You Should Buy the BMW M5 Touring Over the Sedan: First Drive Review

If you're expecting to hear that driving the 2025 BMW M5 Touring is patently different than driving the M5 sedan, sorry to disappoint. Sure, there are some differences to the spring rates and chassis tuning to account for the long roof's slightly heavier weight, but the intent is to make…

GM Swears Ditching Apple CarPlay Was Still the Right Move
