For me its not so much about the questions but the ability to restrict the search
So for instance, if I was buying a BMW E46 M3 and I wanted to know more about it, I would search BMW E46 M3 or just E46 M3
What I don't want is the return of 250 what car threads where it gets suggested, so if I could restrict my search to the BMW forums it would be a lot better rather than the masses of content from GG. I assume this would also assist you guys from a tech side as the search itself would be pulling a lot less data

Forum searches would be useful to specify by forum. It used to work by including f=num but is unreliable with google search. Most people would find it a faff to find the f numbers anyway so an option to include one or more specific forums would be dead handy like.
Logical operators:
Logical operators:
- Must include and NOT include would be nice, like google used to. e.g. +keyword or -keyword
- AND and OR although I suppose AND could be covered by the + above
