Southern California is a hotbed of auto enthusiasts and one of our most active regions with respect to meets and greets. Here are some photos from a few recent SoCal events. Participate in a recent event? Post up those photos!
Many of us were impressed by this year’s M3 GT2 Art Car by Jeff Koons, but how many of us know the history behind BMWs Art Car concept, including the impetus for the projects, first iteration, and subsequent history? BMW has released this video to school us.
Take a look at this BMW 335i Convertable which looks to be part of the BMW Individual lineup and uses the exclusive paint color called “Fire Orange”
We bring you the first video of the F30 / F31 3-series Touring prototype on the streets of Germany. Most of the car is still clad in heavy camouflage, but as with the F30 sedan spy photos so far, shape, size, and proportions can be gleamed from these early spy photos/videos.
According to our BMW Roadmap, the next generation 3-series sedan and touring are expected sometime in 2012. Several variants are expected of the next gen 3-series, including sedan, coupe, touring, GT version, and of course the M3.
Be sure to follow our F30/F31 homepage coverage: http://www.bimmerpost.com/?s=+f30
To better capture the U.S. market with the new BMW X3, BMW spent more time and effort on new North American owner friendly upholders than anyone would ever expect. Big Gulp fans rejoice. Seriously though, if this proves helpful to North American X3 sales, then it was money and time well spent.
Cnet has ventured into BMW reviews, first with their 335is review and now the Z4 sDrive35is. The sDrive35is impressed cnet’s reviewer with its balance of driving fun, daily drivability, advanced technologies, and good looks. Check out their impression and video review inside.
BMW has released full U.S. pricing for all F10 5-series models and options, including M-sport package price and details. See inside for 528i, 535i, 535i xDrive, 550i, and 550i xDrive, options, and package pricing.
BMW CCA is dropping some seriously strong hints that the 1M Coupe may be “sneak peek” introduced at this year’s BMW CCA Oktoberfest at Road America in WI. Using words such as “fast, light, nimble car” to refer to the yet unknown car, and drawing references to other M-cars, as well as saying that the head of BMW M GmbH will be in attendance, these could not be stronger hints to a 1M Coupe intro!
BMW’s M-power site has posted this in-car track video of the 1 Series M Coupe prototype on the Ascari Race Track from last month. This is perhaps the best sound bite yet of the 1M Coupe that we have seen/heard.
We’ve only previously seen the Power Green individual color on a 1-series, but a Power Green Metallic M3 has now been spotted. And you thought Dakar Yellow and Laguna Seca Blue were flashy individual colors for the E92 M3!
