WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH MY BMW BLOG???
Hello reader fellowship. I need your help. By today I was happy to see that 80,000 plus readers and/or viewers have enjoyed my little Blog about BMW and upcoming BMW prototypes. Now, here comes my dilemma…I have left the company I have worked for, and I will have less and less need for my Blog focusing on BMW’s. I feel bad and would like to know if you have any suggestion what I should and/or can do with my “baby” the BMW of South Atlanta Weblog. It does not belong to the dealership and is a totally private view blog.
Give me some suggestion please what I should do in your eyes.
Thank you … Volker Jaeckel (a.k.a. VJ)

New renderings for the upcoming BMW 1 Series facelift
The German car magazine AutoZeitung showed today a possible (very authentic) face lift rendering of the new 1 Series. It shows in it’s magazine the European Hatchback version and of course displays similarities of the all new 3 Series and 7 Series. What do you think?
Here is an additional close up picture…

Here we can see a little bit more detail - V-shape on the hood seems to be now common on all new BMW models

Back from Germany (2nd time) and news from BMW and AutoBild
Hello friends, fans and readers. I have to apologize not having posted anything the last 5 days, but I had to go to Germany and say a final ”Good Bye” to my dad, who passed away in the age of 82. God Bless him.
Entering the Flight Gate yesterday morning in Dusseldorf, I was able to catch an issue of the German Auto Magazine AutoBild, which shows (again) the possible new BMW 1 Series Super Sport, which I had already once shown in one of my articles on February 5th this year. Below you’ll see the link to the original cover of the AutoBild. What do you think – will it come true?
Spy Shots of BMW’s 1 Series upcoming facelift in 2011
The German Car Magazine AutoBild showed this weeks 5 photos of a camouflaged and disguised BMW 1 Series (5-door – European Version). The magzine anticipates a “nose job” a la BMW 7 series and the model will have new LED Low Beam Headlights as well as tail-lights, which we see recently from Porsche and Audi. More rumors are coming live that BMW may even plans a 1 Series Sports Wagon. How do we Germans always say “We’ll wait and see”.

Thought that it couldn’t harm to post this YouTube Video about the BMW 1 Series Convertible Crash Test video. I guess a lot of you may think about driving this summer “top-less”.
