    Just for context I am an MD/MPH and I own multiple cars. My favorite daily driver is my Miata. It is driving therapy to and from work and I get to experience most of its abilities on my daily commute, without going over the speed limit. For comparison, the GT4 goes all the way to over 80mph in third gear. In the 458, this is even more pronounced. I find you can’t really utilize most of the performance on anything with more than 300hp without having to worry about losing your license. That is why I do agree that driving a slow car fast is more fun.

I agree with everything you’re saying. although, Audi is being very hush hush about the B10 RS5 Avant coming over. they neither confirmed, or denied it coming. I bet they will. rumored to have the Panamera 4S E Hybrid powertrain, with 536hp. time will tell.

    There really is no such thing as an "SUV". Most SUV's are really minivans with 4 doors as its used to haul kids and groceries. The only true SUV is something with offroad and performance capabilities such as the Range Rovers. But because of its size, they have become immensly popular with families. Still, when I see SUV's on the road, I just think "4 door minivans".

    • @carsofmedicine
      @carsofmedicine 18 дней назад

      Sure. People rush out to buy CUVs when they are just wagons lifted 6 inches and then delude themselves that they have an offroading powerhouse that they park in the grocery lot. A lot of people are buying 3-row SUVs when they would be best served by a minivan, but many of these adults nowadays grew up with minivans being lame, so they are, in turn, making CUVs/SUVs lame. #longlivethecoupes

Absolute nightmare. Rocker Arms failing, piston rings chattered, control arms broke twice in 15k miles (and I drive 4-5K miles a year usually).

      Hey, I’m keeping the coupe cause I don’t really need the practicality for another 3-5 years. My wife and I can do long road trips in the S5 just fine and it suits my daily commute. I would prefer a coupe as a commuter. I would be more inclined to get an S6, RS6/RS7, Panamera Sport Turismo, maybe even just the A6 allroad with a tune over the A5 sportback in the current configuration.

This division focuses on creating high-performance vehicles that embody the brand's racing heritage. BMW has categorized its M vehicles into different levels: M Sport: These are appearance packages available for base models, not considered true M cars. M Performance: These vehicles, such as the M340i, feature performance enhancements but are still not classified as full M cars. Base M: This includes standard M models like the M3, M4, and M5, which are considered true M cars. M Competition: These are higher-performance versions of the base M models There are a TON of M Sport and M Performance Cars which are NOT manufactured by BMW M GmbH, yet have the "M logo" everywhere. I'm not saying they aren't great cars. I owned an M340i and loved it. But it was not in the same league as my M3.

    The B10 Avant is not coming to North America, read an article in Car & Driver. Total wagon sales in US accounts for only 1.75% of the US market. 1.25% of that are accounted for with Subaru Outback. All the remaining wagon, MB and Audi etc. only account for.5% of the US market. No way they're bringing new regular wagons to the USA, doesn't make financial sense. I wish they would but it won't happen. I'm surprised they brought out the RS6 and E63S to be frank.
