2010 BMW X6M X5M
The modern, sustainable legacy of BMW M GmbH began in 1985 when engineers placed the snarling, race-bred inline-6 engine from the M1 supercar into the production BMW 5 Series sedan, reworked the suspension and brakes, and created the first M5
Through this industry-first combination of attributes, the M5 redefined the capabilities of a sedan with levels of power, precision, balance and linear control never before imaginable. Since then, finding new ways to expand the boundaries of what is possible with existing BMW models has been the singular purpose of the craftsmen at BMW M. Now the BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M are the first all-wheel-drive models to offer the remarkable performance, dynamic driving experience, athletic design, and premium quality of a BMW M product.

Is this the BMW CS Concept/8-Series/GT ?
November 4th represents the day when BMW fans’ hopes to see a hig-end luxury car were shuttered by BMW. The highly-acclaimed and admired CS Concept was officially cancelled by BMW’s Board of Directors due to financial reason and the current economical climate.
Even though the project received the axe, we did learn that the CS Concept might make its return in the future, most likely as under the Rolls-Royce brand. The CS Concept was rumored for months to take on different name conventions, starting with CS, then the revival of 8 Series or even GT.
The fellows at Autobild spotted two photos of what it seems to be a model based on the new 7 Series but with some differences, especially on the front-end.
EnI, a member of Germancarzone, as someone close to BMW, confirms that the CS Project is still going on, but most likely, it will emerge as a baby Rolls-Royce.
I was told although BMW GT project had been ready to begin the initial testing when BMW Board of Directors decided not to offer this car under BMW but under RR badge. Of course RR design is far from being ready; the design process has just begun. But the BMW-like CS prototypes are starting the testings as scheduled – until RR design is ready.�

The BMW X5 M?
While many spy car forums and bloggers are dubbing this vehicle the X5 M, we have some inside information that suggests that this will be the equivalent of what the 4.8is was to the previous generation of X5’s – the ultimate in power and handling throughout the X5 model line.
2007 3 Series Cabriolet Test Drive
The BMW 335i Convertible is the perfect solution for those who can’t decide between a performance coupe and a performance convertible.
Year in and year out, perhaps no car has shrugged off more challenges than the BMW 3 Series. But while Asian and American rivals have yet to equal the BMW’s refinement and pure handling capabilities, they have certainly been cranking up the power. They seem to feel that if they can’t out-finesse the Bimmer, they’ll simply crush it instead.
BMW at the IAA in Frankfurt
BMW put on quite a spectacle at Frankfurt this year. With the introduction of the X6 Concept, X6 Active Hybrid Concept, the redesigned 1 series and of course new technologies within the EfficientDynamics concept; you could say that BMW brought out the big guns. I have collected a series of videos that will help illustrate just why BMW’s are the Ultimate Driving Experience!
Which Automobile Company is the Cleanest?
BMW puts shame on the rest of the motoring industry with their improved fuel efficiency and CO2 emission rate.
So which carmaker is the world’s cleanest? Not sure? Well, an independent survey released last week has found that BMW has most improved its average fuel efficiency and CO2 emission rate. Indeed, it’s done so to an extent which will embarrass other carmakers.
