bmw launches the x4 grancoupeturismomsport

Apparently this is a BMW X4, which is an X6-esque version of the not-yet-released 4-Series, which is the coupe version of the 3-Series. I have no idea what’s going on here. This segment is going to be big in the future, it’s an easy way for BMW to make money but I can’t even tell what’s what anymore. And it’s ugly.

Sigh...so I'm house/puppy sitting for a friend of mine and every morning when I walk out to the garage I am met by an E30 325i and a 2004 E46 325i. Reminds me of my bachelor days when I had my E30 318i and 1993 E36 325i. I can't even tell what some of these new Bimmers are. Seems BMW is spitting out cars that answer questions nobody seems to be asking (well, maybe those folks in China are). Growing up, BMW was THE marque brand for me, and it was all I could do to wait until I was old enough to get my hands on one (first one was my 1974 2002...the only car I regret selling to this day). Now? I haven't stopped by the dealer's lot in years. I'd take a nice used E46...but that's about where my desire for a BMW ends. Oh, I'm sure they'll sell some of these abominations (hello lease-world), and I'm sure the folks in Bavaria could give a rat's patootie about BMW enthusiast drivers. And that, folks, is rather sad...

BMW's should now be called The Ultimate Douche Machine.

The Oracle Honda is generally conservative yet persistent, this will work in one form or fashion.
Theflyersfan I love this car. I want this car. No digital crap, takes skill to drive, beat it up, keep on going.However, I just looked up the cost of transmission replacement:$16,999 before labor. That's the price for an OEM Mitsubishi SST. Wow. It's obvious from reading everything the seller has done, he has put a lot of time, energy, and love into this car, but it's understandable that $17,000 before labor, tax, and fees is a bridge too far. And no one wants to see this car end up in a junkyard. The last excellent Mitsubishi before telling Subaru that they give up. And the rear facing car seat in the back - it's not every day you see that in an Evo! Get the kid to daycare in record time! Comments are reading that the price is best offer. It's been a while since Tim put something up that had me really thinking about it, even something over 1,000 miles away. But I've loved the Evo for a long time... And if you're going to scratch out the front plate image, you might want to do the rear one as well!
Ajla So a $10K+ transmission repair?
Kwik_Shift_Pro4X I've mentioned before about being very underwhelmed by the Hornet for a $50000+ all in price tag. Just wasn't for me. I'd prefer a Mazda CX-5 or even a Rogue.
MaintenanceCosts Other sources seem to think that the "electric Highlander" will be built on TNGA and that the other 3-row will be on an all-new EV-specific platform. In that case, why bother building the first one at all?
