Fun fact -- the Michelin wiper blades that Costco sells are licensed and made by First Brands. But the company has comitted some sort of financial fraud, filed for bankruptcy, and is close to a settlement.
US Costco has also switched to selling BFGoodrich wiper blades instead of Michelin ones. No idea who the actual manufacturer is. Let's see if it is the same garbage as the Michelin ones or not...

For circle jerkers like EvoFire, that's perfectly acceptable for BMW standards.

What do you guys use as an easy cleaner/protector for leather seats? Giving my wifes Rav a clean today and the back seats in particular need some love from all the dirt and kids snacks ground into them.

If you're buying from Canadian Tire the Adam's stuff works just fine - cleaner and protector.
Pretty much all but the super expensive leather seats are clear coated so they can be cleaned and protected the same way you clean the interior plastics/leathers.

Sweet Jesus 
It will have a limited run of 100 units and be priced from €714,000 ($841,212 USD).
HWA EVO.R Race Car Revealed For 2026 Nürburgring 24 Hours With Three-Car Entry
There are race cars built to win. And then there are race cars built to settle unfinished business.
When HWA AG pulled the covers off the EVO.R, its dedicated competition variant of the road-going EVO super saloon, it was not just another GT hopeful lining up for a 24-hour grind. It was a homecoming. In 2026, the company will field three EVO.R entries at the Nürburgring 24 Hours, returning to the forest where its reputation was forged in noise, rain, and brake dust.
For those who know their touring car history, HWA is not a startup chasing headlines. Born from the competition arm of Mercedes’ most ferocious touring car programs, HWA’s fingerprints are all over the golden era of DTM. The silhouette that looms largest is the Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II DTM, a car that looked like it had been sketched with a ruler and a vendetta.
The EVO.R is a modern echo of that aggression.
