2017 BMW 5 Series: 7 Series Comfort, 3 Series Agility4.5/5

Although the 3 Series is BMW’s top seller in Canada, besting the Bavarian manufacturer's various SUVs, the 5 Series is the brand’s most well-known model. While the first generation was introduced in 1972 , 2017 will witness the arrival of the seventh generation, which we’re comfortably calling spectacular after our …December 7, 2016

Are You a Fan of the BMW 5 Series? We’re Driving it This Week!

For 2017, the BMW 5 Series will be completely redesigned, entering its seventh generation. Saying the model is important for the brand is obviously a euphemism.

2014 Best Buys: Sedans and Coupes Between $50,000 and $100,000

A heterogeneous category if there ever was one, the segment for sedans and coupes between $50,000 and $100,000 certainly isn’t dull. Eternal rivals the 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and the 2014 Subaru WRX STI are pitted against the 2014 Audi A5, 2014 A6, 2014 A7 and even the 2014 Mercedes-Benz …April 11, 2014

2011 BMW 550i: An ICBM For the Rest of Us4.0/5

At 110 kilometres per hour, it barely felt like it was stretching its legs.

2011 BMW 550xi: If there was a Nobel Prize for cars...4.0/5

Just like people, some vehicles have evolved better than others. Torture me if you must, but I’ll never tell you which individuals still have Neanderthal-like characteristics. Fortunately, there are those who raise humanity to noble heights – from Las Vegas singers, entrepreneurial visionaries or Nobel Prize winners. The BMW 5 …May 12, 2011

2010 BMW 535i xDrive GT: The Hunback of Bavaria!3.0/5

There’s a saying amongst seafaring folks that goes like this: life is too short to own an ugly boat. Now, these people are typically of the same sort that shop at places like Harry Rosen, go to work in John Varvatos suits, and drive Bentleys… or BMWs. So why on …May 7, 2011

2010 BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo: A five-seat GT
