  • First BMW i8s delivered to customers

In turns out BMW had nothing to worry about as its laser headlight-equipped i8 has been in production for several months now and the first examples were finally delivered to customers this week.

  • 2015 MINI Cooper 5 Door

    The all-new 2014 MINI Cooper Hardtop just hit the auto show circuit last November at the Los Angeles Auto Show, and recently hit the streets for its first drives by the press. Now, a new five-door model has joined the family, rolling Countryman-like access into a Cooper-sized package. MINI calls the five door a “consistent expansion of the model program,” which “creates new opportunities for the brand’s signature driving fun,” which is a rather dispassionate way of saying things, but gets the point across: this is a slightly larger, five-door hatchback, but...
