Cars in Action magazine in South Africa is known to be biased towards BMW's. For this reason many people aren't buying the mag anymore. It is also a well know fact that the owners and editors of the magazine only drive BMW cars. I agree that all Cars In Action submissions should be removed.

WTF? BMW bt R8? 16y ago
How on God's Green Earth will a BMW pavement sepcial ever beat a R8? I know, it is because all Cars in Action employees will lose their company cars if they are not biased to BMW. Remove all Cars in Actions times submitted.
