BMW 3-Series Coupe with a... 250Hp Honda S2000 engine!

Ok, I agree a 140Hp 4cylinder 1.8-liter engine doesn’t quite fit the “Ultimate Driving Machine” moto that describes a BMW model. But, to go on and fit a… 250hp 2.0 VTEC Honda S2000 engine on a 318is Coupe, that’s plump crazy and yes, we just love it!

Forget about the screaming Japanese chick in the pink cowboy hat, be patient with the “get to know you” scenes at the start of the video, and get a load of that superb Honda motor screaming aloud inside the bimmers chassis! Just look at that rev needle breaking with ease the 7.000 rpm end point of the bimmers tachometer continuing its course towards the other way! Via: Autoblog.it

New BMW M3 Spy Video

Damn, it’s been a while since we posted something about the E92 M3 hasn’t it...? Seriously though, it’s plump crazy if you think about how many spy pics, renderings, videos and “inside” info concerning the new BMW M3 have been posted on sites, magazines and I don’t know where else over the past year. Moreover, it’s definitely not over yet. And oh yeah, the video, looks like it was taken by a bimmer fan who tried his best to follow a lightly camouflages test model in a stock BMW 328i. Via: M3post

BMW 1-Series 3door – Official Video

Following last night’s 2007 BMW 1-Sereis 5door video, here’s the second and most interesting part of the leaked promotional video featuring the all-new 3door version of the Bavarian compact hatch. The 3door 1-Series shares the same revisions as its facelifted 5door sibling including the minor aesthetic changes and the new engine line-up.

2007 BMW 1-Series Facelift Video

Just as we were ready to call it a day, to our surprise, we discovered a promotional video featuring the facelifted 2007 BMW 1-Series flowing freely on the net. Although we can’t be 100% sure for its authenticity, I’d say it’s original content. I’ve spoken in the past with a couple of close friends who work in BMW and they’ve already informed me (off the record of course), that the facelifted 1-Series will be presented along with its 3-door sibling at the Geneva Show in March.

From what we made of the 1.29 min long video which features the 163Hp 2.0-litre turbodiesel 120d, the Bavarian 5door hatch has received a subtle exterior facelift which includes new front headlamps, revised tail-lamp crystals and a redesigned front bumper with larger air-intake and different fog-lights. We can’t seem to spot any differences in the interior though.

From our information, there’ll be a few changes in the engine department as the current 150 Hp 2.0-litre 4cylinder petrol will be replaced with a new 170Hp 2.0 that debuted on the 320i Cabriolet. We also suspect that the top-notch 130i with the 265 Hp 3.0 straight-six will get the revised 3.0 with an output of 272Hp.

Alpine BMW Sinister 6 Video

Don't say it. I know what you're thinking: Chris Bangel attempted to recreate the Batmobile! Well, luckily for Bimmer fans, not exactly. This is the Alpine BMW Sinister 6. A completely revamped BMW 645i Cabriolet featuring Alpine's latest products like the multi-channel digital processor and the massive 8000w PDX digital amplifiers and of course, a "sinful" body. In addition to its first appearance at the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Vegas this past January, the BMW Sinister 6 was also present at this month's SEMA Show.
