Dyno videos are usually worth little more than the fire and sound produced by the car as it revs--variability in conditions, equipment, and setup can make translating the results to general terms difficult or impossible. But a new dyno video of the 2012 BMW 328i raises an interesting possibility...

No stranger to the automotive apps game, BMW today made its latest app available for iOS devices, including the iPhone: the BMW Remote Mobile App, which lets BMW owners access features of their cars remotely through BMW Assist.

It's been merely four days since BMW revealed the new 2012 M6 Convertible and 2013 M6 Coupe, but M5Board has already posted videos showing off the newest models from BMW's M division. The two videos show off both the Coupe and Convertible M6s driving around a track with even a little tail-out...

With BMW's new four-cylinder turbocharged engine progressing steadily through the lineup, the X3's adoption of the small but punchy powerplant is far from unexpected. Nonetheless, it's a welcome addition, as we've come to love it in its other implementations. The 2013 X3 xDrive28i uses the same...

With the new 6-Series Gran Coupe, the revised 6-Series Coupe and Convertible, and now the 2012 M6, BMW's 6-Series range is approaching the model proliferation of the 3-Series. In this case, that's a very good thing. First, lets hit the vitals: power comes from a 7,200-rpm redline, 4.4-liter...

In an effort to continually improve fuel economy, BMW expects to develop three-cylinder turbocharged engines for 3-Series models.

Sources close to BMW report that the German automaker will soon shift its MINI WRC program from Prodrive to X-Raid.

BMW has given the 3-Series its most radical set of changes in many years, and because we—and sport-sedan owners and enthusiasts in general—so often use the 3-Series as a benchmark, maybe even the archetype for sport sedans, it’s time to take note. Which is what we did this past...

These are the first images of the upcoming Alpina B7 facelift, captured during testing in Munich this week. The Alpina B7 is a factory-approved hot version of the 7-Series, approximating a sort of M-tuned version of the big sedan--or the closest we're likely to get. The facelifted version wears...

The title pretty much says it all. A police chase in Connecticut early on Tuesday ended after a BMW X5 crashed into a house, pinning a sleeping resident underneath for nearly an hour. That sleeping resident was 34-year-old Michael Sweat, who later had to be taken to hospital due to second- and...

Now we know: $61,845 including the $895 destination and handling fee. That's about $8,000 more than the Infiniti M Hybrid, which starts at...

Australian tennis star Bernard Tomic was recently involved in a bizarre incident with police near his home in the Gold Coast, on the East Coast of Australia. The 19-year old was driving with his girlfriend yesterday near a busy restaurant district when he was pulled over by local police for...

The 2013 BMW X6 lineup's refresh was made official last night, but the X6 M was notably absent from the remodel.
