Are you guys ready for the BMW Supra?

>>17690010
>>get German Memegineering
The jelly is strong with this one.

>>17690010
Will it be the most reliable BMW, or the least reliable Toyota?

This is bullshit.
Isn't it supposed to have that Lexus V6

>>17690010
>german AND japanese in one car

could have been the best thing ever... if it was still pre 2000...

>>17690029
Modern BMWs are pretty fuckin reliable except the n54. What a turd

>>17690022
Nobody wants overcomplicated, expensive, hard to service, plastic accessory, German junk. Japanese engineering is superior because it's proving and perfected technology that just works. If it's a BMW engine, I wouldn't buy a Supra, I'd just lease it for the warranty period and let it fail catastrophically on some one else.

>>17690060

then no Supra for you.

>>17690010
They are building the Supra in my hometown. I don't know if I should feel excited or ashamed...

>>17690166
thats fucked, its more impressive to have a simple design that performs well

>>17690034
It will have the Lexus V6 from the GS/LS as Biturbo Version with hybrid technology ( <--that's why BMW wanted Toyota as partner) and the power output will be around 400+hp with RWD.
But there will also be a I4 Hybrid Version (I guess the I4 will be a BMW motor) with 192-252hp, but nobody will give a flying shit about this one.

>>17690241
Forgot to mention, that the Interior as well as the drivetrain are pretty much confirmed to be from BMW.

Who cares. It's auto only meaning it's defacto shit.

How can you fuck up such a simple formula?

What's funny here is that Ford is less reliable than Lincoln. They're the same company (MKS <--> Taurus, Navigator <--> Expedition, MKZ <--> Flex, etc)

Also, love me some BMW M72 action.

talk about dumb, trying to reduce weight at the front so they move the timing chain to the back which then pushes the rest of the engine forward.

presumably Lincolns have higher build quality for the electronics and stuff
mechanical failure isn't a huge issue with new cars unless we're talking about FCA

>>17690649
>presumably Lincolns have higher build quality for the electronics and stuff
Essentially they are the same. They just don't have absolute shit models like the Fiesta/Focus that sell like hotcakes and fuck the average like Ford does. Same goes for Buick as no one really buys the shitty cruze rebadge.

Yeah I'm coming to that realization. I bet if American cars (aside from classics) weren't complete garbage they might be able to actually discuss cars objectively like normal human beings instead of getting butthurt whenever japanese or german cars are mentioned.

Should I change the tires on my 2013 328i?

I live in the Coastal LA Area, drive about 8 miles on a work day, and have a completely factory car for the past couple of years. I enjoy the experience it provides quite a bit but was wondering if there could be any relatively affordable changes/modifications that I could do for it, as someone who is not familiar with actually doing work on their own cars.
I've heard of other owners who weren't satisfied with their factory run-flats, claiming that other tires they switched to made their overall experience more comfortable & fun.
Should I consider doing this?

>>17690778
Post your face when you realize that before they were Opels, their ranking was even higher.

>>17691152

Tire upgrade is probably one of the best bang-for-buck upgrades you can make for your vehicle, no matter the vehicle.

Southern CA you should be able to run a set of high performance summers year-round, that's what I'd do.

The 328i isn't exactly performance oriented, but the sport tires should help lower road noise in addition to being much better in warm dry climate, with the added bonus of not negatively impacting your wet driving performance. Since you don't get any snow or extreme temps, you don't have to worry about getting all-season tires.

>>17690730
Actual kek

>>17690272
Buick still make cars?

>>17691273
The non-water injected S55 still produces 460hp and it can deliver 500+hp with a remap easily.

>>17691377

The 2018 Regal has 310hp, real full-time AWD, Brembo brakes, and magnetic dampers. I'd unironically consider it if it was manual (which the last one was, actually).

They've been doing this for a while. The current Auris (aka Corolla) gets sold with BMW diesel engines (N47) in Europe.

driving a 10th gen civic ive come to appreciate hondas engineering but there are key differences between it and a german car. the sheet metal is very thin on the honda whereas a german car has very thick sheet metal. driving wise it feels very planted like a german car but very nimble like a asian car. ive never had a honda before but the 10th gen civic is one of the best designed and built cars in my personal opinion. i dont miss cars like volkswagens that you cannot pull out the wipers away from the windscreen unless you set it to some setting that i never cared to figure out how to do so... but i miss the bmws of yesteryear before everything became riddled with computers

umm why did toyota steal the honda headlight style?
