	ITV Motoring - BMW 6-Series
		BMW doesn’t pretend that for a long journey this is anything other than a two-plus-two for a pair of adults and a pair of children (rear legroom and headroom both being limiting factors), although I do quibble with its suggestion that adults might find the rear seats reasonable for a short trip.
		This is another BMW with a strong standard specification and the capability of being loaded to the limit of the buyer’s wallet with high-tech options.
		BMW says this is a technology transfer from the Williams-BMW Formula 1 team, and shouldn’t interfere with the 645 driver’s view of the road ahead.

		With the new 7’s interior BMW sought to reinvent how cars are controlled, with the transmission controlled by a dainty electronic column shifter and dozens of detailed climate control and sound system functions managed through an eight-way iDrive knob in conjuction with a flat panel display.
		BMWs solution with the new 5 is to incorporate a planetary gearset in the steering column and through it vary the steering ratio based on vehicle speed.
		With the 5 interior trim choices are limited to “titanium,” a traditional brown glossy wooed, and a dark gray stained glossy maple.

	Inside Line: BMW 5 Series -
		BMW finally brought the 5 Series to America for the 1975 model year when the 3.0Si's SOHC, 3.0-liter, straight six was installed to produce the 530i.
		All 5 Series got revised front fascias for 1995, and the 540i was now available matched to a six-speed manual transmission and a lowered, Motorsport-tuned suspension with 17-inch wheels and tires.
		The basic lineup of the new 5 Series is unchanged from before, though the wagons won't be along until the 2005 model year.

	BMW World - BMW M5 Parts
		Visually, the BMW Concept M5 stands apart from its ‘standard’ 5 Series model by the addition of modified front and rear air dams -- similar in appearance to the E46 BMW M3 -- side sills, side air vents and four exhaust tailpipes.
		BMW's 5 Series 10-cylinder M5 is the newest member of the 500hp club, featuring a road-going version of the BMW-Williams F1 Grand Prix power unit.
		The BMW Concept M5 is based on the 5 Series sedan launched in 2003.

	BMW 5 series
		With the new 5 Series announced yesterday, BMW is stretching this philosophy to bring a replacement design to market more advanced and less traditional than even the E36 3 series was in 1990.
		Moving down the car, the 5 Series has no classic BMW body side grove (a feature that Audi seems keen to pick up – witness the new A3 and Nuvolari concept) to give a cleaner form.
		At the rear of the car, design features introduced on the 7 Series are evident, but the 5 Series introduces new variations on this.

	BMW 3-Series
		Where BMW used to rave of 10 airbags in some models, there are now a more manageable six airbags in the latest 3-Series - two in the front, two in the sides of the front seats and curtains down the length of each side to help meet new US side-impact regulations.
		BMW has spent years - 30, to be precise - building the 3-Series up to be the sports sedan of choice.
		Pre-empting the stretch in dimensions is data suggesting that average human height increases by 1 mm each year, meaning we are, on average, 7 mm taller than when BMW unveiled the outgoing model.

	Inside Line: BMW 3 Series -
		With a chopped tail and the semi-trailing arm rear suspension from the E30 aboard, the 318ti was intended to extend the 3 Series appeal downmarket and attract entry-level buyers.
		Dropped into a modified 3 Series two-door body shell (the flared fenders, more steeply raked rear window and higher trunk lid meant only the hood was left untouched from more plebian 3s), the Bosch fuel-injected "M Power" four was rated at 192 horsepower at a wailing 6,750 rpm when it finally got to North America.
		Structurally, the body shell was, BMW claimed, 70 percent stiffer than the E36 and the extended wheelbase allowed the engine to be moved further back in the chassis to again achieve a 50/50 weight distribution.

	BMW 8-Series
		But just to prove that newer is not necessarily better, BMW failed to capture anything like the same level of public acceptance when its all-new spiritual successor for the 6-Series was released in the early 1990s.
		BMW heard the message loud and clear by 1993 when it launched the V8-powered 840Ci, which sold alongside the V12 version (which became known as the 850Ci) until 1996 when the V12 was unceremoniously dumped.
		The only problem is that a late-model BMW 635i Coupe with its classic, high-stepping in-line six-cylinder engine and manual gearbox, is a nicer thing to drive and is also held in higher esteem by enthusiasts.

	hotbimmer - BMW Articles : The New BMW 1 Series
		With its unique concept, the BMW 1 Series is intended to target customers who have always appreciated the practical aspects of previously available compact vehicles but have, until now, searched in vain for an automobile that takes into consideration their increased demands in terms of driving pleasure and individuality.
		The BMW 1 Series is manufactured at the ultra-modern Regensburg plant, utilizing production facilities which provide some of the highest possible levels of flexibility and model diversity in the automotive industry, but which at the same time offer the best possible standard of present-day workplace ergonomics.

	BMW 1 Series Draws Closer
		BMW says the introduction of the 1 Series was part of the group's strategy to expand its market segments and not rely solely on its long-established 3, 5 and 7 series models.
		BMW is set to make owning one of its cars a little easier with the launch of the new 1 Series, which will replace the 3 Series as its entry-level car next year.
		Panke said the rear-wheel-drive 1 Series-to be introduced in the European market in the third quarter of next year-would bring in a different group of customers to BMW.

	BMW 1 Series - In Depth - GermanCarFans.com
		The BMW 1 Series is a good example of what is feasible to deal with the trade-off between weight- and space-saving compounds, on the one hand, and the use varietally pure material for better recyclability on the other.
		The BMW 1 Series was designed with those drivers in mind who on the one hand opt for an agile, functional car, but on the other do not wish to do without sporty motoring characteristics and perfection right down to the smallest detail.
		The BMW 1 Series comes as standard with two-stage activating airbags for the driver and front-seat passenger, side airbags sited in the side sections of the front seats as well as additional side head airbags which are accommodated in the roof lining.

	BMW 1 Series - First Sight
		Unlike the 7, 6 and 5 Series cars, the 1 Series does not have indicator lamps shrouding the top of its headlamps, or a bonnet surface that extends over the top of them as previous BMW designs had, which is the reason the car has a slightly startled, wide-eyed appearance.
		With a length of 4230mm, width 1750mm and height 1430mm, it is marginally wider and taller than the current E46 3 series, but 248mm shorter (than the 5 door Touring).
		BMW are to produce approximately 150,000 1 Series per year (now not to be sold in North America), less than half the number of the 3 series sold in Europe and a little more than Audi typically sells of the A3 in Europe.

	BMW 7 Series Redesign In Depth
