2016 BMW M2: Entry-Level M5.0/5

It’s official. I’ve changed my mind about BMW. Up until very recently, I’d written off the company’s ability to build compact performance cars. For as long as I can remember, BMW had always been at the top of its class when it put its mind to creating the best—not some …September 1, 2016

2015 BMW i8: A Road Less Travelled4.0/5

The weather hasn't been pleasant this spring in Eastern Canada, but we've finally seen the end of freezing surroundings and turned a corner with flowers, weeds and allergies blossoming.

2015 BMW i3: Today’s Shape Of Tomorrow4.0/5

Someday, electric cars will be offered in all shapes and sizes, and people who drive them likely won’t be trying to make a statement. However, if we’re behind the wheel an EV today, we’re probably sticking out like a sore thumb. We’ll definitely get noticed in the 2015 BMW i3, …January 18, 2016

2016 BMW 328i xDrive Touring: Making Your Luxury SUV Obsolete4.0/5

You probably don't need me to tell you that wagons are a dying breed. Chances are, you don't know all that many people who own one, unless you happen to run with a crowd rife with fans of one of the few remaining automakers that still deigns to offer Canadian …January 8, 2016

2016 BMW 340i xDrive: Closing The Gap4.0/5

Effortless performance seems to be the new mantra of luxury sedan builders regardless of what nation they hail from. There are as many ways to get from A to B in under five seconds as there are badges on the hood, but the miracle of modern technology has largely democratized …January 1, 2016

2015 BMW i8: Nothing Short Of Spectacular4.5/5

We’ve been infatuated with the BMW i8 ever since it appeared on the cover of the 2012 edition of our French-language publication, Le Guide de l’auto . Since then, we’ve been chomping at the bit to drive it, and when a test drive was recently confirmed, we were positively giddy. August 26, 2015

2015 BMW M3: Adventures In 21st Century Driving4.0/5

More and more often, sports cars are finding themselves on one side or the other of an increasingly well-defined line in the sand: those vehicles that strive to connect the driver as directly as possible to the road sitting under the rubber, and those that leverage technology to deliver mind-blowing …November 14, 2014

2015 BMW X4 xDrive35i: Slave To Fashion3.0/5

We suffer for style. We squeeze ourselves into shoes that are too pointy, or shirts that are too tight around the neck, or wear the sheerest of fabrics that offer little or no protection from the elements, all in the name of capturing that look, that attitude that will set …September 17, 2014

2014 BMW M235i: Shaking Off The Ghosts Of Performance Past4.0/5

The 2014 BMW M235i is more than just the latest play in the German automaker's number's game - it's an attempt to marry two different components of its heritage under a single, coupe-shaped banner. Although not a true M car in the same vein as the vaunted BMW M3 or …September 12, 2014

2014 BMW 428i xDrive: Learning How To Compromise4.0/5

There was once a time when all-wheel drive convertibles were the unicorns of the automotive industry, much in the same way that manual transmission station wagons are today. The 2014 BMW 428i xDrive cabriolet, however, is one of a growing chorus of four-wheel-enabled drop-tops that pleasantly suggest to luxury shoppers …August 22, 2014

2014 BMW 428i xDrive: A Fresh Start For BMW's Two-Door Champion4.0/5

It's 2014, which means it's time to say good-bye to the old boss - the BMW 3 Series Coupe - and say hello to the new boss: the BMW 4 Series. In a world where brand positioning is beginning to trump all other considerations, the German luxury automaker has elected …January 10, 2014

2013 BMW 320i xDrive: An Intriguing Luxury Compromise3.5/5

The allure of the BMW brand is one that has steadily packed dealerships over the course of the past several decades, as luxury-seeking Canadian drivers have latched onto the German automaker that was once known more for its performance-oriented offers than its plush feature set. Those sporty days might be …January 3, 2014
