BMW has a hard-won reputation for being the most performance-focused of the luxury brands, but these days, it seems to be rapidly losing the plot. Odd aesthetic choices such as the pig snouts on the M3 and M4 can be accepted if the car performs well, but when the M cars start resembling pigs in […]
For over 50 years, the BMW M Series has brought racing-inspired performance to the streets.

By the time we hit the […]
In the realm of BMW’s compact offerings, three sedans in the company’s lineup have enthusiasts running the numbers, comparing the specs, and looking at the telemetry to figure out which one offers the best bang for the buck. First, you have the recently minted i4 Gran Coupe, which made its debut in the 2022 model […]
Once upon a time, cars were the heart and soul of the auto industry. Trucks were for farmers and getting work done, and models that would today be called SUVs were a rarity, so most people drove cars. In that misty age, so long ago, standard four-door sedans were quite popular. However, for drivers looking […]
No matter how you look at it, sports cars cost more than their tamer siblings. That’s the bad news; the good news is that there are still plenty of different options out there at a relatively wide range of prices, which means there is a used sports car that can meet almost any budget. Whether […]
Calling a BMW “luxurious” is a bit silly; it’s repetitive and a lot like calling a sedan a “car” or saying an SUV has a rear hatch. Simply by virtue of being a BMW, we already know a model will deliver impeccable luxury; what their vehicles do beyond that point truly defines them. There’s a […]
As far as I’m concerned, the BMW that’s the absolute most fun to drive is the Z4 Roadster, which is the only pure sports car currently available in BMW’s lineup—that’s a big part of why it’s my top choice.

Naturally, like any sport, there are many ways everyday folks can get involved that don’t include, A) becoming the main character of your own movie by getting dropped in […]
If you’re like me, you love sedans. SUVs and pickup trucks have their strengths, no doubt about it. But the sedan? There’s just something about it that’s hard to beat. Perhaps it’s the low-to-the-ground position that gives me the sensation of racing. Maybe it’s how a sedan can so easily gain a sporty feel. Or […]
The year is 2023. Inventories are fluctuating. Prices are high. Wyoming wants to ban electric vehicles at the same time that California wants to ban internal combustion engines. The future is as muddled as that statement implies, but any BMW iX dealer might tell you otherwise. They’re selling the car of the future and that […]
BMW has made its way into automotive history by releasing a steady stream of beautiful and powerful cars.

You know you’re getting seriously deep into car culture, vicariously or not, when you start to recognize and talk about specific vehicles by their internal identification codes.

We’ve all heard the jokes about the “Zupra,” and there are few car enthusiasts left who don’t know that the new Toyota Supra is really a BMW Z4 at its heart. Rather than rehash the debate over whether the A90 is a “real” Supra, it might be worth embracing the controversy and asking which of […]
