Today we&#8217;re reviewing something outside the immediate BMW world to give you a bit more insight into the increasingly important electric car market.

Nothing prepares you for the feeling of a really fast car. Hitting 60 mph in anything under four seconds is a sensation that is both riveting and alarming (at first). But take away [...]]]></description>

BMW Performance 335i

Not so long ago we had the privilege of spending some time with Eric Riehle Accessory Development Manager for BMW Performance and Motorsport as well as a fully equipped 335i. The 335i was in sedan form as BMW Performance does not currently offer as extensive a list of parts for the coupe (yet). [...]]]></description>

The 2010 BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo presents itself as an SUV that is not an SUV, a sport wagon that is not a sport wagon, a sedan that is not a sedan and lastly a coupe that is not a coupe. If it is none of those things, then what is it? That is [...]]]></description>

BMW started from a clean slate when it undertook the redesign of the 7 series for the 2009 model year. With that said, the engineers and designers have created a vastly superior product this go around. Gone is the controversial styling, the overwhelming electronics and the handling which made many reviewers praise the Audi A8. [...]]]></description>

No one really needs an BMW X6. There is no specific need it fulfills unlike an X5 let alone a 3 Series. It is purely a lifestyle vehicle akin to a 6 Series or even a Z4. Yet why is it so much more contentious than either? Clearly the height, weight and the nature of [...]]]></description>

Brute force. Testosterone laden visceral feel. Über man-ness. These are qualities the new Z4 does not have an abundance of. Even with the optional M Suspension set to the hardest setting, the 2009 Z4 35i feels softer than a bone stock 2008 Z4. Hardly the stuff of BMW legend you might say.

The X5 has always been a lightening rod for loyal BMW enthusiasts. An SUV (or SAV or crossover depending on who you talk to) it went AWD when BMW&#8217;s were about rear wheel drive. It&#8217;s catered to utility and high seating positions when BMW&#8217;s were suppose to be about driver involvement. And it was big. [...]]]></description>

The 5 Series has always occupied an important role for BMW. For years it has straddled the line between sports and luxury sedan. On one side the 3 Series&#8217; shape and weight allow it to be overtly sporty (if optioned correctly). On the other the 7 Series is unashamedly luxurious.
