Episode Synopsis

The BMW 3-series turns 50 this year, and we celebrate it. We know that it didn't arrive in the US until 2 years later, but that's ok, it's still 50 years old.Our trauma surgeon, Dr Stephan Moran, talks about older cars and how they're not safe compared with new vehicles. He also addresses the particular challenges of teenage and older drivers.CoC addresses the rumored 2027 Toyota Supra V8. We hope Toyota actually makes it, and that if they do, they use a Toyota engine, not something from BMW.Audi will be phasing out the RS3 sedan, which means they will no longer sell an in-line 5-cylinder engine. That's a big deal, because those engines have been critical to the brand for more than 40 years. We get into it.#carsoncallpodcast #automobile #audiquattro #5cylinder #traumasurgeonsafety #toyotasupra #bmw3series #bmwm3
