Quick Car reviews

Volkswagen ID Buzz Likes: Volkswagen finally brings back the iconic bus in electric form. An extended wheelbase form will be available with three-rows of seats. It's retro yet modern style is very fitting. The interior is very stylish. It's got plenty of space for give aboard with a large boot. Dislikes: The short-wheel-base form is Euro-only. We have to wait two years for the ID Buzz to even make it here. It's going to cost (ahem) $60,000. Overall: Volkswagen once again taking its time bringing the cool cars to the US.
Range Rover Likes: It's still stunning to look at. The interior is more elegant that ever before. We are in love with the rear tail lights and the overall clean design. Dislikes: It's a tad bit more expensive than before. Overall: It's the classiest way to have a seriously capable luxury SUV.
BMW M3 Likes: It's the most powerful generation of the M3, yet. It drives and handles the way you'd expect a M-Tuned BMW should. BMW has finally got their interiors in a much better place. Dislikes: We loathe that beaver-tooth grille. Overall: BMW is finally getting its groove back with performance. We just wish the exterior styling matched the slick performance.
Volkswagen Taos Likes: The Taos is the roomiest of it's class. The new 1.5 turbo engine is zippy and offers competitive running costs. It's priced competitively, also. Dislikes: Dual-clutch transmission with 4-motion all-wheel-drive set up is weird. It's also jerky at low speeds. It can get as expensive as a Tiguan, which defeats the purpose of getting a Taos. Overall: Honey I shrunk the Atlas.
