A survivor’s life-changing journey Double-lung transplant recipient hopes her story helps organ donor registry JANE SEYD jseyd@nsnews.com

Margaret Benson remembers the first time she was able to take a deep breath.The air filled her lungs and “it kept on going and going,” she said. “It was the most exhilarating and extraordinary feeling.”

At 40, Benson was running out of time when she was given another chance at life, thanks to a double lung transplant.

Today, 15 years later, Benson still lives in a state of grace, profoundly thankful for the gift of a family she will never know.

“It’s mind boggling for me to understand that kind of love, that selflessness,” she said.

“How do you thank somebody for saving your life? There are no words in the English language that are

appropriate enough.”

This week, Benson and her husband Brian joined 13 other organ donor recipients and families of organ donors from around the world on the Rocky Mountaineer’s annual Life Changing Train for Heroes journey.

The train left Vancouver Tuesday and will arrive at Lake Louise today, where Benson will take part in a special ceremony honouring organ donors.

Benson hopes her own story will also inspire others to register as organ donors.

For Benson, who was born with the genetic disease cystic fibrosis, taking that deep breath came after a fourdecade struggle.

Benson said her mother knew something was wrong with her daughter from an early age — as a child, Benson didn’t gain weight, had a terrible cough and got bronchitis and pneumonia.

“Imagine yourself drowning, but not being in water,” Benson said.

When the diagnosis finally came, doctors gave her parents a bleak prognosis.While management of the disease has improved considerably since then, at that time, CF patients rarely lived past their teens.

Another weekend of sunshine, another weekend of North Shore Rescue members dropping what they’re doing to rescue lost and injured souls in the backcountry.

The volunteer team was called out twice last weekend, once on Saturday to rescue a badly injured hiker on Crown Mountain and again on Sunday to find three hikers who lost their way on a day trip and spent the night in the backcountry.

Organ transplant offers second chance at life From page 1

Benson said she refused to accept that. “I really didn’t believe that was going to be my fate.”

Despite the statistics and sporadic hospitalizations, Benson did beat the odds — for a while. “I was able to live a fairly normal life,” she said.

She travelled and got married.

She became a teacher and taught elementary school in North Vancouver. As her disease worsened, Benson often required oxygen to help her breathe.The kids called her “the tube lady,” she said.

In her late 30s, however, Benson’s condition worsened.

Everything was exhausting — even getting to the bathroom. She had to stop teaching.

By early 1999 she was put on the waiting list for a double lung transplant. She knew her chances weren’t great. Her blood type — B positive — narrowed down the options considerably. At the time, some people on the list for lung transplants were waiting two years or longer. “I knew I didn’t have two years,” said Benson.

She carried a pager and always had a bag packed.

Benson and her husband were at home on the night in early December when the phone rang.

Brian picked it up and heard the words, “We might have a set of lungs.”

At Vancouver General Hospital, Benson was put into a room and started on anti-rejection drugs.Then she and her husband waited. Around 5 a.m., a nurse finally came into the room and whispered, “It’s a go.”

She still gets emotional talking about that moment, when life and death were both hanging in the darkness.

“Knowing someone had to lose their life in order for me to live, that’s something I struggle with all the time,” she said.

The transplant process in B.C. ensures anonymity for donors and their families, so most recipients will never know who their organs came from.

Benson knows only that her lungs came from somewhere in small-town B.C. and that they came from a child.

She and Brian said a quiet prayer for the family of her donor.Then she was wheeled into the operating room.

The intricate surgery took more than seven and a half hours.There were complications and further surgery that night.

There were setbacks and further recovery.Then finally, there was her first breath taken without the aid of the ventilator.

She remembers being told, “If you can walk up a set of stairs we’ll be able to send you home.”

On Dec. 29, she told them, “Let’s go for the stairs.”

Benson is now a volunteer advocate with the Canadian Transplant Association.

She is also a medal winner and has been a flag bearer in the World Transplant Games — an athletic competition for those who have received organ transplants. “We say you have to test positive for drugs to compete in our games,” she laughed.

Benson takes a handful of pills every day — up to 20 of them every morning, four more at midday and up to eight more at night.The regimen of anti-rejection drugs is one she will have to follow for the rest of her life, but it is more than worth it.

Ten-year survival rates for transplant patients vary. For lung transplant recipients, the figure hovers around 55 per cent. But Benson is used to beating the odds. “I’ve had an extraordinary life,” she said.

She would like more people to have the second chance she’s been given.

Last year, there were 346 organ transplants done in B.C.,

While recent polls show up to 95 per cent of British Columbians support organ donation, fewer than 20 per cent of people have actually registered to become organ donors.

A variety of misconceptions about organ donation keep people from signing up, said John.

A simple online registration system has replaced the driver’s licence decals of the past, for instance.There are also no age limits. So far the oldest organ donor in Canada was 93, said John, while the oldest in B.C. was 79.

Part of the issue is also undoubtedly our discomfort about death, and in feeling the shadow of the unthinkable.

For Benson, those will always be with her — along with gratitude and joy for the life she has been given — in every breath she takes.

Backcountry campers give shelter to lost hikers From page 1 stretcher to package up the 55-year-old victim. The chopper set the man and his rescuers down at the Capilano searchand-rescue station where B.C. Ambulance Service paramedics were waiting.

The man was well-prepared and experienced for the difficult hike but did put himself at some risk by attempting to

do it alone, Pope said.

NSR volunteers scrambled again early Sunday morning after a group of students failed to return from a hike in Hanes Valley. The three hikers, all in their early 20s, were aiming to take the 15-kilometre trail from Lynn Headwaters to Grouse Mountain but missed a key turn into the valley.

The last ping from their cellphone

was off a tower near Capilano University around 8:30 p.m., Pope said. That was a clue the group had missed their turn into Hanes Valley and continued north along Lynn Creek.

After spending most of the day heading north, they found themselves near Lynn Lake as darkness was falling. The students, who weren’t carrying a map, did have some luck in that they came across two

campers who offered them shelter in their tent for the night.

North Shore Rescue dispatched three ground teams and a helicopter to search for them on Sunday morning, eventually finding them just south of Lynn Lake.

“We ended up air-lifting all five of them out,” he said. “Everybody got out safe and sound but it was quite an involved search for them.”

Reza Moazami guilty of human trafficking

Girls as young as 14 pimped from NV hotels, court hears JANE SEYD jseyd@nsnews.com

A man who ran a teen prostitution ring across the Lower Mainland, including out of hotels in North Vancouver, was found guilty of human trafficking this week.

Reza Moazami, 29, is believed to be the first person in B.C. convicted of human trafficking.

Moazami was convicted Monday of 29 charges by Justice Catherine Bruce of the B.C. Supreme Court following a lengthy trial in which a number of his teenaged victims testified.

The girls were between 14 and 19 when they worked for Moazami as prostitutes at a series of condos and hotel rooms across the Lower Mainland.

Moazami was found guilty of procuring young teenagers into a life of prostitution, living off the avails of prostituting both adults and underage girls, using coercion, plus other charges of sexual assault, sexual interference of underage girls and sexual exploitation.

Moazami ran the prostitution ring between February 2009 and October 2011, when he was arrested and taken into custody.

As their pimp, Moazami used both psychological and physical threats to force the girls to work for him. He took their photos to post on websites advertising sexual services, took calls to arrange their clients, pocketed the money and gave the teens drugs to keep them dependent on him.

Moazami forced some of the girls to have sex with up to 10 men or more in a day.

At least three of the girls Moazami forced into prostitution were either from the North Shore

or worked out of North Vancouver hotels.

One girl was 14 when she got a call to help a friend who was at a North Vancouver hotel. When she got there, however, Moazami met her and told her she would have to work for him as a prostitute. She did that for several months, seeing customers Moazami arranged either at the hotel or at homes in North Vancouver. The girl said Moazami took all the money she made, kept her high on drugs and didn’t let her out of the hotel room except to meet clients.

She described working for him as “hell.”

Another girl who had a troubled background in West Vancouver and was in foster care described how Moazami lured her into prostitution with promises of money and a glamorous lifestyle.

A North Vancouver RCMP officer who testified in the case described being called to a house on West Kings Road

following a complaint that two young girls were being forced into prostitution there.

When police arrived they found two young girls dressed in provocative clothing and Moazami hiding in the pantry.

In convicting Moazami of the charges, Bruce said Monday, “I am satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt that Mr. Moazami lived off the avails of prostitution in a parasitic manner,” adding it was clear from the girls’ testimony that “he was their pimp.”

It was also apparent that “Moazami created an atmosphere of fear among the girls who worked for him as prostitutes,” said Bruce in her decision.

Once a girl was part of his prostitute business, “he maintained strict control over her movements and her behaviour. He isolated her from friends outside of the prostitution business.

He made her fear the police.”

Second chances I

n this issue we feature the remarkable story of Margaret Benson, a double-lung transplant recipient from North Vancouver.

Benson is among a group of organ recipients and donor families who this week were honoured as part of the Rocky Mountaineer’s annual Train for Heroes.

Fifteen years after her life-saving operation, Benson has continued to be an advocate for organ donation.

And there is little doubt in her mind about who the true heroes of that story are.

Unfortunately, there are still too few of us who are registered as organ donors. Despite overwhelming support for the concept, when it comes to signing up, fewer than 20 per cent of British Columbians have done so. Of those, statistically, less than one per

cent will actually become organ donors.

Meanwhile 500 people in B.C. remain on the waiting list for transplant. That’s math that doesn’t add up the way we’d like it to.

Misconceptions play a part in this. People with particular medical conditions or who are over a certain age may think they are not eligible to be donors. But often that’s not the case.

Some of it is discomfort and social taboos surrounding death. Some of it is probably sheer laziness.

With today’s online system, however, it literally takes only a couple of minutes to register. That act could potentially save up to eight people.

We encourage everyone to think about it, knowing that it could just as easily be you or your loved one on the waiting list one day, hoping for a second chance.

Baby boomers, you are lucky Dear Editor: Over the past two years I have noticed many readers writing in to complain about higher taxes, higher mortgages, and a lack of vacations (yes, things are a far cry from optimal).

It is unfortunate that one of your letter writers (Sylvia Taylor, July 6) was forced to pay $7,044 in property taxes this year. By my calculations, her home should be worth more than $2.5 million, if it’s an older home. Likely it is worth even more.

Count your blessings and consider yourself lucky, Ms. Taylor, that you can afford to sell or remortgage your home since you decided to live beyond your means (typical baby

boomer move, by the way).

Most people in retirement don’t have $2.5 million in assets to fall back on. The retirees I know are worried about rent, medicine and food with a drained bank account and assets worth little to nothing. This brings me to Part 2 of our story, the so-called “lost generation.”

At 26 years of age I am looking at things evolving around me in absolute bewilderment. It is not the economy that has me stumped, nor is it our politicians or those annoying traffic issues due to sprouting North Shore apartment developments no current resident wants.

I can even — to a limited extent — understand it.

What has me so

CONTACTUS

bewildered is the indifference and greed of the majority of our baby boomer parents.

The lack of forethought, planning, and simple ignorance in regards to the younger generations (not only your kids.)

While you were living the majority of your life in a golden age of prosperity and wealth, looking to horde as much as you could accumulate, we are living in recession and are accumulating debt on a provincial, federal, and personal level. The majority of us cannot get a mortgage let alone afford to pay one off, and I will not even get into the huge inflation of housing prices forcing younger generations entirely out of the buyers’ market.

We are having a hard time paying rent.

Our wages are half what yours were even just 20 years ago and yet food, rent, gas, electricity, taxes, school fees (yes, they tax us as well!) have all seen double- or even triple-digit percentage gains. Demands for what are considered necessities for work keep increasing as well — better add my cellphone and Internet bill to the list.

Did I mention that my retirement age was also just raised?

I write this not to complain about the current state of affairs, rather to simply tell the other side of the seemingly rarely told story, the story of the See Breathe page 10

Push for amalgamation lacks measurable goals Dear Editor: Interest has been strongly expressed by the District of North Vancouver to merge with the City of North Vancouver. This idea may have merit although it currently lacks clear and measurable goals, and a sound process to rationally explore the pros and cons of merging.

What is needed is an independent and qualified third party to assist the parties to assess the following types of information: ● Facilitate mutually acceptable goals; ● Prepare a consistent and comprehensive financial picture of the operational and capital

status of both parties including taxation rates; ● Identify similarities and differences in policies and standards; ● Compare staff structures, work roles and expertise, numbers and employee demographics, and, ● Evaluate information systems and applications for similarities and differences.

The process also has to assess the relationship between the parties. A solid foundation of trust and a reasonable history of working together has to exist for a successful merger.

VIEWPOINT

A new dialogue on taxation looms The latest update to the state of the province’s finances is a reminder of two trends that have characterized the priorities of the BC Liberal government since it came to power in 2001.

One is its insistence on not raising personal income tax rates, and the other is its continuing minimalist approach to funding public education.

The BC Liberals boldly slashed income tax rates by 25 per cent almost immediately after assuming power, and one can argue that lost revenue has meant all kinds of services and programs have been shortchanged as a result.

When the NDP government tabled its first budget in 1992, personal income tax revenues contributed 28 per cent of all revenue to government.

The B.C. Liberals’ 2002 budget saw that percentage drop to 21 per cent.

In this year’s budget, personal income tax revenues will make up about 17 per cent of the budget — about the same percentage of the W.A.C. Bennett government’s budget in 1970.

Cutting income taxes has been the rage among all kinds of governments, in Canada and the U.S., whether they lean left or right. It’s a populist approach, but populism can lead to some unintended consequences down the road.

In this instance, spending pressures don’t disappear just because taxes do, and so the BC Liberal government has tapped into peoples’ pockets in different ways — steadily rising MSP premiums, for example

Keith Baldrey

View from the Ledge — to make ends meet.

It has also shifted spending priorities, which brings us to education funding.

Back in 2002, funding for the K-12 education system took up about 19 per cent of the government’s spending dollars.

This year, that percentage has shrunk to barely more than 10 per cent, as funding for the system has essentially been frozen for a number of years. Of course, declining enrolment has played a role in this, but it’s not the only factor that explains this shift.

Another huge factor, of course, is the relentless financial pressure the health care system puts on the provincial budget, as it gobbles up dollars that in previous times may have been spent on other things.

Back in 1970, for example, health care spending took up just 20 per cent of all government spending. It had climbed to 37 per cent by the time the BC Liberals came to power and, on their watch, it has steadily grown and is nearing the point of consuming almost half of all the money collected by government.

In terms of sheer dollars, the comparison between the changes when it comes to funding health care and education is astounding.

The health ministry’s budget this year will be $7.5 billion higher than what it was in 2002, which is somewhat mindboggling. By contrast, the education budget will have grown by less than a halfbillion dollars in that same time period.

While it’s easy to dismiss the hysterical critics who accuse the government of trying to “destroy” or even privatize the education system, it’s true the system is not the spending priority it once was. And education funding has never been a major issue in any recent provincial election campaign, so the BC Liberals haven’t felt much public pressure in this area, with the possible exception of the current teachers contract dispute.

The number of voters who have children in the system has steadily declined over the years, as the Baby Boom generation ages and approaches retirement.

And given the neverending competition with the voracious health care system for more money, there doesn’t appear to be much chance of any dramatic change on this front — unless, of course, the tax regime changes. If personal incomes taxes (or corporate taxes) are given even a modest hike, it may increase available funding for things like education and social services.

But that would take a significant philosophical shift by the BC Liberals (although the Clark government did bump up

MORRIS FOR MAYOR

Do you think the 85 TransLink buses currently dispatached from the 3rd Street and St. Davids Bus Depot should be relocated to Burnaby?

I oppose moving the North Shore’s TransLink Bus Depot to Burnaby! Situating those 85 buses in Burnaby will add to an already chaotic 2nd Narrows bridge traffic problem. Even worse, the 250 bus drivers working from the Bus Depot must now drive to and from Burnaby each day to start their shifts. Bridge traffic will go from bad to worse! Driving those buses to and from the North Shore daily will cost TransLink an additional $1,500,000 annually.

And there is scant evidence the public is clamouring to pay more taxes. However, in the years

ahead, as the quality and quantity of government services and programs inevitably decline, a new dialogue on taxation may have to take place.

Until we get there, however, some pain is

going to be felt in a number of areas. We may not be paying more taxes, but we’ll be paying in other ways.

registrations but citizens in any municipality can still cast a ballot either on election day or at advanced polls but must provide two pieces of identification or mail. One must show a signature and the other must show an address to prove you live in the municipality.

Victims ‘courageous’ From page 5 this week, Crown counsel Kristin Bryson said outside of court she was pleased with the decision.

“I feel like the system worked,” she said.

Bryson said it was “incredibly hard” for the victims in the case to come forward and testify.

“It was nothing short of courageous,” she said, adding she hopes it will encourage other girls in similar situations to come forward.

Some of the convictions carry minimum sentences of five years in jail.

The sentencing for Moazami has been adjourned until December.

INQUIRING REPORTER We may assume a smug superiority after reading one in four Americans believe the sun revolves around the Earth, but isn’t it equally troubling that three out of four North Shore residents don’t vote in local elections? They proudly affix signs of blue and red — and occasionally orange or green — to their front lawns during federal election season. But when it comes to local elections, which have the biggest impact on their lives, far too many vote for apathy. Weigh in at nsnews. com * #(!(") '%($%(!&

Amir Pourdad North Vancouver “Quite honestly, no. Most of the decisions that need to be made centre around what’s going on in more influential parts of the world.”

Is it worth voting in municipal elections?

Bitte Baxter West Vancouver “Absolutely. It’s important because this is where we live.”

Greg Cote Dawson City, Yukon “Of course.You can’t complain if you don’t vote.”

Luis Trudeau North Vancouver “100 per cent.”

Gary Gauthier North Vancouver “Yes.”

Merger not just cuts

From page 6

There needs to be a willingness to systematically assess and evaluate based on mutually accepted information. A process to address and resolve differences is also vital.

Merging is not only about reducing councillors, mayors and management, it is also about finding opportunities to improve services and productivity within the same (or fewer) resources.

N. Van man charged over alleged credit card fraud BRENT RICHTER brichter@nsnews.com

A North Vancouver man is facing multiple charges after police say he was caught using fraudulent credit cards.

North Vancouver RCMP’s economic crime unit began its investigation in July after a financial institution noticed “an unusual pattern” of credit card use at a North Vancouver retailer.

“We were able, through video surveillance, to see he was using fraudulent credit cards,” said Cpl. Doug.

Jaclyn Guillou brings DinahWashington project toWestVan library

Behind the music ■ Behind the Music! Tribute to Dinah Washington, by singer Jaclyn Guillou and friends, Friday, Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m. at West Vancouver Memorial Library, part of the 2014 North Shore Culture Days, Sept.

26-28. artsoffice.ca/news/ns_cdays.php ERIN MCPHEE emcphee@nsnews.com

Jaclyn Guillou is showing no signs of stopping.

On the eve of the release of the Vancouverbased singer’s second album of 2014, Guillou already has her sights set on and is busy writing for her next recording project, slated to get underway in the New Year.

“I don’t want to stop at this point,” she says.

The North Delta native has already had a long career in the arts, having been a working professional since she was a teenager, coming from the world of musical theatre.

In 2011, she released her first album, To The

WARRIOR GAMES _>j9 !L

●

City, comprised of both original songs and new arrangements of jazz standards.

Having worked on To The City for a couple of years, pouring her soul into the project, after its release she took a much-needed break.

“Last year, I just went into this panic mode that I needed to start documenting everything I was doing,” says Guillou. “Enough time has passed, I had more inspiration to continue working on standards in repertoire and to continue working on new music. But the focus that I really wanted to have was to start cataloguing all of my projects, and so to write each project in a different vein.”

Two albums quickly came into fruition.

The first, released in January, was rather spontaneous. On her way to Belgium for some concert dates, Guillou found herself penning some new songs en route, and went on to play them with a group while there.

“We just really had a good time,” she says.

“We recorded just for fun, and then I ended up releasing the album.”

JUDITH GARAY’S 20.20.20 _>j9 kQ

●

A collaborative effort, The Lover’sWalk features Guillou’s European Quartet. In November she’s headed back to Belgium for its official release in that country as well as a string of performances and festival appearances.

Guillou’s pending release, by Cellar Live, her first time ever being on a label, was a lengthier project and was recorded in Port Coquitlam.

“It’s kind of like an all-star Canadian cast on the album,” says Guillou, of Winter For Beginners.

She’s joined by Bruno Hubert on piano, David Blake on guitar, James Meger on bass and Andrew Millar on drums, as well as special guests Peggy Lee on cello, Neelamjit Dhillon on tabla and Brad Turner on trumpet/ flugelhorn.

Turner not only plays on Winter for Beginners, he co-produced it.

TEMPER CHOCOLATE & PASTRY

A Passion for Perfection and Flavour

G

rowing up in Dundarave, Steven Hodge was raised with an appreciation of its tightly knit community and a perspective on what is truly important in life.

After graduating, his travels took him to California where he trained at the California School of Culinary Arts. From there he apprenticed under Wolfgang Puck at Spago Catering.

He also worked at some of the top bakeries and restaurants in greater Los Angeles. His travels took him on further to London England where he worked for Gordon Ramsay at Royal Hospital Road and also the famous Wolseley.

Home beckoned and Steven returned. In 2008, Steven and his wife Lara returned to Vancouver where Steven was given the opportunity to work alongside renowned pastry chef Thomas Haas. After four and a half years, he brought all his training and skills back to the community he has always loved- Dundarave.

a landmark destination for those with a taste for exquisite chocolate, pastries, coffee and treats.

The name Temper comes from the cooking process of Tempering- where chocolate is heated and cooled to create its glossy look and snappy texture.

The end result is a café and pastry shop that would be at home on any street in Europe’s culinary capitals.

Steven knows that creating the best is a matter of raising skill and training to the level of art to coax the best flavour out of the finest ingredients.

Warrior Games delves into history First Nations series looks at the impact of sports on youth culture

Thwack! Thwack!

Thwack!

The players are taking the field but it sounds like a riot squad whacking nightsticks against their shields as they get ready to rush the prisoners in Cell Block #4.

The rhythm is steady but the sound gets louder and louder as the athletes — each cracking what looks like two miniature lacrosse sticks together — get into position.

Way down in Choctaw country in Mississippi, that place where Phil Ochs said the calendar was lying when it read the present time, First Nations play a sport older than Pong, basketball or Canada.

They play stickball.

Not the kind kids play in the Bronx with a broom handle and a rubber ball; the sport First Nation tribes used to play across days and plains, scooping up a leather ball with those two sticks, shrugging off tacklers and trying to hit a

post deep in the opponents’ territory.

For Steve Sxwithul’txw, host and producer of the new reality TV show Warrior Games, the sport is something he’ll experience once — and only once.

“It’s a brutal game,” he says. “It’s no-holds barred.

You’re knocked down, you’re thrown down, you’re tackled, you’re headtackled. There’s injuries . . .

broken legs, broken arms.”

Sxwithul’txw sighs before reasserting his first point: “It’s brutal.”

Asked why he’ll never play it again, Sxwithul’txw assures me I’ll understand when I watch the show.

Over 13 episodes, Sxwithul’txw, a member of the Penelakut Tribe of the Coast Salish Nation, risks bruises to his body and contusions to his pride in

sports ranging from hoop dancing to snowboarding.

He clowns with kids and listens to elders on a journey that takes him across North America.

It was about three years ago a “light bulb went on” and he realized the need for a show focused on Aboriginal youth and elder’s guidance in the world of sport.

“The idea grew and

grew and grew,” he said.

After one rejection and a little revamping, the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network picked up the show.

From there, Sxwithul’txw spent three years getting financing and fanning out across the countries in search of vibrant characters and interesting sports.

In an upcoming episode,

Sxwithul’txw tries his hand at longball, a game with elements of baseball and dodgeball once played by the Plains Cree.

The rules and onlysurviving bat were discovered at the Woodland Cultural Centre in Brantford, Ont., giving new life to the ancient sport.

BOOKS

Hollywood explored frame by frame TERRY PETERS tpeters@nsnews.com

■ Hollywood Frame

by Frame by Karina Longworth. Princeton Architectural Press, 208 pages, $35.

There was a time when Hollywood studios maintained their own photo studios and staff to produce the necessary glamour

images they needed to promote their movies. In the early years this meant separate photo sessions in full costume and makeup using large format cameras.

As technology introduced smaller and more mobile cameras the type of studio image changed too. By the ’60s the 35mm camera was now accepted along with 2 1/4 format for this work and

more spontaneous photos became the norm.

Throughout this era of film cameras the contact sheet was the standard medium for viewing the images.This sheet allowed you to see the entire roll of film reproduced onto one page. It is this contact sheet that is the vehicle for the behind the scenes look offered in this book.

Movies dating back to The African Queen in 1951 all the way forward to The Crow in 1994 are presented in chronological order.

Through the images on the contact sheets we see not just the publicity photos but also those pictures taken when the cast was relaxing together or those moments when the actors confer with the director. Accompanying

the images is background information that fills in the blanks on the history of that production.

Whether it isTippi Hedren talking about being terrorized by Alfred Hitchcock in the making of The Birds or a young Madonna on the set of Desperately Seeking Susan, we are witness to important moments in careers and filmmaking.

The insight into the 71 films that are featured makes for fascinating reading and is a terrific addition to the often-unguarded moments that are captured on film.

■ TheWhoTheWhat andTheWhen by Jenny Volvoski, Julia Rothman and Matt Lamothe, Chronicle Books, 168 pages, $29.95.

History is filled with famous people who would not have been so successful without the aid of another person, who generally remains in the shadows.

These unsung supporters are given the spotlight in this entertaining historical revisit.

Some are obvious choices: parents, wives and partners whose role may not have been given much attention but nonetheless were instrumental in those breakthroughs. But there are many others who laboured tirelessly behind the scenes towards a common goal that brought fame to only one.Their unwavering support is fascinating reading and is presented in a condensed single page version. Accompanying each description is an illustration of them, with a different artist providing the artwork for all of the 65 featured profiles.

The famous subjects are drawn from all walks of life; Coco Chanel,Walt Disney, GeorgeWashington, Gertrude Stein, the Rolling Stones, and dozens more fill the pages as we discover who really were the ones who helped along the way.

■ The Grumpy Cat Guide to Life, Chronicle Books, 112 pages, $15.95.

Preaching from his Internet pulpit, Grumpy Cat has developed an enormous following. Sending out the opposite message of all the self-help gurus, Grumpy Cat wants you to embrace your inner grumpiness and tell the world to stop bothering you.

With daily grump posts, gift cards, puppets, books, calendars, Grumpy Cat

is everywhere. Speaking out for everyone who has had enough sermons on happiness and better living this feline plants the seeds of discontent wherever possible.

Quotes like “Strangers are just enemies you haven’t met yet” or “When writing your own life story, be the villain” clearly outline the Grumpy Cat view on life.

Even the weather is given a swipe with comments like “Snow is Nature’sWay of saying ‘go back inside and get in bed, you idiot.”

Want the Real Beauty Benefits of Collagen?

Generate It. Don’t Eat It!

BioSil Advanced Collagen Generator ™

Clinical Trial Results

• Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles • Increases Skin Elasticity • Thickens and Strengthens Hair • Strengthens Nails By now you know. Adding body collagen directly reduces wrinkles, increases skin elasticity, and adds vital moisture to your skin.

Indirectly, collagen thickens and strengthens your hair. You may also know that collagen production slows by 1% per year after the age of 21. Can you gain it back? Yes. But not by eating collagen. You see, collagen is a protein. When you ingest it, your body breaks it down, like any other protein, and uses it as food. When you want the real beauty benefits of collagen, you have to generate it.

BioSil™ generates collagen by activating the collagen producing cells in your body known as fibroblasts. It is clinically proven to increase collagen formation. In fact, in the clinical trial the women taking BioSil™ reduced wrinkles by 30%, increased skin elasticity by 89% and thickened and strengthened their hair by 13% compared to women not taking BioSil™. So when you want genuine visible results from collagen, generate it, don’t eat it. Experience the beautiful difference for yourself!

Dr. Marita Schauch, BSc ND

debunks myths about collagen “creams,” beauty industry promises and plastic surgery to show you how and why building and generating collagen is an essential component to true health and beauty in her newest book Collagen Myths & Misconceptions.

Bard inspires ‘ultimate highwire act’ Shakespeare’s Musical Improv launches new season at FNL ■ Friday Night Live presents William Shakespeare’s Improv Musical at Lynn Valley United Church on Friday, Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m as part of 2014 North Shore Culture Days.

KNOW THE NEW RULES

2014 GENERAL LOCAL ELECTIONS THIRD PARTY ADVERTISING

Third party advertising is any election advertising not sponsored by a candidate or elector organization.

If the Bard and Broadway had ever met, the result might have been something like William Shakespeare’s Improv Musical — a mad marriage of comedy and songs made up on the spot.

Fresh off its run at Bard on the Beach, Shakespeare’s Improv Musical will play for one performance at Lynn Valley United Church’s Friday Night Live series. It takes place on September 26th, as part of BC Culture Days.

“It’s a great way to kick off Friday Night

Live’s latest season,” says Alan Marriott, who does double duty as improv performer and Friday Night Live Artistic Director.

“Shakespeare’s Improv Musical did very well at Bard on the Beach and we’re thrilled to bring it to the North Shore.”

For audiences, the entertainment is found not only in the witty lines and Shakespearean references but also in the breathtaking daring it takes to come up with ad lib songs -- complete with Bard-inspired lyrics, piano accompaniment and sometimes even a few dance moves for good measure.

“As a performer, it’s the ultimate highwire act,” says Marriott.

All ages are welcome to William Shakespeare’s Improv Musical, 7:30 p.m. on September 26th at Lynn Valley United Church. fnlnorthvan.com.

Since You Left Us September 17 - 28

A comedy about a family reunion & a dog named Jack.

Tickets $14 - $28

If you advertise as a third party from September 30 to November 15 in the 2014 Local Elections, you have new rules to follow under the Local Elections Campaign Financing Act.

■ You must register with Elections BC as a third party sponsor before conducting any advertising.

■ You must include your name and contact information on all advertising.

■ You must not sponsor advertising by, or on behalf of, a candidate or elector organization.

More information on the new rules is available at elections.bc.ca/lecfa. Registration forms and the Third Party Sponsor Guide to Local Elections in B.C. can be downloaded at the Third Party Sponsors page.

Media outlets cannot publish or transmit election advertising on General Voting Day, Saturday, November 15, 2014.

CENTRE FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS 2014-2015 Season

CHRISTINE LYON clyon@nsnews.com

When choreographer Judith Garay marked her 20th year living in Vancouver, she decided to gather 20 dancers and create a performance inspired by 20 city intersections.

The resulting work, two years in the making, is the aptly named 20.20.20, Garay’s movement-based homage to the place she calls home. Co-presented

by Dancers Dancing, a contemporary company under Garay’s artistic direction, and SFU Woodward’s, the show runs Sept. 24 to 27 at Goldcorp Centre for the Arts.

“It’s a large cast of fabulous dancers and the work is inspired by Vancouver,” Garay says of the piece. “I made it because I really wanted to connect with the place I’ve lived in for the longest in my entire life.”

A city is a big muse, so Garay decided to zero in on a few choice locales.

“Being such a large subject, I felt like I needed to narrow it down to something that was a little more graspable to start with, so I chose 20 different intersections,” she says. “In intersections, people pass, vehicles pass, there’s intersections of different kinds of energy, and so it kind of lends itself very organically to the process.”

After perusing lots of maps and conducting site visits, she settled on 20 spots spread across the city that represent a mix of commercial, residential

and industrial.

“Some of them are really noisy and some of them are quieter.”

For example, Main Street and Terminal Avenue is a busy transit hub that is “really about people coming and going,” Garay says. While in the West End, Davie and Denman streets converge at a spot conducive to human interaction. “Everybody there looks so happy. Even

if they’re not, they look like they’re on vacation.”

Grandview Highway at Boundary Road has a whole other flavour. “It’s leaving the city, it’s going onto the highway.”

Looking at Vancouver through the eyes of a choreographer made Garay hyperaware of the contrasts that exist in the city — young and old, rich and poor, light and dark, urban and green. In fact,

she was surprised at just how lush the city is. Even among high-rises and paved overpasses she still found hints of nature.

“You look down in between the buildings in the intersections and you can see parks and trees and mountains. The contrast is pretty amazing,” she says.

“We know that it’s a green city, it’s a green part of See Kinesthetic page 26

the world, but it really hit home and I really notice now all the time.”

Set to original music by Stefan Smulovitz, and featuring lighting by John Carter and costumes by Margaret Jenkins, 20.20.20 represents a melding together of the inspiration Garay drew from each intersection.

“There are sections of the dance where everybody is dancing either together or not together but at the same time, and then there’s duets that are much more intimate, and then there’s smaller groups,” she explains. “There’s also a lot of human interaction in it because I think Vancouver, even though it is surrounded by beauty and has hardedged buildings and all this contrast, it really is the people that make this city.”

The theatre will feature two rows of seats on three sides of the stage, making for an intimate experience for the audience.

“At times they’ll really feel like they’re almost in the dance and I really believe they’re going to get a kinesthetic connection to what the dancers are doing,” Garay says. “I certainly hope that they will come away realizing that even if they’ve lived here their whole life, there’s more to see.”

Gowns blend art and science CHRISTINE LYON clyon@nsnews.com

Fashion designers are known for finding inspiration in unusual places, but cancer research laboratories have been largely overlooked — until now.

Earlier this year, costume designer Jacqueline Firkins, an assistant professor in the UBC Department of Theatre and Film, created 10 evening gowns based on colourful microscopic images of cancer cells and cellular systems.

All 10 of those one-of-a-kind gowns — which use silk taffeta, satin and organza to represent brain tumour tissue and invading cells — will be up for auction on Tuesday, Sept. 23 at the Fashioning Cancer Fundraiser in support of the Canadian Cancer Society

Cancer Prevention Centre at UBC. West Vancouver resident Dr. Carolyn Gotay, who is director of the Canadian Cancer

Society Prevention Centre and a professor in the School of Population and Public Health at UBC, says this fundraiser is unique.

“I’ve never heard of such a project,” she says.

“It really is a mixture between art and science, I think culminating in some beautiful art pieces.”

Firkins originally created the dresses as part of a research project she presented last spring called Fashioning Cancer: The Correlation Between Destruction and Beauty. By making and exhibiting gowns inspired by cell images captured in the lab of UBC professor Christian Naus, Firkins sought to open up dialogue about cancer, beauty and body image.

“My hope is that somehow through fashion, I more closely tap into what a woman might be feeling about her body as she undergoes the See Bif Naked page 31

The dresses were also intended as a visual alternative to existing wearable cancer symbols — for example, the ubiquitous pink ribbon as a fashion statement for breast cancer awareness.

While pink ribbons may inspire many, others might connect more with Firkins’ artistic imagery.

“There’s beauty in art, but there’s also a meaning behind it,” says Gotay. “I hope that it will start a conversation and, from my perspective, I hope it will start people thinking about what we can do to prevent (cancer) from happening.”

Gotay says the goal of

the prevention centre is to raise the profile of cancer prevention as part of the entire cancer picture.

“We’re trying really to make a difference that will translate eventually into fewer cases of cancers being diagnosed, because about half of cancers could be prevented if we applied what we know right now,” she says.

FILM

Neeson perfect as imperfect PI ■ A Walk Among The Tombstones. Directed

by Scott Frank. Starring Liam Neeson.

Rating: 7 (out of 10) JULIE CRAWFORD ContributingWriter

Liam Neeson’s particular set of skills are now so legendary that last week comedian Seth Meyers called for the actor to step up in the war on terror: “This week President Obama will announce his plans for addressing the threat posed by ISIS extremists in Iraq — at this point he should just tell Liam Neeson that they have his daughter.”

The actor is still kicking butt into his sixties, a relatively new film concept that plays well for the baby-boomer crowd and has been a surprise hit with that younger, key demographic, too. And why not? Sylvester Stallone is 68. Harrison Ford is 72.

MUSIC

Guillou’s new album ‘very West Coast’ From page 13

Guillou met the artist after playing a gig with him years ago.

“I kind of considered that my audition,” she says.

A huge fan, she was pleased to be able to

reconnect with him through her quintet member, Hubert, who plays in Turner’s quartet, and get him on board with her project.

The work is quite contemporary in nature, a direction she is continuing

to move in as she matures as an artist.

“I think I’m settling into not feeling like I have to write a certain thing or be a certain thing. It just feels very embodied and it feels very natural. It feels like a bigger piece of me in the writing and in the approach to the music. It’s soft and it’s romantic and it’s dark and moody, all the things that are me,” she laughs.

In terms of its theme, Winter for Beginners, is “very West Coast,” says Guillou.

“People tell me that you can hear rain drops when you listen to it,” she says.

Songs, including the album’s title track, which is an instrumental work, are divided into four seasons, subtitled “When the Leaves Fall,” “Winter for Beginners,” “Spring is like a Promise for Beauty,” and “Summer Where?”

“There are a few different meanings behind the title, mainly just being I feel like anywhere I go in the world where it’s winter, I feel like a beginner. I feel like I can’t bear the cold, I can’t handle it. I lived in Toronto for seven years and I kind of got used to the cold and then I came back to Vancouver, and January, I was cold, and it’s not even cold here.

I’m just kind of not able to handle winter very well so it’s kind of my funny way of admitting that I’m a summer girl,” she says.

Guillou’s concept for the project was to address nature and the seasons and how people relate, react and respond to those things. All of the songs speak to those ideas, including the record’s two covers, including “Land of the Silver Birch” a Canadian folk song based on a poem by Pauline Johnson, and “Poetry Man”

by Phoebe Snow, released in 1974.

“I was always really, really a fan of her and the song. I would carry around her record. Every time I would go into the recording studio, it was kind of like my good luck charm. Somebody told me you should bring things you like into the studio so I would carry around this vinyl record.Then she died a couple of years ago and I felt so sad and so bad because I always wanted to make an arrangement as a tribute to her and maybe she would get to hear it,” says Guillou.

Local audiences looking to see Guillou in action sooner can catch her at Behind the Music! Tribute to DinahWashington, Friday, Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m. at the West Vancouver Memorial Library.

The performance is part of Culture Days, a national movement intended to raise awareness, accessibility and engagement of Canadians in the arts and cultural life of their communities.

The 2014 North Shore Culture Days is offering a host of free, all-ages events, activities and performances at a number of North and West Vancouver venues,

next weekend, Sept. 26-28.

Guillou performed her inaugural tribute concert to Washington, one of her first jazz influences, back in 2013. The show was recorded at and aired by CBC TV and Radio. She’s continuing the project and working to expand it, a welcome opportunity to keep listening to and learning about the artist, her music and accomplishments, as well as pay homage to her.

“She was a phenomenal talent. It just blows my mind every time I learn a new tune or try to figure out a little thing that she did with her voice because she really was a prodigious . . . talent that paved the way for a lot of singers and created a completely unique style and way of

singing,” says Guillou.

Guillou works to share Washington’s lesser known and more popular tracks, for example, “What a Difference a Day Made” and “Cry me a River.”

“When you look at this new music that I’m creating and releasing and recording, it’s very contemporary, very modern, very much a statement of me and who I am. Then to have this project where we pay homage to Dinah Washington, it feels amazing and it feels like the right thing to do to keep the jazz tradition alive,” she adds.

Guillou will be joined at the West Vancouver library by her band, special guests and the singers of Company B.

Each show a learning experience From page 19 window into a way of life, such as the kneel jump, which trained young hunters to move quickly when ice broke beneath their feet.

The show also includes contemporary sports like snowboarding.

“It’s something our kids enjoy and for me it’s something that I had to learn,” Sxwithul’txw says.

“I suffered some injuries doing that show.”

As viewers, we

experience each sport through Sxwithul’txw, who despite being in his late 40s and classifying himself as “past my prime, obviously,” takes a crack at each sport.

“Through hell or high water, I get ‘er done,” he says.

Each show is a learning experience, and as an outsider in another band’s territory, each show revolves around youth showing Sxwithul’txw the right way to do things, he notes.

Sxwithul’txw is the show’s host but the emphasis is on First

Nations youth and their excitement in carrying on culture and traditions with the guidance of their elders. “(It) gives even nonindigenous people a view of what makes us tick and how close-knit we are in terms of our families and our communities.”

Warrior Games is intended to cross all demographics, according to Sxwithul’txw.

2015 BMW 4 Series

BMW’s hot new number This may be one of the most controversial changes BMW has made in decades with the 3 Series — separating out the coupe version from the sedan/wagon models.

With BMW continuing to grow the 3 Series lineup, they decided to differentiate the coupe versions with fresh nomenclature by calling it the 4 Series in much the same way there are currently both the 5 Series and the 6 Series.

Introduced last year, the BMW 4 Series replaced the 3 Series Coupe.The 4 Series is the choice for buyers who

David Chao

Behind the Wheel want BMW 3 Series quality and reliability, but the sporty look of a coupe.

The 4 Series competes with the likes of the Audi A5,

the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and the Cadillac ATS Coupe.

For 2015, the 4 Series lineup sees the arrival of several new models to the standard 4 Series Coupe, which makes everything a bit more confusing.They’ve added what they call the Gran Coupe, which is a four-door “coupe,” if that makes any sense to you. It is a beautiful piece of rolling art in many ways, and it may be one of the prettiest BMWs around.

BMW has also added a Cabriolet with a threepiece folding roof and

performance enthusiasts can look forward to the new M4 Coupe or M4 Cabriolet with astounding performance.

Design All 4 Series models are based on the 3 Series platform. Available engine and transmission options are mirrored in the 3 Series models.

The 4 Series is wider, lower and longer than both the old 3 Series Coupe and the new 3 Series Sedan.

The 4 Series Gran Coupe manages to add two doors See Coupe page 44

Last week, I headed down to Everett to see a special car: the last Jensen Interceptor to leave the original factory just before it went bankrupt.

Actually, in this case the machine was doubly charged with historical interest as its owner, Kjell Qvale, holds the distinction of being a pivotal figure in the early story of the sports car in North America.

Aside from founding the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, campaigning cars at Watkins Glen and Indianapolis, and being involved with the construction of what’s now Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, Qvale was also the major shareholder in Jensen Motors. In the early 1970s, he brought See New page 47

Coupe features best of BMW design

From page 42

without adding to the wheelbase or overall length — it is marginally taller though.The Cabriolet is also slightly taller and is the heaviest of the bunch.

The M4 was recently introduced alongside its M3 sibling and features more performance-focused styling to go with tremendous power and torque.The M4 receives a generous serving of carbon fibre, most notably its roof, and also shows off an aggressive lower grille, more aerodynamic mirrors and quad exhaust.

Inside, a 4 Series feels very much like a 3 Series as it retains BMW’s tradition of shaping the cabin around the driver.The Gran Coupe offers better access to the rear seats and some more cargo space without losing the design characteristic of a coupe profile.

In all iterations, the 4 Series is a beautiful machine inside and out with a striking silhouette that brings out the best of BMW design.

Performance All three of the standard 4 Series models, the Coupe, the Cabriolet and the Gran Coupe, are available with the choice of two engines.

In base 428i trim, the power comes from a 2.0-litre turbo four cylinder rated at 241 horsepower and 258 footpounds of torque. Stepping up to the 435i bumps output to an even 300 h.p. and 300 foot-pounds of torque from a 3.0-litre turbo straight six.

Rear-wheel drive is the standard layout, but all three can be outfitted with BMW’s xDrive all-wheel drive system. An eight-speed automatic transmission is standard, but a six-speed manual can be equipped to Coupe and Gran Coupe models.

With a wider stance and lower centre of gravity, the 4 Series boasts better agility, acceleration and balance than the impressive 3 Series.While it is sportier, the ride can be stiff, making rough pavement more See Rear page 46

Rear seats a tight squeeze for tall adults

From page 44

uncomfortable and noisier.

The newest M variants from BMW are some of the best German sport luxury cars ever.The M4 is powered by a 3.0litre twin-turbo inline six producing 425 h.p. and 406 foot-pounds of torque. It is capable of sprinting to 100 kilometres per hour in less than four and a half seconds.

The driving experience is nothing short of phenomenal but you have to remember that this is a pure sports car with a focus on maximizing driving enjoyment above comfort.

As in the past, the M4 is only available in rear wheel drive but does come with the choice of either a six-speed manual or a seven-speed dual-clutch auto.

The 4 Series have adopted the 3 Series’ electric power steering system. It does lose some road feel over a hydraulic unit, but it still provides accurate and precise control.

The front and rear suspensions have been tweaked to increase stiffness and save weight.This contributes to making this generation of M cars the easiest to drive fast.

Environment The 4 Series has a four-passenger cabin, but while the front seats are comfortable, in the Coupe, Cabriolet and M4, the rear seats lack sufficient headroom for the average adult.The Gran Coupe remedies that somewhat, but most adults won’t find it enjoyable for long drives.

The design and equipment are largely the same across the range and make the 4 Series feel suitably sporty. All of the controls are within easy reach and the latest iDrive system is simpler to use, especially with its touchsensitive controller with letter recognition on the optional navigation system.

Travelling in a 4 Series is reasonably comfortable as well.The Cabriolet is the nicest cruiser, and even with the top down and the windows up, there is very little buffeting from the wind.

BMW has also done a nice job of strengthening the chassis to compensate for the lack of a roof. As a result, there are no annoying rattles See Low page 49

TODAY’S DRIVE

New collectors look for new classics From page 42

Donald Healey on board, and the Jensen-Healey was born as a way to replace the defunct Austin-Healey, a popular bestseller at Qvale’s American dealerships.

Seeing “Mr. Qvale” scrawled on the keychain, and seeing this spareno-expense restoration rumble to life with its big Chrysler V-8 heart was a thrill, not to mention getting to boot it along for a couple of blocks.Yet the more I spoke with the man who’d restored it, the more I heard the same story I’ve seen elsewhere through the classic car world. His business was for sale. It was time to retire. He’d looked for an apprentice for 10 years, but couldn’t find a good fit, and as his retirement plans included relocating to an island in the Caribbean, a large chunk of know-how would be going with him, lost forever.

He spoke about the calls he was getting from sons and daughters, looking for a way to sell on their father’s prized Interceptor. The time, money, and storage these beasts consume can’t be taken lightly, and to have one suddenly thrust into your life is an inconvenience if you don’t have the passion for it.

Most just want to know what it’s worth so they can move it on.

If you hang around at Wilkinson’s Automobilia over off Broadway for any length of time, you’ll see something similar. Here, the collections of Corgis and Dinky toys that once occupied the lion’s share of shelf space have shrunk to a few corners. When last I was there, interviewing Ted Wilkinson on the occasion of his shop’s 25th anniversary, he received two phone calls and a walk-in from older folks who were downsizing, and one recently widowed woman who simply didn’t know what to do with all her husband’s stuff.

There’s a sense that time is running out for the classic car, a feeling that’s exacerbated by frequent

articles highlighting the disaffection so-called millennials have for the automobile. Car-sharing, high insurance and fuel prices, improving transit routes, increasingly poor traffic — these are all factors causing the next generation to fall out of love with the car.

But here’s the thing: that’s just one side of the coin. It’s my belief that there’s something else going on entirely.

If you head to any neighbourhood-sized show and shine during the summer, you’ll see how the number of Model Ts and Model As has shrunk to something of a remnant.

Yes, they’re still around, but the people who would remember driving them in their youth mostly aren’t.

The bulk of the cars on display are the usual ‘50s, ‘60s, and ‘70s machines, and it’s those owners who feel like their hobby is slipping into the twilight.

But if you look a little closer, you start seeing the other stuff that’s showing up at these events: pristine 1980s GTIs, maybe a well-cared-for 300ZX Turbo, an original Acura NSX. And then, if you attend something less traditional, like the annual Revscene summer meet, you’ll find a whole host of four-wheeled machines with younger owners who are just as excited by their hobby as any baby boomer. Vancouver has a large and active MR2 club.

There’s a drift community.

There’s an underground movement for modifying scooters into bosozukustyle choppers. There’s a club that focuses entirely on the E28 BMW 3 Series, and one that champions the new FR-S/BRZ sports cars.

On the traditional domestic front, the prices of Fox-body Mustangs are actually on the rise. Sure, you’ll still see a hacked-up one from time to time, but it’s surprising how often a

bolt-on turbos.

The era of the British sports car that Kjell Qvale was a part of faded away long ago, but it continues to echo down the ages.

Partly, that’s due to the efforts of those who preserved the best of the breed, but it also might have something to do with the Miata’s homage to that original spirit. Today, those early Miatas are themselves a classic car, if not quite so demanding as a British Leyland product.

Still, if an E-Type and an NA Miata owner bump

and Euro-centric than in the past, but the passion for keeping a new sort of classic on the road is most certainly there.

Eventually, there’ll be less of an interest in big fins, chrome, and largedisplacement engines. It’s not something to worry about though, merely a shift in the culture to a new set of potential classics. As ever, a gearhead will happily talk to another gearhead about anything, carburetors and piggy-back ECUs, flowmasters and

relatively clean and faithful build shows up. Ditto lategen Camaros, and even the odd IROC. Yes, classic car culture is shrinking, or perhaps readjusting, but there’s also a shift going on to the cars of the 1980s and 1990s — the machinery of a new generation’s youths.

Mustangs, Camaros, and Mopars will always be cool, so that stuff will continue to stick around, but there’s an infusion of fresh blood into the show-and-shine scene. It’s possibly more Japanese

However, the metal roof does significantly cut into the cargo space.With the roof up, trunk space is not too bad, but with it down, you would be hard-pressed to fit more than one mediumsized suitcase in the back.

If cargo space is a concern, the Gran Coupe is the most practical 4 Series.

The hatchback-style trunk lid creates a larger opening, making it easier to load items, and total space is the same as the base 3 Series.

The more powerful M4 sees those numbers jump to 12.0 l/100 km.

Thumbs up The 4 Series comes with a powerful base engine that suits its sporty coupe styling.

Thumbs down The 3 Series provides similar performance with more space, so people may want to cross shop across both model ranges.

The bottom line The 2015 BMW 4 Series may be the best execution

The A5/S5 is available in three models, with a cabriolet version of each, and starts at $43,900.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe The C-Class is a safe, reliable and luxurious car respected for excellence.
