Reviews SummaryYou do not buy a 2021 Jaguar F-Type R seeking value, quality, technological sophistication, or a way to fade into the background. Rather, you buy a 2021 Jaguar F-Type R seeking non-stop attention, astounding performance, and a mega-buck sports car of which you’ll rarely see duplicates on the road. This is the six-figure luxury performance machine to get when you don’t want to drive the same thing every other high-roller does. Especially when it's painted Sorrento Yellow, like our test car. | |
Reviews SummaryThe high-performance member of the BMW 4 Series family, the 2025 M4 is available as a coupe or a convertible, with or without a manual transmission, and with rear-wheel drive (RWD) or xDrive all-wheel drive (AWD). For 2025, the M4 gets a light detail refresh, a slight power bump for Competition xDrive models, and a new operating system for the infotainment system. A limited-production M4 CS coupe is also available. Verdict: Top up or down, driven in epic traffic or on epic roads, the M4 remains one of the best-driving BMWs money can buy. Comfortable when you want it, track-ready when you need it, and able to seat four people while carrying a decent amount of cargo, the M4 is a terrific all-around automobile. | |
