BMW still carrying Motortrend in their pocket

The Caddy outperformed the other cars in nearly every category but the shmucks at MT still placed it in third. BMW must give it to MT pretty dang good.

The last time I read a mag was in 01 when they picked the BMW M3 , over a C5 Z06, it was a performance test which the Z murdered it in every category, but they picked the bmw due to having more trunk space

Motortrend is usually pretty fair, that does surprize me, however this is the reason I dont read rags.

Very important when it comes to performance.

I was tempted to write and send a photo with proof tha that my 01 Z could hold more cargo than they gave it credit for.....
I fit 4 strippers in my Z for a total of five people, two in the passenger seat, one in the trunk, and one above my stick shift, (true story), by the time we got to my house my elbow was wet for some reason

MotorTrend have worshipped BMW for years. I don't see that ever changing. I read last fall that the outgoing 5 series beat the NEW Audi A6, NEW Mercedes E350, and other NEW luxury cars. Some things never change.
