When it was introduced at the Paris Auto Show in 1978 the BMW M1 was the first mid-engine vehicle BMW had ever built. 33 years later, the low production M1 is the only mid-engine vehicle the company has ever built. One of the rare M1s is currently listed on Ebay, but the entry price to malaise era Bavarian super car ownership is not for the faint of heart or the shallow of pockets. More »

The BMW M3 GTS is the ultimate street-legal M3, offering up a 450-hp 4.4-liter V8 and every bit of M-goodness in the shop. Now Car's snagged some photos of the M3 Saloon Concept, which might bring the same oomph to the sedan, but probably won't. More »

Spotted at the BMW Museum, these five cars span a good portion of the company's race history. While it's easy to see a family resemblance, every car has its own unique features. We'll take one of each. (Photo Credit: Motoyen) More »

Denislav Shishev's an 18-year-old Bulgarian who probably does more before breakfast that you do all week. In 2009 he took a wrecked BMW M Coupe and put in a 530-hp BMW V10. Now he races it professionally. More »

BMW's M-anaging director Dr. Kay Segler has confirmed the mysterious 1-Series testers we've seeing are indeed testers for a new M-division product. But, it won't wear the M1 moniker. No matter — lighter and faster, please. [Auto-News.de (translated) via Pistonheads] More »

A while back, Wert noted that underbody plastics serve a glorious and wonderful purpose. We found an example of this sort of thing in L.A., and it just happens to look awesome. Five bucks says you can't guess the car. More »

Here's a bit of mystery for you, the sporty motormen at the M3Post forum captured an image of what appears to be an E93 M3 convertible. But this ain't your mama's as-of-yet-unreleased M3. This one comes complete with 21" AC Schnitzer wheels and the license plate is from Heinsberg and the shots are from Aachen, where AC Schnitzer is based. But this isn't just a regular 3-series convertible mistaken for an M3, this is definitely an M. More »

Or would that be MX5? Oh wait, that's a tiny little rear-wheel drive convertible from Japan. This is a big AWD luxury SUV from Bavaria. First Porsche "diluted" their brand by rolling out the Cayenne (though in Turbo guise, it's a hell of a truck) and for a while at least, they sold the hell out of them. This didn't go unnoticed by die volks at BMW. It looks as if Motor Authority has snagged some spy shots of what very well might be the Roundel's response, an M version of the X5. Note the dual-pipes. Engine speculation is rampant, but the uber truck could come complete with the screaming F1-derived 5.0-liter V10 out of the M5, or it could have a new twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 good for a rumored 430 horses. Sounds fun, but would an X5 M be a dilution of the M brand? [motorauthority.com] More »
