Brabham Racing BMWBrabgam Racing is taking on the challenge of making the BMW M3 into something bigger and badder. Those who are familiar with racing will recognize this name and know that Brabgam was one of the biggest names in the racing world.

The company was founded by Australian F1 driver Jack Brabham in 1960. The company was strong and successful until 1992 when it went bust from financial liabilities. But before that happened they managed to win the F1 drivers’ title four different times and also the constructor’s crown twice. Brabham’s 1966 title is the only championship that was won by a car using its driver’s name.

BMW LogoExecutives from BMW and Ford are in the middle of talking about how Ford will sell Volvo to the German automaker. The executives have denied any talks so at this time this is still a rumor.

Marc Hassinger – spokesman for BMW – denied that the two companies were talking and having “talks or preliminary talks” about Volvo. However, it is possible that they are covering the talks up until more details have been discussed and are in place. This isn’t the first time the two have gotten together.

BMW Z4New spy shots of the BMW Z4 were released showing the new hardtop convertible out and about and with very little camouflage. It was sporting a very unusual covering that wasn’t able to hide the final shape of the car.

It is obvious that they have taken a different design strategy for the Z4 and we are loving it so far. It is a bit of an evolutionary process that we have not seen BMW take in a long time. They have cleaned up the design and made it similar to the 3-series with a larger twin kidney grille.
