ADVERTISEMENT BMW teased the i7 yesterday by showing the fullsize luxury sedan undergoing acoustic testing. While the main subject was to detail how the engineers made the electric 7 Series quiet on the inside, another tidbit was indirectly revealed.

As someone who is living in Europe and always pays sticker (or less) for a car, I find the concept of being charged extra by a dealer quite baffling. In today’s crazy market, paying the seller’s premium is even more of an issue. The lack of available vehicles to buy is a blessing in disguise

BMW M customers are spoiled for choice considering there haven’t been so many models to pick from. Take for example the M3/M4 lineup, with manual and automatic transmissions as well as RWD and AWD setups. Then there’s the i4 M50, which technically isn’t a fully fledged M car, but it can play in the big

Being a premium brand selling small cars while trying to make a profit is not easy. Just ask Mercedes as it has sold half of its shares in Smart to form a joint venture with Geely.

ADVERTISEMENT We are likely months away from seeing the new BMW M2, but not before Manhart comes out with another upgrade for the F87. It’s based on the spicy Competition model, made even hotter by the German tuner on its quest to squeeze every last drop of performance. It’s more than just a remapped ECU

Before the M2 Coupe arrives later this year, the M240i serves as the temporary range topper. It’s not a fully-fat M car, but it is one of the last small cars with an inline-six sans electrification.  A new video reconfirms that BMW underrates the performance capabilities of its cars since the M Performance model is

In the not-too-distant future, enthusiasts will look back at BMW performance cars with nostalgia. M models will live in the EV era, but some of the magic will be lost after abandoning the ICE. The old saying “enjoying while it lasts” is highlighted here in a new video featuring a trio of inline-six M3s from
