Unreliable Or Expensive, The Definition Of A BMW Enthusiast, Getting Better At Driving Manuals | Episode 1,006

from Everyday Driver Car Debate · host Everyday Driver

Apple CarPlay is great, but is Ultra a step too far to differentiate the in-cabin experience? The guys discuss the dichotomy of unreliability vs. cost. Does making a vehicle reliable just mean dumping more money into it, and have we confused the terms ‘unreliable’ and ‘expensive?’ Albert S. doesn’t admit to being a BMW enthusiast, despite owning four - he wants what’s next. Then, Jason W. doesn’t feel ready for a Porsche, but maybe when he’s older. Car conclusions include cheap new EVs and project cars, and social media questions include an inquiry on how to get better driving manual transmission? Audio-only MP3 is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and 10 other platforms.
