Never mind statistics, common sense tells you that most people like to sleep in on Sunday morning. Which is exactly why, to achieve the best results with the 414-horsepower 2008 BMW M3's V8, you should not.
Hailed as the reincarnation of BMWs highly vaunted 2002, the 1-Series is the most eagerly anticipated new car from BMW in quite some time.
There's no denying it; sports cars have gone all high-tech on us. Open the door, slip inside, and you're greeted by electronic aids, navigation systems, head-up displays and paddle shifters on the steering wheel. Heck, even Ferraris and Porsches come without clutch pedals these days. Have the computers taken over? Is the sports car of the future really going to be more like driving a PlayStatio
BMW has been in the business of building serious automotive athletes for so long that it's easy to forget that this is arguably the car that started it all for the German manufacturer.

The 2006 BMW M5 defines an entirely new paradigm. It’s not rare for a car to be fast, comfortable and handsome. But to achieve true greatness, a car needs to perform exceptionally well in all of those areas and still offer more. And on that score, the new BMW M5 delivers - huge.
BMW's iconic compact sports sedan has been completely redesigned for 2006, and many conservative enthusiasts breathed a sigh of relief when the car bowed with much less outré sheetmetal than its stablemates, the 7-Series and Z4.
