    I own an E55 many people say it handles like a dodge this hasn’t been my experience I think it handles pretty well albeit I am on aftermarket arnaut suspension and some nice E63 rims and good tires so this might be the reason I don’t mind the handling. but airbags plus coils should be factored into buying any e55 because the air-matic suspension will more likely than not break and the repairs are expensive if you go the air suspension root.

    The 991.1 GTS is undoubtedly the high point of the 911. This car has everything rolled into one: great driving experience with the NA engine, unmatched looks / sounds, and reliability. Yes, reliability. The 2015 and the 2016 are rated the highest. This is a collector car that you can enjoy driving and watch it appreciate in value. This car will be your friend for life!

    2:16 BMW: "...not dillute the M division" 2024+ also BMW: Let's just mess and mix everything up so nothing makes sense anymore. Let chaos reign! 3er and 4er separated, 3er should have been the 3 door, 540i no longer has a V8 and basically all numbers don't mean anything no more, newer engine TU's are a mess, the latest M4 front mask looks like a road kill beaver face and the rest of the car tries hard to be and not to be a Mustang kinda shaped car at the same time, there is a model called XM which is even uglier,... IMO if you have the E53 X5 V8 then you can put an M badge on the trunk lid with absolutely no issues. Just because someone at BMW decided against it does not mean the car does not deserve it. Especially now after all these years.

    The GX 460 is and will be legendary! It is bullet proof and still retain the Lexus design language which is conservative, incremental improvements, luxurious , refined and just works. The 2022-2023 model year had the redesigned infotainment which was the main selling point for me. I bought a 2023 GX 460 Luxury with Sport Desing Package and port installed tow hitch and a bunch of other goodies. I love this truck!

      Yep -same here! I intentionally did not want a twin turbo GX 550 V6 in the first introduction year and the back orders for the 560 were at least 6 months or more! The GX 460 drives great - smooth, steady and quiet; if I wanted a sports car I would not have purchased an SUV! My highway mpg is 22-25 at 65 mph! This is a great vehicle that I’d now gone for 2024!
