You Can Go 200mph Without Paying Supercar Prices

The average driver doesn’t go over 100mph on a daily, or even weekly, basis. There are very few places in the world where you can go faster than that — well, legally — so there isn’t much need for cars to go any quicker. Many modern vehicles are capable of going 100mph or more, but …

What’s the Difference Between BMW M, M Sport, and M Performance?

One letter helped cement BMW’s reputation for desirable, high-performance vehicles: M. Originally, M badges were reserved for mildly-detuned race cars, like the M1 supercar and E30 M3 sports sedan.
