Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
As cars in the recent past became more complicated and packed more and more features, their dashboards became increasingly cluttered with buttons, switches and displays.

2009 Infiniti M - M35, M35x, M45, M45x, Midsize Sedans - Automobile Magazine
Infiniti's mid-size sedan, the M, has been around for quite some time, but it's still one of our favorite luxury sport sedans.

Infiniti's mid-size sedan, the M, has been around for quite some time, but it's still one of our favorite luxury sport sedans. We lived with an M45 for a full year, and not once did it require repairs. Even those in the office who didn't initially understand the M45's place in the automotive world came away from the test in awe of how good this Japanese BMW-fighter really is.

2008 BMW X3 3.0si - BMW Luxury Compact SUV Review - Automobile Magazine
The X3 certainly has the reflexes of a BMW, with sharp steering and good body control, and the X3's inline six is still one of the best engines in the world.

You know a BMW is getting old when you have to insert a conventional key and turn it to start the engine. This isn't a bad thing, it just shows you how quickly BMW has added new functions to their cars. In addition, the X3's navigation system doesn't have an iDrive controller, there is a water temperature gauge, and the indictor and wiper stalks don't reset to a neutral position after each selection.

2008 BMW M3 Sedan Review

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
Remember the 1973 movie The Exorcist, in which a delightful young girl played by Linda Blair is possessed by the devil and only an exorcism will save her? Well in many ways the M3 is the automotive equivalent to that movie. In BMW's version, a sweet beautifully refined 3-Series sedan is bitten by the devil and infused with unearthly power and performance, less the evil that Linda harbored. Read more ...
