2018 BMW X3: Improved in all the Right Places4.0/5

SINTRA, Portugal – The third-generation X3 will arrive in Canadian dealerships late this year, and although it looks quite similar to the outgoing model, the brand’s compact crossover has changed quite a bit.

2017 BMW 650i xDrive Cabriolet: Top-Down Opulence3.5/5

When the BMW 6 Series was resurrected in 2003, the lead designer for the German company was the legendary Chris Bangle.
