Sure, the BMW Alpina B7 is nice, but if we had the choice, we’d much rather have the new B5 BiTurbo Touring. After all, what’s not to love about an Alpina-tuned station wagon that puts down 507 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque? All that grunt comes courtesy of BMW twin-turbocharged... 

Automotive News Europe is reporting that BMW may be looking into expanding the number of models that the company manufactures here in the States.

More than one mile above sea level, located in the heart of Sequoia National Park, is the General Sherman tree. This nearly three-hundred foot tall Giant Sequoia is considered the largest tree in the world, as based on total volume. More impressive than its mass is its age – scientists believe it... 

Take a good, hard look at this vehicle, which is currently on display at the Paris Motor Show. Seems like it would be the perfect alternative for someone who wants a luxury SUV but doesn’t need a vehicle that large. It also appears to be the perfect car for a person who wants cargo room yet despises...

On the whole, we’re pretty impressed with the 2011 BMW 5 Series, and after conducting our first drive in Portugal, we’re confident that the F10 Fiver will make its way to the head of the class once again. Next week, the car will officially debut for the North American public at the New York...
