While the BMW lineup does offer a stunning collection of available options to drivers in Anchorage, none of them are quite like this newest kid to join the family.

Released this week at the 2016 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the new BMW M2 may take design cues from its past siblings--like the 1 Series M coupe and the more recent BMW M 235i--but it brings a whole personality that is distinctly its own. The curving and windswept body work invoke images of an aggressive sea breeze. But the engine roar reminds you that this thing is all…

There are so many great idioms for the number two: two peas in a pod, two of a kind, it takes two to tango, and two shakes of a lamb's tail, but here at BMW of Anchorage we would like to see one make the list. Wouldn't it be nice to hear someone say "Two BMW models are better than one"? If it's true, shouldn't people start using that phrase? It definitely is true of any new BMW model, but especially the BMW M Series because when you have two of them side by side, the…

If you can, think back to when the BMW X5 first hit the scene.  The year was 1999.  At that time, the notion of a "luxury SUV" was about as foreign as the BMW brand itself!  Flash forward nearly two decades later, and the X5 is still kicking.  It's a testament to not only its popularity, but to its durability, as well.  Say hello to the 2015 iteration of the lineup legend right here…

"More" is the theme to the all-new BMW 1 Series released by the brand now 10 years after its debut. We get more of everything- more design, more room, more luxury, more value- and more power without sacrificing efficiency. It's the best of all worlds behind the wheel. Take a look.

Let's break down what we're getting "more" of through the three main categories: exterior design, interior design, and engine options.

• Exterior…

The newest BMI i3 starred alongside former Today Show cohosts Katie Couric and Bryant Gumbel in one of the more amusing commercials that aired during yesterday's Super Bowl.

The cohosts found themselves questioning the level of technology in the all-electric i3 in the same way they pondered the Internet and the concept of email back in 1994. Take a look:

The BMW i3's electric engine, much to Gumbel's confusion, is in fact…

Everyone's busy. That's why routine auto maintenance can often be a chore to schedule. We all go an extra thousand miles before changing our oil, or cruise just a little too long without rotating our tires. As we kick off a New Year, why not take the hassle out of routine maintenance by pre-scheduling all your car's routine maintenance needs with BMW of Anchorage. Our expert parts and service professionals can undertake…

Even a cursory glance at some of our previous blog posts will rapidly reveal that we at BMW of Anchorage are quite smitten by our spanking-new, sporty stunner, the 2015 BMW M4. Yet, it seems we're not alone in that opinion.  The industry experts at AutoGuide.com recently submitted their review for the M4, and while their glowing remarks don't generally come as a surprise, they certainly made us blush a bit.  Take…

Lately, our beloved Bavarian brand seems to be moving in several different directions at once.  They've conjured curious crossovers within the very niche "Sport Activity Vehicle" segment and even unveiled an all-new, EV division, with the i-Series.  Yet, for us at BMW of Anchorage, there's really no substitute for a slick and sporty, two-door coupe like the 2015 BMW 228i.  In our opinion, it wholly epitomizes what BMW has done as a brand…

Back in October BMW made a scene at the Paris Motor Show where they brought several of their most beautiful models, including the 2 Series convertible and the BMW X6.

Not one to shy about from the motor show circuit, BMW wanted to show off an edgier, more aggressive side at the current SEMA event, which is why they teamed up with the American tuning company Vorsteiner to let them take a BMW M4 and mold it to their liking.

The M4 is a great vehicle on its own, but Vorsteiner wanted to see the powerful model have an even…

At BMW of Anchorage we have a great selection of luxurious and powerful new BMW models. Regardless of whether you're looking for a sedan or larger vehicle, you'll find the right one that fits your lifestyle needs and image.

While the 3 Series is the most popular offering for the Bavarian brand we cannot discount the popularity of the larger and more powerful BMW 5 Series sedans, like the 2015 BMW 535i xDrive.

This executive lineup is no rookie on the luxury circuit. In fact, it's been available since the '72 model year and we love this…
