The BMW i3 is making a big impact in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show. We mentioned in our last blog post how the 2015 Green Car of the Year can really hold its own as far as technology goes, and now we have a video to prove it.

At CES, two couples were given the chance to drive the i3 and take the features for a test drive. One couple enjoyed a leisurely…

You couldn't be more proud of your daughter for being as passionate about the environment as she is--so young yet so full of passion.  But you wish the tables were turned for once, that she was proud of you and the actions you are taking to better the environment. That's why this holiday season, you should gift you and your family efficiency: the 2014 BMW i3.

Everything about the BMW i3 is environmental…

Being the newest face in the BMW family places a lot of pressure on a vehicle model, especially when the nameplate features an M at the front. But the 2015 BMW M4 has already started fulfilling its destiny. In its most recent exploit, the M4 helped set the record for the most donuts around a car driving on two wheels in one minute. It is a lengthy, wordy title, but one that will likely stand…

Just when you didn't think the new BMW lineup could get more innovative, our favorite automaker has proved us wrong once again. The latest development allows for full access to Spotify, bringing drivers an endless supply of music that is available with the touch of a button.

That's right readers, all BMW vehicles that have ConnectDrive and the BMW Apps feature will be able to take advantage of this opportunity when their iOS…

When you think of BMW it's all luxury, power, and the open road, but did you know that the Bavarian brand once flirted with the idea of going to the open seas?

Well, at least the open lake water! After World War II the brand took a now rare BMW 507 engine and put it into a hand-crafted and luxurious boat. The vessel, thanks to the engine, was powerful, but it was also sumptuous and beautifully designed.

Despite its appearance, the boat disappeared for many years, until an enthusiast of BMW learned of its history and set out to…

Whenever auto events like the Paris Motor Show roll around, we here at Thompson BMW pay close attention to the news.  At this month's big venue, BMW made sure that they didn’t disappoint by debuting the 2 Series Convertible and the 2015 X6. You can check out both of these models in BMW's highlight video clip that we've shared below!

The 2 Series Convertible will be available in our Doylestown, PA…

While it is certainly true that ever 2015 BMW model is performance-tuned from the ground up, the M Series are the BMW models that are the recipients of their racing experience, racing features and parts. The M Series models are among the ultimate road legal driver's cars, and we have an amazing new video on them here for you today.

The M Series is a comprehensive performance lineup, with coupes, sedans, convertibles, and even…

Gaining the designation of a "classic" car is more than just being an old model, folks. To earn the title of classic, a car must have been defining in some way, amazed audiences with something really special, whether it be the design or a specific feature or technology. When it comes to the 1967 BMW 1600GT, it's all about the amazing design. Of course, being rare doesn't hurt.

With only 1255 units built…

Joining its chameleonic compatriot, the X6, in the rather singular Sport Activity Vehicle segment is the spanking new 2015 BMW X4.  With impressive versatility, power and design, we at Thompson BMW feel the fresh-faced X4 makes a compelling bid for your business.

Available in two trims, it should come as no great surprise that we tend to favor the more athletic, top-tier model, the xDrive35i.  Propelled by a beefy, turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder, this iteration…

In the long history of BMW there have been exciting videos, all thanks to the fun and epic performance that our vehicles bring to the streets.

However, recently a video was released that just might be the greatest of all time, a video that makes us rethink the meaning of words like epic and amazing.
