The BMW Z8 (E52) lives in that rare air. See one today and it doesn’t read as “early-2000s” at all. It reads as correct. If you’re […]

Here’s my thesis, upfront: if I had $500,000 to spend on a modern BMW indulgence, I’d buy the Speedtop — not because the Skytop isn’t gorgeous, but because the Speedtop is the more “BMW” BMW.

The dealership works at a pace that allows it to maintain a broad but controlled selection of pre-owned high-line vehicles, with much of its inventory sourced through quality trade-ins from new-car dealerships.

In the latest episode of the BMWBLOG Podcast, we keep it simple: three big test drives, one conversation — and (briefly) one very confident cat. Episode 16 is all about recent seat time, from a soaked racetrack in South Carolina to sunny southern Spain, ending with real-world impressions of BMW’s newest super wagon. We start

Some cars are important because of what they are. Others matter because of who owned them. On rare occasions, those two narratives intersect. We’ve got a good one today: a rock-star owned BMW M1. The BMW M1 is arguably a cornerstone of both the BMW and M brands. As the first true M vehicle, it
