The weapons-grade M5 sports a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 with 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque, making the M5
mighty quick. Some say the fastest four door sedan on the market. It launches to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds and snaps
off a 10.9-second quarter-mile time at 129 mph. This BMW has a high-tech drivetrain that can send 100 percent of
power to the rear wheels for pure rear-drive personality. Driving enjoyment is maximized here with lively and
direct steering, a well-controlled (borderline stiff) ride, and heroic cornering grip. That doesn't mean the M5
can't also do duty as a luxury sedan: In Comfort mode it cruises placidly and the cabin is whisper quiet.
Along with its unique exterior appearance and enhanced performance, the M5 has a unique leather interior with
supple and supportive sport seats. The driving position is optimized for performance-style driving, and BMW hasn't
gone the all-touchscreen route that many of its rivals have, so making changes to the air conditioning or adjusting
the radio during driving causes little distraction. The large infotainment display runs BMW's latest iDrive
software, sits atop the dash to the right of the driver's sightlines, and is controlled by a rotary knob on the
center console. BMW offers driver-assistance features such as lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control,
blind-spot monitoring, and automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection as standard equipment. I have all
the keys, books, title in hand, original window sticker and probably anything else you are thinking I should have.

Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo torquing its way toward Frankfurt
Mon, 09 Sep 2013 10:29:00 ESTFew tuners benefit from the kind of factory support that Alpina does, giving the pseudo-aftermarket firm nearly as much official status as BMW's own M division. And this is its latest product.
Set to debut, as expected, at the Frankfurt Motor Show this week is the new Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo, which you can consider, for all intents and purposes, the diesel M3 that BMW never built. While the outgoing D3 (which was Alpina's best-selling model) used a four-cylinder engine, Autocar reports that the new model packs a 3.0-liter, twin-turbo inline-six diesel to drive a respectable 345 horsepower but a mammoth 516 pound-feet of torque to either the rear wheels or all four through the optional availability of xDrive. (European buyers will also be able to choose between sedan and wagon bodystyles.)
The engine is the same as you'd find in the XD3 and D5 (Alpina's diesel performance versions of the X3 and 5 Series, respectively), but in the lighter 3 Series form can propel the D3 Bi-Turbo up to 62 miles per hour in 4.6 seconds and on to an Autobahn-crunching top speed of 173 mph. And as per Alpina tradition, visual cues are minimal, with a subtly optimized aero kit and 19- or available 20-inch alloy wheels. Unfortunately, the 7 Series-based B7 is the only Alpina we get on this side of the Atlantic, but an oil-drenched performance enthusiast can dream.
Check out 90 years of BMW Motorrad in 90 seconds
Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:59:00 ESTAfter ninety years in business and first-to-market motorcycle innovations like the one-piece 'tunnel' crankcase, hydraulically dampened front forks and full fairings, as well as that trademark boxer engine, BMW Motorrad is celebrating its nonagenarian status with a video: You can follow the ride on BMW motorcycles from 1923 to now in just 90 seconds.
Okay, so there's more than a video - some anniversary-themed bikes and a new retro boxer model celebrating the R 32 "airhead' from 1923 also commemorate the occasion. But you can start with the video, and that's below.
Why BMW doesn't plan to integrate Apple's iOS in the Car
Wed, 12 Jun 2013 15:44:00 ESTWhile watching Apple introduce iOS in the Car during its WWDC keynote on Monday, we wondered how automakers, even the 14 who've already signed up to integrate this new in-car functionality of iOS 7, will feel about having the Cupertino company's mobile operating system supplant their own in-car systems. After all, some OEMs like Ford, General Motors and many luxury automakers have sunk millions of dollars into developing their own advanced infotainment, navigation and communication platforms like MyFord Touch, CUE and older systems like iDrive.
One automaker has now spoken up. A BMW spokeperson was interviewed by someone in the news department of British auto dealer group Arnold Clark and confirmed that the company would not be getting in line to integrate iOS in the Car anytime soon. The reason, as we suspected, is that BMW believes its own products developed over the last decade are both plenty good and already so deeply integrated with other systems of the car that, as told to Arnold Clark, "it would not be that straightforward to start changing all of the architecture of a car as has been implied [by Apple]."
While BMW isn't interested in spending more money to integrate Apple's services and functionality over its own, it has spent a good bit already to integrate iPhone functionality in its cars, including the relatively rare ability to support iPod Out and display Apple's own interface on Mini models with the optional Mini Connected feature, as well as committing to integrate Siri 'Eyes Free' functionality.
