Likewise, a Wi-Fi hotspot and a one-year subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio with 360L are now standard; a matte wood finish is a new interior option. BMW also changes the Competition designation from a model to a package.
Pros As quick or quicker than many sports cars, mind-boggling agility for an SUV, more practical than a sedan.
Cons Ride is stiffer than desired, fewer driver-mode settings would be fine, how much power is too much power?

Pros The myth, the truck, the legend Will climb over anything Ample power Comfortable inrterior Soft ride
Cons Guzzles fuel Very expensive Guzzles fuel Not well-suited to suburbia Did we mention that it guzzles fuel?
