First Look: 2010 BMW X5 M and 2010 BMW X6 MYou can be as upset as you like about the inherent absurdity of a 550-hp sport SUV, but it's hard to argue with how good the 2010 BMW X5 M and X6 M drive.
The arrival of the controversial X5 M and X6 M might be confirmation that BMW has dumped every engineering principle that made its M cars so distinctive and consistently good for the last thirty years. Until now, all M cars have had a high-revving, normally aspirated engine, a manual or automated...

First Drive: 2010 Volkswagen Golf GTIOur prayers are answered: the 2010 Volkswagen GTI might be the best GTI yet.
Recent developments at Volkswagen have sent some enthusiasts praying for their beloved brand. A sacrilegious VW badge on a Chrysler minivan and plans for watered-down, cost-cut, U.S.-specific models (see the NMS and Jetta on page 78) are an effort to attain VW's ludicrously optimistic U.S. sales target of 800,000 cars per year. But those cars come at the risk of undermining...

Car enthusiasts too easily become punching bags for environmentalists. As the racing season cranks back up along with back yard BBQs, here are some talking points that you can use when an eco-weenie blasts you with, "How can you like such a pointless activity that's killing the planet?"
