It's not often that we're flabbergasted by a manufacturer's choice of updates for a car, but now it's happened twice in one evening. First Infiniti goes all Q on us, and now BMW decides to release the second half of what should have been a one-part model refresh. Why would we say that? Because the...

The Infiniti G37 is a great car, especially in sedan form. In fact, it's one of the best sports sedans on the road when outfitted with a manual transmission and the sport package. But it is no more. In fact, all of Infiniti's current models will cease to exist as of the 2014 model year. Well...

When it comes down to it, there will likely be one primary reason to pick the BMW M6 Gran Coupe over its platform-sharing sibling, the BMW M5 sedan: style. Both will serve up a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 engine good for 560 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque, and both will seat four adults...

As anyone who’s driven Audi’s S6 and S7 models will tell you, the cars are distinctly different in personality, which helps Audi build a business case for both in the U.S. product line. If there’s room for an A6, an A7, an S6 and an S7, surely there's room for an RS 6 and RS 7...
