A quick spin in the 335i has us longing for the sweet cry of BMW's in-line six.
I wish I hadn't driven this 335i. I was fine, happy even, with our choice of a 328i as our Four Seasons test car. The new four-cylinder is plenty powerful, and its excellent fuel efficiency is oh so au curant. But a quick spin in the 335i has me longing for the sweet cry of BMW's in-line six. It's not the extra muscle, although 300 hp certainly has the ability to charm. Rather, the appeal of the six has everything to do with sound and feel. The six's smooth, distinctive growl is and always will be a huge slice of the 3-series' all-around perfection. And although the lighter four-cylinder should theoretically offer better handling, the six has the advantage of being much more responsive to small inputs of the gas pedal, which is very important considering how sensitive the 3's balanced chassis is to the throttle.

Dragon Racing, which had just obtained a couple of leases from Chevrolet to run at the Indy 500, will scale back to one car after failing to secure a second full-time engine.
Therefore, the team has decided to split up driving duties between its two drivers and, from now on, Sebastien Bourdais will drive on the road and street courses while Katherine Legge will do her share of driving on oval circuits.
Dragon joined forces with Chevrolet after spitting from Lotus and although it was able to obtain two engine leases for the Indianapolis event, Chevrolet has decided to cut back its involvement to 11 cars from this weekend's Detroit race onwards.

Believe it or not, a Toyota Camry in Singapore can cost nearly as much as a house in the United States. Why? In an effort to curb traffic congestion across the country, the local government has significantly increased the cost of a driver's licence... to $68,000!
As a result, Singaporeans will have to pay the equivalent of $141,000 for a Japanese sedan that carries a base MSRP of $22,055 in Uncle Sam's land - pretty darn close to the average price of an American property, which is $158,000.
If that doesn't relieve Singapore's road network, maybe nothing will...
