The XM isn’t lacking in the power department, especially in Label guise. With 738 hp on tap, it’s the most potent car BMW has ever made. However, that didn’t stop dAHLer from tinkering with the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 hybrid setup to extract even more oomph. The Swiss tuner worked its magic to unlock a further 100 hp from the electrified setup, taking the combined output to an immense 838 hp.

BMW brought several M5s at the Goodwood Festival of Speed but it’s this G90 that stood out the most. Hoisted up on a building, the super sedan finished in a striking Speed Yellow paint made a splash at the show held in West Sussex. As you can imagine, we didn’t miss the opportunity to film the look-at-me version with its carbon fiber goodies. No, the roof didn’t cave because of the car’s weight.

When BMW unveiled the M760i The Final V12 in early 2022, it didn’t share any images of the super sedan. The special edition was never officially shown in press shots, but you can now see it here.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.

The new BMW M5 G90 is setting a new benchmark for BMW, not only in terms of power, but also weight. Despite being the most powerful M5 ever made, and the first ever plug-in hybrid model, the G90 M5 is also the heaviest: 5,390 pounds (2,445 kilograms), marking a significant increase from its predecessors. Therefore, this raises a crucial question: Has the M5 sacrificed too much in the name of progress? In this article, we take a look at all the BMW M5 generations and how their weight changed over time.

Billionaire Joe Ricketts has ordered crews to immediately stop construction of his long-planned Sublette County luxury resort, and restore the area to its natural condition. A project that would have made a tourist destination out of the tiny, sleepy Hoback River basin community of Bondurant has been called off because of protective wildlife stipulations that abbreviated the construction season. Ricketts sought an exemption from the seasonal restrictions, which he claimed in a memo obtained by WyoFile would have increased the cost of building the high-end all-inclusive resort by $60 million to $100 million, but his request was denied .

Although this refreshing drink went viral on TikTok last summer, it's been around a lot longer. Yes, you may have noticed, the drink is called lemonade, but it's made with limes. Brazilian lemonade is thought to have originated in Brazil by a street vendor. According to All Recipes, in Brazil, the drink is called limonada Suíça, which translates to Swiss lemonade. The beverage isn't Swiss, but the Swiss company, Nestlé, began selling condensed milk in Brazil in the 1900s, which could be where the drink got its name.

Marketing departments typically devote their attention and budgets to high-end versions of a new car. However, that’s not the case here as the latest BMW commercial for the 2025 1 Series features a lowly 120. It doesn’t even have the M Sport Package, so we’re dealing with one of the cheapest configurations of the “F70.”
