BMW Diesel - D4 Alpina

One of the best diesel car in the world, guest what? its at the base a BMW M4, Alpina takes it to the next level in the D4.


M4 a Legend Reborn

Get behind the wheel of the M4 and prepare for explosive acceleration and razor-sharp handling. Power comes from a 425-hp twin-turbo inline-six, with either a six-speed manual or a seven-speed automatic and rear-wheel drive. The Competition package makes 444 hp, but for the ultimate M4, there’s the GTS with 493 hp.

The GTS is only offered with the automatic and as a coupe; the regular M4 offers a convertible option. All versions have the legendary performance of the M cars that came before it.


Water injection is an effective means of cooling the intake charge of a boosted engine. In the short path from the air filter, through the turbos, over the dual-cam cylinder head, and through the air-to-liquid intercooler, the compressed air can reach temperatures in excess of 212 degrees.

The i8 Discussed....

Is the i8 a real BMW in the soul? Ok we all know why we love BMW's, it's not just a matter of having extraordinary engine but over and above all the overall experience driving experience, from the comfort to the handling interior refinement to name a few but how about the i8? I have no idea it seems pretty much to me something exceptionally different, I will soon get a test drive at the county dealership and shall revert with my finding, however if anyone has a true vivid experience, feel free to comment or contact.

e46 CSL vs M235i

Head to head e46 CSL and M235i


Came across this on youtube and to my opinion the CSL has got the lead, in terms of chassis balance and road feedback, I do not feel any true driver would compromise on the road feedback, however something not mention on this video review is that in term of consumption and emission its way different.
