I've never seen Doug wearing long pants

[BoopdaBeep]

This BMW I5's camera system has given us the best tour of the Cars&Bids Headquarters - the only one I think we've ever had!

The most interesting part about this video is the Lucid Air Dream Edition selling for $87, 000. That’s half price from 2 years ago!! I believe Doug needs to adjust the Value in its dougscore making it the new champion!

Doug is the type of guy who says that the car doesn't have a sport mode, but when he opens the menu, the same sport mode greets us

The G30 was design perfection. So naturally BMW thought, "we have to make it ugly like the rest of our new cars" and thus the G60 was born!

Front :BMW
Side:Honda Accord
Back:Mercedes CLA

That opening startup sound sounds a lot like Macintosh computers when they power up 🤔🤔

[paulzapodeanu]

The BMW I5 is here! Not great, not good, not awesome, not the best, not bad, not awful, but here! Reminds of Christopher Hitchens beginning his lectures with: "Of all the introductions of myself that I heard, this is certainly the most recent!".

I drive the bmw i5 M60. I agree with everything you said Doug. I’m 6’7 I have plenty of room, car seat fits easily in there. I came from a ford bronco Wildtrak backseat space was so limited. Also this BMW drives so well on the road takes bumps well and that M60 is a beast speed wise

[SamAshkon]

If it wasn’t for the logo and kidney grill I probably wouldn’t recognize this car as a bmw at all

[rogersmj]

As someone who came of age in the E39 era, there’s very little about this that feels like a BMW to me. It just seems so far removed from what I have in mind when I think of BMW.

[PaulE]

Kudos for testing the standard version and not the M 👍🏻

[thefastfamily]

Doug is the type of guy that reviews car trims for the masses.

[ivanvasilev]

Harry from Harry’s garage had a very interesting review on this particular car. I am sure Doug enjoyed it, as a big fan of him.

[azizvfinesse]

Rest in peace to my favorite sedan ever

[parsonator]

It boggles the mind that there's no front trunk in this thing. They've got an engine bay the size of a swimming pool but they can't even find the space to fit the charge cables under there. Just a complete lack of ambition in the packaging department.

[kevinkern]

I like how turning the hazards on makes the mood lighting go into "red alert" mode, fulfilling every Trekkie's dream.

[joshmervis]

I work for bmw and I drive these cars everyday, yet I’m still watching Doug’s video on it because I love his reviews that much.

[christopherbowen]

4:39 the opening the door sound and the starting up sound are like the sounds Microsoft Windows used to make 2 decades ago.

This is not a complaint. I dearly miss those versions of Windows.

[delfean]

It's not ugly...it just has an economy car vibe
