2016 BMW G12 740i | A Luxury Sedan Bargain For $20k
The 2016 BMW G12 740i pleasantly surprised me in a number of ways that I was not initially expecting. This long wheelbase luxury sedan drove incredibly smooth and boasted a suite of creature comforts that enabled relaxation in every aspect of the driving experience. With a 3.0L B58 inline-six engine and a slick 8 Speed ZF gearbox, the powertrain of this car is both powerful and reliable. For around $20k in the used market, these G12 chassis BMWs represent an exceptional value in the used car market. Thank you for watching and make sure to leave a like if you enjoyed the video!

BMW E92 328i Track Car | Streets of Willow CW | 1:30.5
Просмотров 566Месяц назад
The first shakedown with my BMW E92 328i Track Car was a success! We ran the car at Streets of Willow CW and to our somewhat pleasant surprise, the car held up great. My best lap time of the day was a 1:30.5, which I was content with considering it was my first time running this layout and my first time out on track in over two years. Stay tuned for the next video, and leave a like if you enjoy...
BMW E92 328i Track Car | Progress Update & Build Overview!

About 8 months ago, my friend and I were in search of a vehicle candidate we could build for racetrack use without completely breaking the bank. Finding a budget friendly option, wasn't particularly easy, especially in the relatively inflated post COVID market. However, after a hefty amount of research, and considering a plethora of performance oriented cars, we agreed to pick up a BMW E92 328i...

For today's review, I took the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 for a thorough spin on the street and discovered what this iconic nameplate is all about. This car features a supercharged, American-made 5.2L V8 engine, producing 760hp and 625lb-ft of torque. It would be an understatement to say this car is a missile for the street, as it is one of the fastest production cars I have ever driven. Pa...

For today's review, I had the pleasure of sitting behind the wheel of a 1984 Porsche 944. This vehicle is incredibly interesting from a historical perspective as it quickly became loved by enthusiasts and motorsport fans alike.

2001 Porsche 986 Boxster S | The Porsche Experience for $15k

Today I got behind the wheel of a 2001 Porsche 986 Boxster S. The 986 along with many other models (such as the 911) from this era were often frowned upon for their water-cooled powerplants, IMS issues, and not-so-gorgeous looks. Fast forwarding 22 years later, what is it like to drive this old German roadster? I'm pleased to report that this car offers a sublime driving experience with everyth...

2007 BMW E63 M6 | Future Classic With a V10
Просмотров 11 тыс.Год назад
Today we are sitting behind the wheel of a 2007 BMW E63 M6 powered by a 5.0L naturally aspirated V10 engine, codenamed the S85. In my humble opinion, this car is a soon-to-be future classic simply due to its outrageous powerplant and drivetrain characteristics. It offers a supercar's thrills from the early to mid-2000s for just a fraction of the cost. Assuming one can look past many of the car'...

2018 Lexus RCF | Japan's Glorious Competitor to the M4
I have a question? Will you be doing anything with your old channel anymore. You put out a ton of awesome info on BMW’ Enthusiasts. Shame to see it go idle. Enjoy all your videos on both channels.
WOAHHH WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER CHANNEL??? I WAS WONDERING WHERE YOU WENT
The S63 coupe too, such a great looking car
Couldn't agree more with you. Total stunner!
Those Maybach wheels really elevate the car’s presence!
A supreme car
The car sounds incredible! Gotta love that inline 6. Excited to see more of this car!
Patiently waiting for the summer heat to pass over so we can get some more track time with it!
😮 This car came a long way!! More E92 content please 🙏
Nice!!! I can't afford the RCF (now) so I got the ISF for the next year's 😊
Why did you ghost everyone on your other channel?
That spec would almost make me trade my ISF cheers from OZ.
I have an n52 328i e92 as a daily and I was looking to get a n54 335i e92. Do you think that’s a bad idea?
2018 Lexus RC F looks nicer than current 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just want to say TY for the follow up. While your lines weren't perfect, I can totally see the potential. I can't believe how well it gripped up coming out of the corners with no LSD. Hopefully you caught the bug and release even more track videos 😅
Thanks for watching! Next video for the series will be from the Buttonwillow track day. Taking a break from the summer heat right now, but planning on hitting the track full swing when it cools down later this year.
Superb review. Esp the note of the 2UR-GSE is on dot. You did a great justice to the RC F. I have an IS 500, 2UR is a master class engine. But when I test drove an RC F, its a totally different experience. The chassis is extremely solid. Lexus sadly downgraded it in 2023+ they removed the Driver Memory, Engine Bracing, Ambient lighting, Door cup lighting etc also key component TVD is also gone. I would love to swap my IS 500 for an RC F new but the downgrades are really unfortunate. Fingers crossed to own one of the RC F hopefully.
Thanks! Didn’t know they downgraded the car for 2023, that’s a bizarre move and truly unfortunate.
@@AutoWisdom It is sadly. My guess is they are just keeping it barely alive to get the last ounce of the platform as the sales are very low and to just have it homologated for the GT3 RC F Race car mandate. In 2026 they are getting a new GT3 Race car that will replace the RC F. The new one will be Twin Turbo V8 and probably will be limited quantity and over $150K for sure. World will truly miss it then and many will realize what it was. I believe they will kill the 2UR-GSE engine as a whole for good.
i love this calm thorough praising of the car then you call it a “porker” 😂😂
Lol! I'm just stating the facts.
great vid @arupreet
Hey man what happened to your previous channel you used to post on?
The channel is still live, but for now Auto Wisdom is my new project and focus!
Questions. Please let me know where you do the down pipe and if those modifications have problems with the California motor department?
The owner installed the downpipes himself. And you will not pass smog in California if you are running catless downpipes.
Welcome back bro!!!!
Considering doing 330i stage 3 intake manifold?
This car is a SULEV meaning it’s equipped with the N51 engine which has the 3-stage manifold from factory.
@@AutoWisdom is this a Cali thing?
love this car you have no idea!
General motors have been putting that center plaque in every Corvette since 1954 so if this the only thing you have to gripe about, it must be a pretty nice car
i bought a 2010 328 x drive with a 6 speed, single hump and sport interior last year and the thing actually feels like such a composed mature car. She drives great right out the box, is kind to my wallet (so long as you take care of the weak points to the engine) and is a bang for your buck modern bmw. I’ve got it on some D Force LTW5s and waiting on bilstein suspension. love my car
Yeah but a 4 cylinder Hybrid gets better fuel economy and that 10 speed eCVT is so awesome and efficient said no one ever who owns a Nat Asp V8. 😈 🤣
Dang we need more content! I'm thinking of building one of these instead of a miata. The price is just to tempting!!!
Hoping to have a small update video uploaded this weekend! Stay tuned!
It's the worst year to get 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽rod bearings, which will never last in 2013. The best year to get is 2015 and up 🫡
Just crashed mine. Same exact car. i had just hit 180k. I miss her so much :(
This was the most boring but entertaining video. It’s so much fun with the sound and your voice slow but fast. Amazing video
how is reliability? Also where are these backroads located?
Reliability was good overall for the owner, however it's important to note that he was very particular with maintenance. Frequent oil change intervals, preventative replacement of spark plugs, coil packs, etc. These backroads are located near Palomar Mountain!
This sounds AMAZING!!!
13 years later I still own my 9th gen civic Si! Needs some paint tho lol!
Please bring this car down to lime Rock. 😮
Would love to do that if I ever got the opportunity!
335 rear tyres? That's massive!
Bruh am i trippin or is that Gran Turismo music❤
Great minds think alike.
The properly taken care of well maintained 2006-2010 M6 and M5 will be sought after. Only the real car enthusiasts appreciate these rare unique cars
need another video on this car!!
Coming soon!
@@AutoWisdom that’s crazy! i literally rewatched today, have an 08 328i 6spd coupe and this will be such a good series to look back on whenever im out of uni
As a German, I have a question. How high are the maintenance costs for such a car in the USA? I keep noticing that, on the one hand, cars in the USA are advertised by their price. On the other hand, these are cars with a lot of horsepower and a set of tires would cost a fortune in Germany. All wear parts would cost more in relation to models with smaller engines. The same goes for insurance and tax. Do Americans not worry about such things, or is it so much cheaper in the USA?
Sales tax rates are based on the local county that you live in here in California. So for example my county's sales tax rate is 7.75% and this is what you would pay for tax based on the purchase price of the vehicle. Maintenance can be costly of course, this owner knew how to do most of the maintenance himself which saved a lot of money. Here in Southern California, there is an abundance of high performance shops that specialize in exotic and European cars, so thankfully it promotes competition and helps to keep maintenance prices somewhat reasonable.
Great review - I couldn't agree more. The only real annoyance is the body roll in tight turns. 130K on mine, still bone stock, zero major issues. I bought her brand new, and I can confidently say that it's the best purchase I've ever made.
Sway bar and coilovers fixes all body roll
@@Arbsfg4 Good to know. It's honestly not much of an issue for me, since I rarely hit corners hard enough to be a problem.
Such great cars, thanks for watching!
Great video. No horrible music and right to the point.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the review.
Wow what a quality review. Expected you had a lot more subs. Been looking at this car recently and its such a beaute. I belive its too powerful for a 20 yo newer driver, but this is something I will look at in the future. And you are spot on with the ageless design, it looks brand new, and could easily fit in with newer cars even 10 years from now.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the review! Definitely a lot of car for someone that young, and I would not recommend it unless they have some serious driving experience and maturity under their belt.
I have a 16 z06 red 3lz A8. 2 tone red and black leather interior, full ground effects in carbon fiber, carbon ceramic brakes, non z07, I also have carbon fiber interior as well as dual roof package. One is exposed carbon fiber and the other is the transparent top. So Im pretty loaded even with carbon fiber. The only thing missing is the competition seats which I heard are uncomfortable, z07 package, and the visible carbon fiber hood insert. By the way at the 7:51 mark isn't that where Paul Walker died? 😬
It looks very similar but it's not the same spot! This was filmed near San Diego.
I’ve had my e92 328xi for over 7 years, and it’s in my opinion one of the best value for the money if you’re looking for something sporty, German, fairly practical for a coupe, reliable, easy to work on, and it’s got great comfort features and styling especially for its age. The only bad thing about mine… is that I’m going to have to list it for sale within a week since we need something bigger like an SUV 😢. I’m definitely going to miss mine… I remember watching one of your videos before I bought my BMW(I think you had a black 335i in black) when I was doing research on e92 cars. It was very useful. Thank you.
Yes, that was my old car! Thanks for supporting the channel and watching the review!
I cant wait to get one and mod it ☺
Bruh Simply Car Things ? We need more BMW Content! I use to watch your videos as inspiration installing parts on my 335i and now I'm looking into getting into an M3 F80. Save the Channel man i would love to see more content on your M4.
More content coming soon my friend! Unfortunately I no longer have my M4 as I sold it at the beginning of last year but this channel is my new project, so feel free to stick around and enjoy the content.
My goodness, such a nice spec. Love the color and how the owner matched everything.
What size of spacer u running on ?
If I remember correctly it was a 25MM rear spacer and 15MM front.
Anyone else notice the tire presure at 40 PSI 😯those tires aren't supposed to be pass 34/36.
excellent review. I enjoyed your detailed perspective, thank you. looking to get a 2012 si soon, super excited
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
