BMW X4 gets police livery from AC Schnitzer
The tuner's fourth TUNE IT! SAFE! car
German tuner AC Schnitzer was in charge of turning the BMW X4 into a police car as part of the TUNE IT! SAFE! Initiative by the Association of German Vehicle Tuners.
It's actually their fourth vehicle of this kind after the 2009 BMW 123d Coupe, 2010 MINI E and last year's BMW 428i Coupe. For 2014 they focused on the BMW X4 in the 20i guise and they bumped output of the four-cylinder 2.0-liter turbo engine from 184 HP (135 kW) to 245 HP (180 kW). Thanks to these changes, the X4 now runs the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint in 6.7 seconds while the 50-112 mph (80-180 km/h) sprint is done in 17.5 seconds before hitting a top speed of 132 mph (212 km/h).

2016 BMW 7-Series engine lineup leaked? Up to 600 HP and two hybrids
Base model will be a 730i with 260 HP
Spanish media has managed to acquire extensive details about the engines BMW will offer in the next generation 7-Series.
Motor.es is citing an unknown German source who apparently shed some light about the motorization options in Bavaria's flagship model set to be offered with a standard wheelbase (G11) and long wheelbase (G12). The range will allegedly kick off with a 730i model packing a four-cylinder 2.0-liter (codenamed B48B20O0) only for the G11 in which it will develop 260 HP (191 kW).

Why I bought an old ’91 BMW M5 (and why you may want one)

Mind blowing. That’s what I thought of the second-generation BMW M5 in a time when the Ferrari Testarossa still captivated teens watching "Miami Vice." Even though it looked almost indistinguishable from a run-of-the-mill 535i, it had a straight-line acceleration nearing a Ferrari, and only came in a manual. Plus, they were rarer than the Prancing Horses roaming West L.A. But with a starting price of $55,000 (over $90,000 in today’s dollars), owning the sleeper was out of the realm of possibility for decades —t hat is, until a couple months ago, when I drove home a 1991, E34 Alpine White M5.
BMW announces next-gen core models will get differentiated styling

Starting 2015
BMW has announced plans to roll out different designs for its next generation of core models.
Many people are criticizing both mainstream and premium automakers for launching cars with very little styling differentiations within the range but now it seems at least one of them will address this issue. According to BMW brand design director Karim Habib, next-gen cars will look more different than one another as the Bavarian marque says each model is going "to have its little world."
2015 BMW i8 Sophisto Grey

I’m beginning to wonder if BMW’s Abu Dhabi dealership has too much time on its hands. In the past week, the dealership has unveiled three personalized BMW vehicles. First we saw the stunning BMW M235i. That was followed by the equally alluring BMW M3 with M Performance Parts. Now, it has a BMW i8, or to be more specific, the i8 Sophisto Grey.
2016 BMW M4 GTS Testing on the Nurburgring
The BMW M4 is arguably one of the most enticing sports coupe you can buy nowadays, but Munich seems determined to take its new compact up a notch. The Germans are doing so by reviving the GTS nameplate, which was introduced on the 2010 model year M3 Coupe. Only 250 units were built that year, and the entire series sold like hotcakes. Although BMW has yet to confirm the return of the GTS with the M4 Coupe, testing is already underway, albeit with a prototype disguised as a MotoGP Safety Car.
BMW i8S in the works, could run from 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds
