Video: BMW Motorcycle Breaks Free when Rider Attempts Wheelie


Some kids will never learn that motorcycle wheelies can go bad. This –fortunately humorous- video footage comes to us via South Korea with the protagonist on the BMW motorcycle attempting to pull a wheelie as soon as the light turned green.

It seems though that the Bavarian motorcycle had a different opinion as it threw down the rider and continued by itself for several feet before it came to a falling halt. Video follows after the break.

I Know What You Did Last Corner: BMW Joins the Networked Car/Roadside Brigade


Now that the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions issue seem to subside, automakers are tuning to the latest fad in car technology: “intelligent” driving.

In plain English, it means state-of-the-art infotainment systems than enable cars to “see” ahead and “talk” to each other, warning the driver of possibly dangerous situations. After General Motors, BMW also jumps on the bandwagon of “connected” vehicles and infrastructure.

Politically Incorrect Video Presentation of the New 2012 BMW M5 F10 Sports Sedan


Do you dislike watching powerful rear-wheel drive cars burn rubber, drift around corners and roundabouts and generally be driven in a manner that many would consider politically incorrect?

Then we strongly suggest that you move on and avoid viewing the video presentation of the new 560-horsepower BMW M5 sports saloon from Hungarian TV Show Totalcar and its presenter who could easily be mistaken for Hugh Jackman's long-lost young brother from the x-Men series.

Prototype BMW Navigation System Helps you Find the Nearest Parking Space [with Video]


Self-parking cars are nothing new, since companies like VW and Toyota have already been offering such systems on certain models. However most drivers face a more serious problem in modern cities: actually finding a parking space, preferably as near as possible to their destination.

BMW Singapore Tries New Prank on Unsuspecting Owner of 3-Series [with Video]


April 1st may be a long way off for most of us but not for BMW Singapore, which has rolled out a new episode of its candid-camera-like prank series called "The Switch".

In the first episode we saw BMW's pranksters replacing a young woman's standard 1-Series Coupe with a performance-enhanced twin. Similarly, the second chapter involves a young couple with BMW's inside-person being the young wife of a 3-Series sedan owner.

With the wife's help, BMW's people switched her husband's regular, white-colored saloon with a modified 3-Series featuring an array of BMW Performance Accessories such as an engine kit, numerous aero parts, a sport exhaust system, bucket front seats, chunky double spoke alloy wheels and a sports suspension.

Dude, I Drive a BMW: Sarcastic Video Take on Bimmer Owners


There are [insert brand here] drivers, and then there are [insert the same brand here] drivers. Naturally, we've all heard the stereotypes and jokes about people that own cars sporting the famous badge that looks like a propeller blade set against a blue sky – but which as it turns out, was actually created to represent the colors of the Free State of Bavaria.

A group of young people decided to visualize some of those stereotypes and create a video parody about BMW owners. Some of the sketches work better than others, but overall, we gather that the clip is worth two-and-a-half minutes of your time.

Watch the video after the break and tell us if you think in the comments section.
