new EV Daytona SRT Banshee concept car. It was the talk of the town for a couple of days for its muscle car looks and Hellcat-beating power. However, its main attraction was neither its looks, nor its power—It was its noise. Artificial EV sound

A few months back, Rolls-Royce updated its Phantom with some snazzy new lights, an updated grille, and some killer wheels. It’s called the Phantom Series II (which is a bit confusing because it’s the second series of the eighth-generation Phantom) and it’s just now making its North American debut at Monterey Car Week.

I hate when I see an M3 and it’s black. Have some imagination, dammit. That’s especially true with more expensive cars, such as

The BMW i5 is almost here, with its official reveal just about a year away. When it does debut, it’s going to be among the few electric vehicles in its class. The 5 Series’ segment of premium sedans is often called the “E segment” and it consists of cars like the Audi A6, Mercedes E-Class,

It isn’t often that you learn new details about a car that debuted 30 years ago but, back in the early ’90s, there weren’t in-depth YouTube reviews, podcasts, or even widespread internet. So many details about cars like the McLaren F1 simply slipped through the cracks and went unknown to many enthusiasts over the decades.

The BMW M4 CSL is going to be a menace. If you’ve driven the standard M4 Competition, you’d know that it’s already a monster of a car. Adding power and dropping weight is going to make it even more extreme. So owners might want a color combination more in keeping with that extreme nature and

This new BMW M3 is an interesting looking car. Before you roll your eyes at another grille hot-take, fret not. I’m not here to talk about the grille. Instead, I want to talk about colors. BMW actually offers some really good colors for the M3 but, ironically, few of them actually look good on the
