The Ultimate Track Day: BMW M5, M8, M340i, Z4 M40i, X4 M and MINI JCW At the 2019 BMW Test Fest – an event hosted by BMW USA – we got the chance to drive some of the latest and greatest BMWs. Some of the driving included a Track Day where we were fortunate to race the BMW M5, M8, M340i, Z4 M40i, X4 M and MINI JCW. The video below shows some of the footage captured at the event, including exhaust and engine sounds, some slides and lots of fun. Some of our reviews went live already, like the BMW M8 Competition Coupe and the M235i Gran Coupe. But we have a few more stories in the pipeline.

Maybe BMW Shouldn’t be Afraid of the Tesla Model 3 After All?

Maybe BMW Shouldn’t be Afraid of the Tesla Model 3 After All?

Auto and Cars
Maybe BMW Shouldn’t be Afraid of the Tesla Model 3 After All? Just today, we reported on a Bloomberg piece claiming that BMW was the most vulnerable brand to Tesla’s current rise in customer popularity. To be honest, there seemed to be real concern for BMW, as it’s been losing 3 Series sales quite a bit in the past couple of years, as Tesla Model 3 sales have been rising. It also seemed as if BMW is the brand most customers are leaving to switch to a Tesla. However, this new piece from Business Insider actually argues the contrary. According to BI, BMW has nothing to fear from Silicon Valley. Sure, Tesla Model 3 sales are up but there are a myriad of reasons why that means almost nothing for BMW. For starters, Model 3 sales aren’t really eating into 3 Series sales for the simple fact th...

Auction: 1958 BMW 507 Could Fetch 2 Million Euros at RM Sotheby’s There were only 252 units over built, so that makes them some of the most special cars in the world. The classic cars in questions are the BMW 507 Roadsters which are the darling of the auction world. Earlier this year, a 1958 BMW 507 Roadster sold for $2.175 million at the RM Sotheby’s in Arizona. Next February, another 1958 BMW 507 goes up for auctioning at the RM Sotheby’s in Paris. This time, the car is expected to fetch between €1.7 million and €2 million (US$1.9 million and US$2.2 million). The auction house will offer a selection of 21 iconic and desirable motor cars, dubbed The Poster Car Collection as they were wall posters for car enthusiasts.

Tesla Model 3 Owners Love Their Cars — Should BMW Be Worried?

Tesla Model 3 Owners Love Their Cars — Should BMW Be Worried?

Auto and Cars
Tesla Model 3 Owners Love Their Cars — Should BMW Be Worried? One of the most controversial and important cars of our time is the Tesla Model 3. While its ambition was admirable; offering customers a way to get into a premium electric sedan for $30,000; the execution didn’t quite stack up. Though, that’s not so much a fault with the car as much as it is a fault with Tesla’s owner’s hubris. Still, the Model 3 is a great car and one that is hugely important to the industry. So what is it actually like to own? Bloomberg recently surveyed 5,000 owners to find out. As it turns out, Tesla Model 3 owners love their cars. So much so, in fact, that they’re not only willing to buy another Tesla but that they’re unwilling to go back to whichever brand they came from. Not only that but the brand ow...

The BMW X3 M Competition is seriously fast — Car and Driver Test

Auto and Cars
The BMW X3 M Competition is seriously fast — Car and Driver Test As we’ve already come to learn, the BMW X3 M Competition is very, very fast. Thanks to its 3.0 liter turbocharged straight-six, the X3 M Competition makes 503 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque. That puts it in line with cars like the Mercedes-AMG GLC63 S and the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio. According to BMW, it can get from 0-60 mph in 4.0 seconds. However, according to Car and Driver, it’s even quicker still and, more impressively, fast even when moving laterally. In C&D’s new instrumented testing, the BMW X3 M Competition rocketed from 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds. That’s seriously fast and almost a full second faster than BMW claims. So that makes it among the fastest SUVs on the market, which is very impressive. Even more imp...
