That bump in resolution makes every car in this game come alive. In fact, this PS2 game is one of only four games capable of outputting in 1080i resolution. Released in 2004 by Polyphony Digital, "Gran Turismo 4" pushed the PlayStation 2 to its limits.Overall owning this car has been a truly great experience and if you’re new to BMW you will absolutely fall in love quickly because after all it is a BMW and the driving experience is one unique to the brand that’s really hard to understand until you drive one. Remote start at the very least was very prevalent in 2017. I understand it’s from 2017 but it’s a 5 Series, a full blown BMW luxury vehicle missing what I would consider essential luxury features. Two things that I really dislike about this car are that it has no remote start feature (you can’t even do an aftermarket one) and it has no Apple CarPlay / Android Auto. It’s best to avoid the dealership and do the repairs yourself if you can with any German luxury vehicle, especially BMW, and remember to keep up with general maintenance on time. This car and the updated N63TU engine seem pretty xxxx good but when something does inevitably break it’s very costly to repair. Everyone that gets in the car is blown away by how beautiful it is and then blown away by the power from under the hood, it’s the best of both worlds.Īs with all BMW’s reliability is a problem. Mine is full bolt on and tuned now and I feel a noticeable difference from stock. Probably the best part about this car is how fast it is, it’s very fast from the factory and you can do some basic modifications to make it way faster. The dual tailgate system is a joke but the hatchback functionality is incredibly useful and provides a large trunk area that regularly comes in handy.Īs a consequence of its exterior design it is a heavy car and is not as fun around twisty roads as the smaller, lighter vehicles but it doesn’t really matter much when you put your foot down in Sport Mode and remember you’re driving a twin turbo V8. At first I was a little taken aback by the exterior design but when I saw it in person I thought it didn’t look so bad and then it quickly grew on me. I’ve had this car for about 2 years now and put about 36,000 miles on it.
