The snowpack in the high country of the Pacific Northwest has been twice the normal level in the first half of 2008. As I write, many lovely summer driving roads in the mountains are still closed, and some may not open at all this year. So I was pleased to get a chance to spend a week in the all-wheel-drive BMW 328xi. I had a trip to central Oregon planned, and a luxury AWD sports coupe was just the car I needed.  Fast, Capable, and Stylish
The BMW driving experience is well-known – a solid-feeling, quiet, comfortable, powerful car with every bell and whistle known to mankind provided for you. The 328 came with a 6-speed automatic transmission, the normally aspirated 3.0-liter version of BMW’s legendary straight-6 engine, and a coupe body graced with BMW’s latest design language. |

There was a time when luxury automakers just got so staid and stuffy that they were no fun at all. Cadillac lost its mojo in a sea of GM standardization, no one was sure if Lincoln was even making cars any more, and Jaguars were just nicer-looking mid-size Fords. The average age of luxury brand buyers was rising fast - and something had to be done.  The Big Cat is the One You Want
A few years ago that all began to change - manufacturers found that their luxury brands were the perfect vehicles to attract a new generation of buyers if they could offer luxury cars with real performance - measured and proven on the dyno and on the race track, not just claimed on the brochure. Cadillac did a great job reinventing itself with rides like the CTS and STS-V , and Jaguar returned to its racing history and gave us the XK convertible and the XKR coupe. |
