Unfortunately this BMW X6 M Video is not in English (and google does not yet have a video translate option yet), but after Matthias Malmedie comically eats his Wendy’s combo (which is staying warm on the BMW X6 M engine cover) he gets in and gets his German jollies by ripping up the track in the new BMW X6 M.

Here is the Lambo Monterey Blue BMW 840ci which was seen in the Fast & Furious 4 movie. This was one of many sweet wide body modified BMW’s I saw while at BimmerFest 2009 this year in sunny Santa Barbara, California. The most striking feature of the car is the massive custom made all metal 4″ wide body rear extension!

Just a week after the BMW X6 M made its debut, HARTGE steals the show with their tuned version of the BMW X6. Unlike the X6M which has a highly sophisticated Twin-Turbo V-8 petrol engine, the HARTGE X6 is based on the BMW X6 Xdrive35d and you guessed it right, it’s an oil burning diesel under the bonnet. So let’s see how this one stacks up against the competition.

Audi and BMW are at it again! This time though, its not the typical Audi A4 Vs BMW 3 Series racing duel but a similar one on billboards between an Audi A4 and the new BMW M3 Coupe (not exactly apples to apples comparison)! You can check out the cool pictures where BMW’s reply has been posted in close proximity to all Audi hoardings. The battle is taking place in the luxury car battleground of California.

BMW has been going off-beat with its model range. We first had the X6, then the 5 series GT to be followed up by the 3 series GT and these two – The BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M.

While the M Series brand is under criticism for these 2 new models during concepts and market testing, they have been both equally well received at the New York Auto Show. To ensure BMW M DNA in every model, BMW has done the unthinkable – They have made M versions of their X5 SUV and X6 SAC. These two models are going after the successful Porsche Cayenne Turbo and Mercedes Benz ML63 AMG.

BMW’s M (Motorsport) division has finally entered into the world of high performance SUV’s. Prices in USA are expected to be in the range of $90,000.
