As the successor to the storied M3 coupe, the BMW M4 had big shoes to fill when it debuted four years ago. Since then, this two-door has come into its own, and now has a modest mid-cycle refresh to show for it. But since this update only changed the details, one thing is clear—there’s nothing worth fixing with the beast that is the M4.
While the performance of the seventh-generation 5 Series will be plenty for some, the promise of the M division’s insane 2018 BMW M5 have made some hold out. Those who have won’t be disappointed. Now offering 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque, the M5 isn’t just more powerful than ever, but a driving experience that more can get behind.
For the past fifteen years, the BMW X3 has done a great job of serving premium CUV buyers with the kind of luxury and driving feel that only the Bavarian automaker can deliver. This November, the third generation will arrive, and while it may not look too different than the model it replaces, there’s plenty of changes that give it more value than ever.
