Griot's Garage BMW

It’s an odd comparison that to me actually makes more sense than most that I have been writing about lately (ie: BMW 550i/Pontiac G8 GT). Even though the Mini and the BMW are cousins they have a lot of similarities, and probably just as many differences. As I tend to say, beauty is in the […]

New BMW 135i Promo Video

We love Youtube, just because you can find pretty much any BMW video on there, either professionally made or..just an amateur video. This latest BMW 135i promo video is one of the best I have seen in a while. Loved their choice in exterior decor, the amazingly Crimson Red and…the background music.
