<br />
We've heard a few times that <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/bmw/">BMW</a> is working on a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/01/08/spy-shots-bmw-3-series-gran-turismo-caught-swirling-around/">3 Series Gran Turismo</a>, but a rumor floated at Germany's <em>Auto Motor und Sport</em> claims the GT may instead be an all-new 4 Series. If true, <a href="http://www.bmwblog.com/2011/03/23/rumor-bmw-to-offer-4-series-four-door-coupe/">BMW Blog says</a> that a 4 Series could be offered as a four-door coupe that would help BMW compete with offerings like the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/07/15/officially-official-2010-audi-a5-sportback-revealed-not-coming/">A5 Sportback</a>. The move would also enable BMW to offer a more stylish vehicle that slots well below the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/6+series">6 Series</a> in price while still demanding a premium over the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/3+series">3 Series</a>. And keep in mind that BMW has already green-lit the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/07/26/bmw-reportedly-green-lights-6-series-gran-coupe-concept-for-prod/">6 Series Gran Coupe</a>, which will feature two-door styling and four physical doors when it arrives in 2012.<br />
<br />
Given that <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/audi/">Audi</a> has feverishly expanded its lineup the past few years, we wouldn't blame BMW for countering with a 4 Series, but this is the first we've heard of it, so we'll keep this one squarely in the rumormill category for now.<br />

Video: BMW gives sneak peak into Plant Zero skunkworks

<p>
In the heart of Munich, hidden away from public view by corporate headquarters, is a factory that builds and develops BMW's prototypes, concept cars and test mules. The factory is a small operation, and, according to <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/bmw/">BMW</a>, it was the first of its kind in the auto industry and continues to be one step ahead.<br />
<br />
The plant serves not only as a site to build prototypes and test mules, but as a center to develop manufacturing methods for new models, and make sure tooling for upcoming models fit together just so. That purpose is served by one of the coolest parts of the skunkworks: a prototype milled from a solid block of aluminum. The company is mum on what the one-piece prototype represents, but just the fact that it exists is good enough for us.<br />
<br />
The plant's other key function is the rapid development of parts as cars are being tested. If something breaks on a mule or BMW decides it's not up to snuff, Plant Zero can turn around a redesign piece in as little as three days. According to the plant manager, that's possible even with aluminum parts.<br />
<br />

BMW shopping for a new ad agency. Oh, Joy!
 

<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/marketing-advertising/" rel="tag">Marketing/Advertising</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/bmw/" rel="tag">BMW</a></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/07/video-bmw-super-bowl-commercials-champion-diesel-and-america/"><img alt="BMW Joy is youthful campaign ad" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2011/03/bmw-joy-is-youthful.jpg" style="border-style: solid; border-width: 0px; margin: 4px 0px;" /></a><br />
<br />
BMW of North America is beginning a review for its $150 million U.S. ad account, the company said on Monday. The decision comes after a tumultuous six months for the company, having lost its long-time marketing executive, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/26/breaking-jack-pitney-bmw-north-america-marketing-vp-dead-at-4/">Jack Pitney</a>,to a tragic accident last October and then parting with its former agency last Fall.<br />
<br />
BMW is in the midst of an aggressive product onslaught in the next two years as the Munich-based company is trying to grow its business globally, as well as in the States.<br />
<br />
The company had used GSD&M, an Austin, Texas-based ad shop until last November. Since then, it has been getting ad work from Kirshenbaum, Bond Senecal + Partners, NY, which created BMW's <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/07/video-bmw-super-bowl-commercials-champion-diesel-and-america/">Super Bowl ads </a>this year. Kirshenbaum had been the runner-up to GSD&M when BMW last reviewed its ad account in 2005, and had been doing the company's CRM work the last five years as well.<br />
<br />
BMW's ad work has been the subject of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/09/opinion-is-bmw-becoming-too-soft/">much chatter and even controversy </a>in the last year or so as the company played down its long-running "Ultimate Driving Machine" positioning in favor of a "Joy of Driving" idea. The "Joy," positioning is closer to the BMW brand strategy around the world, as the idea translates into most languages. "Ultimate Driving Machine" apparently doesn't translate into most languages.<br />
<br />
BMW sales are holding up in the recession. The company was the number-two luxe brand in 2010, just ahead of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/mercedes-benz/">Mercedes-Benz</a> and just behind <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/lexus/">Lexus</a>. But the company has been spending more on price discounts channeled into lease deals and financing discounts.<br />
<br />
There are a number of ad shops likely to get a look: Kirshenbaum, Bond Senecal to retain it; The Martin Agency, Richmond, Va.; BBDO, NY (Creative chief David Lubars was creative director at Fallon Worldwide when that agency had the business and created BMW Films, among other great work for the carmaker); Crispin Porter + Bogusky, Miami; and Publicis, NY.<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/29/bmw-shopping-for-a-new-ad-agency-oh-joy/">BMW shopping for a new ad agency.

BMW cuts the glare with M3 Matte Edition for China

BMW M3 Matte Edition - Click above for high-res images</div>
<br />
Automakers have all sorts of different ways of celebrating milestone anniversaries. In the case of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/m3">M3</a>, which turns 25 years old this year, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/bmw">BMW</a> opted to roll out a series of special editions for individual markets. Japan, for example, got the Competition Fire Orange Edition. Here in the United States, we got the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/17/bmw-releases-2011-m3-frozen-gray-coupe-for-the-u-s/">Frozen Gray edition</a>. Australia got the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/07/bmw-m3-pure-edition-comes-from-a-land-down-under/">Pure edition</a>, and in China they got the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/15/video-bmw-m3-tiger-edition-the-movie/">Tiger edition</a>. The latter proved so popular that BMW has opted to roll out a second special edition for the People's Republic.<br />
<br />
Called the Matte Edition, its defining feature, as you might have guessed, is the matte black paint job, complimented by black chrome trim, high-gloss 19-inch alloys to contrast with the low-gloss body, red brake calipers and an interior decked out with carbon fiber trim and red stitching. Mechanically, the Matte Edition is exactly the same as a stock M3, but the color scheme is one of the most attractive we've seen yet. Follow the jump for the official press release (translated into English).<br />

As of now, we've seen plenty of photos and footage of the upcoming <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/25/rumormill-2012-bmw-m5-to-get-manual-tranny-in-u-s/">2012 BMW M5</a>, and now the grandaddy of videos has just been released. This time, <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/bmw">BMW</a> has leaked nearly 30 minutes of the M5 undergoing cold weather testing in the Alps. There's plenty of everything here, from nice stills to rolling footage of the upcoming M car bounding through the snow.<br />
<br />
The F10 M5 is rapidly approaching its debut, first at a private <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/bmw/">BMW</a> press conference at the end of this week, then at the <a href="http://autoblog.com/category/shanghai-motor-show">Shanghai Motor Show</a> in mid-April. We already know that the car will have a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 replacing the outgoing car's V10, and Americans will still be able to get a traditional stick shift. We're ready, BMW. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/29/video-30-minutes-of-raw-bmw-m5-footage/#continued">Hop the jump</a> for the video.<br />

Vintage Thunder as chosen by Playboy - Click above for high-res image gallery</div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/playboy"><em>Playboy</em></a> (which we're not ashamed to admit we read for more than the articles) has compiled a list of its favorite classic vehicles. The article, entitled <em>Vintage Thunder</em>, features six vehicles picked to earn a spot in the magazine's fantasy garage.<br />
<br />
Three American and three Europeans make the cut, all of which are beautifully illustrated by Etienne Carignan. The upper end of the price spectrum is claimed by the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/bmw+507">BMW 507</a> (shown above) while the least expensive on the list is the split-window <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/1963+corvette">1963 Chevrolet Corvette</a>. You can read a recap of <em>Vintage Thunder</em> by <a href="http://www.playboy.com/articles/vintage-car-gallery">heading over to <em>Playboy's</em> website</a> (which is safe for work, as long as you don't stray from the article). If you want to read the full piece, be sure to check out the April issue, which is on sale now.<br />
