Officially unveiled at the BMW Museum in Munich yesterday, if you haven’t seen photos of this incredible automobile you owe it to yourself to check them out on BMWBlog.com. This is sure to be the most talked-about car to come around in a long time. I’m sure it’s no secret that I’m a HUGE BMW fan, and this has me “giddy” (can I use that… read more →
Soon, owners of Dublin Ranch homes may be surprised to see a new Rolls Royce in their neighbor’s driveway. Expected to be introduced in the Geneva Auto Show is a new model from the brand many have come to envy – it’s called the Rolls Royce 200EX. Alright, so it may not fit everyone’s definition of budget conscious, but it’s a pretty fantastic automobile and certainly a forward leap for the design team at Great Britain’s most prestigious automobile brand.… read more →
