The German Car Magazine AutoBild had reported a newer video on the BMW 1 Series, heavily camouflaged. The car shown is the European hatch back version of the 1 Series but allows still to see some new style elements on the front of the “ultimate Driving Experience”. Enjoy, this VJ (a.k.a.

Pick-A-Boo The all-new BMW 2011 5 Series revealed (pictures)

The hide and seek has finally ended. On Monday evening BMW revealed the totally new re-designed BMW 5 Series in Germany.
Below you will see the first pics on this fantastic vehicle. Rumors are telling that this luxury sport sedan will get an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The BMW 5 Series will also have a larger occupant cell, especially the rear seat passengers will feel more room. The official start to get one of this now 6th Generation 5 Series will be March 2010 – but only for Europeans at this time. Sit on tight America.

With the 2011 BMW 5 Series, the Bavarians will be back leading the pack
Also when only a rendering, I am pretty much confident that this will be the new 2011 BMW 5 Series. Please see below 2 photos (from the German Car Magazine AutoBild). I further attached 2 more version of the PAS models, BMW would like to roll out and gain market share in the 4-door Sports Coupe market. Enjoy the pictures…this is VJ (a.k.a.

I checked the new BMW 5 Series GT – at the Seattle Autoshow 2010
Well, finally I could take a closer look (and seat) on the upcoming GT Version of BMW’s most successful Sport Sedan – the BMW 5 Series. It appeared to me the visitors of the Seattle Auto Show 2010 did not exactly get BMW’s new concept (PAS), and quite a bit critique could be heard.

Not a lot people got into the car and tested it out (as long as I was around there at the BMW booth). Myself liked it a lot. A fantastic concept or now reality, which will possible eliminate the sports-wagon. BMW is further planning the concept of the GT in a 3 Series.
Below a few more Concept models from Cadillac, Lincoln and the Corvette Stingray during the Seattle Auto Show. Enjoy the pictures.

Three – Two – One – Zero…Ignition! What is BMW planning?

The BMW 0-Series will challenge the VW Golf and Audi A3The possible 2012 VW Golf 7 - HybridAudi A3 RS will be planned by 2012 (rendering)
Well is it now coming or not? The family on BMW’s is growing year by year. After announcing the missing No. 2 in BMW’s Model pallette (how about a BMW 4-Series? No…just kidding!), which will most likely be on the road as the BMW Z2 Roadster, rumors are now around that the BMW Zero will make its debut in 2012.
It looks to me like the competitor of a Volkswagen Golf and the Audi A3, and could be possible offered in the $25,000 range – in case you find the 1-series still to pricey.
Do you think BMW will come up with a juiced up M-version for the 0-Series? Let’s talk about it…this is VJ (a.k.a. Volker Jaeckel), the Guy passionate about cars.
MINI Cooper + Artists + Switzerland = Wash Me
Give an Artist a bucket of paint, brushes, sprayers and God knows what else and an order to get creative on the MINI Cooper – and you’ll get what you have asked for. Below are some crazy designs several Switzerland Artists are displaying in a new book, which you actually can check out online at washme.ch. When you would like to have the documentation in print, just visit the WashMe website. As I could see was there an order button. Enjoy the pictures…this VJ (a.k.a.
