Rusnak BMW

If there's one thing that we here at Rusnak BMW love, it's the exhilarating performance behind every Blue and White Shielded model. It does, after all, make for some exciting action when the BMW models that we know and love make for the track. And that's exactly what BMW did recently when they kicked off this year's GRAND-AM season by holding the BMW Performance 200 race at Daytona International Speedway.

BMW knows performance on a wide range of levels. Aside from creating some of the most daring and exquisite vehicles in the world in the new BMW lineup, the Bavarian automaker also ventures into other markets to show industry experts just how true performance is really done. The latest such example? A new partnership that BMW has formed with K2 LTD to create a new set of limited-edition skies.

That's right, BMW is going…

We here at Rusnak BMW have a healthy respect for competing luxury brands. We know that the best way for our favorite Bavarian automaker to evolve into something truly magnificent is for it to compete with other automakers that are looking to create a truly exquisite driving experience.

But while our professional side respects the competition for pushing BMW to deliver more, we'll admit that the more human side of us hates to see…

BMW may be known for its ground-breaking tech, but that doesn't mean that the Bavarian automaker is ready to develop it alone. Rather, they know that there's strength in numbers, and that the best help often comes from rivals. That's why BMW and GM are taking off the gloves in favor of lending each other a helping hand; something that we here at Rusnak BMW fully support.

There aren't a ton…

In case you weren't aware, the BMW 6 Series is evolving, and everyone here at Rusnak BMW is quite excited. After all, the performance-driven BMW 6 Series has long been a main staple of the Bavarian automaker, and now they're planning to make it more accessible than ever before.

How are they planning to do this? If your guess is that they're planning to decrease its performance, you'll be glad to…

To say that the automotive gurus here at Rusnak BMW are a bit nostalgic would be a big understatement. One mention of the original BMW 238 roadster is enough to incite endless conversation about the vehicle's amazing power, refined exterior, and long-standing track record.

Much like the new BMW models that you'll find here at 3645 Auto Mall Drive Thousand Oaks, CA 91362-3611, the BMW 328 roadster was a vehicle that was truly…

And when BMW says limited, they mean limited. The Bavarian automaker recently announced that only 40 of the incredible sounding vehicles will make it from the production line and into dealership lots, one for each year that the "most powerful letter in the word"¹ has graced us with its amazing performance and unique style.

That's something that we here at Markel BMW would like to take a minute to cover. See, the BMW…

BMW may have disconinued production of the ActiveHybrid X6, but we here at Rusnak BMW are always looking to what the future might hold for the Bavarian automaker's lineup. As such, we can't help but bring you a quick look at the upcoming BMW ActiveHybrid 5, which promises to take BMW hybrid models to a whole new level.

BMW is bringing the all new ActiveHybrid 5 to the market in order to compete?

In the 2012 model year, BMW plans to cease production of its dynamic sports activity vehicle, the BMW ActiveHybrid X6. Equipped with a TwinPower turbocharged V8, it boasted 400 horsepower, making rank among the most powerful hybrid models in the world. This is something that we here at Rusnak BMW will remember the ActiveHybrid X6 as long after it's gone, though we can't wait to see what the Bavarian automaker is planning to…

More than likely, you've heard of the U.S. government's recent attempts to enforce higher fuel-economy limits. While this is an overall good thing for the environment and consumers' wallets, it can be hard for some automakers to abide by it, while still appeasing fans who seek a more performance-driven automotive experience. We here at Rusnak BMW know that our favorite German automaker making new efforts to go green with models like the…
