A lot of BMW models are receiving upgrades these days, with the recently upgrade given by Hamman to the 2014 model BMW X5.

The fresh BMW X5 has been let itself in the faith of the aftermarket specialist Hamman, to receive some great upgrades, like a new front bumper, with the fog lights and the LED daytime running lights being put all together.

More than that, the exterior of the 2014 BMW X5 also received a fiberglass front lip, side skirts, a roof mounter spoiler from two pieces, alloy wheels in different colors and much more.

Apart from a carbon or a chrome quad exhaust system, the BMW X5 also comes inside with some aluminum pedals and foot rest, customized floor mats and other tech tweaks.

Under the hood, there are also upgrades taken to the engine lineup. For instance, the sDrive25d and the xDrive25d versions develop 251 horses and 502 Nm of torque, from a previous 218 HP and 450 Nm of torque.

On the other hand, the 2014 BMW X5 xDrive30d has 295 horses and a massive 605 Nm of torque, from the previous 258 horses and 560 Nm of torque.

The other versions xDrive35, the xDrive40d, the xDrive50i and the top of the line M50d also received significant upgrades in terms of power and performance.

You can’t not give credit to BMW for coming up with such well rounded machines but sometimes you have to also appreciate the passion the brand’s fans demonstrate once they get those cars.

A great example of what I’m on about can be found in a recent post by one of the members of the f30post forums. He’s not only handy with the ideas, he also knows his way round a camera.

His F30 3 Series received a special M Sport body kit makeover alongside some snazzy big alloy wheels sized at 20 inches.

The M Sport package obviously sharpens up the looks and a silver painted BMW couldn’t possibly go wrong. So what’s the deal with the wheels.

They do look familiar, but there’s just now way the F30 comes which such alloys, they’re not even in the options bin.

Thankfully, if you have some imagination, it’s not such a problematic idea. The owner got his set from an even more impressive BMW model.

It’s the style 373M option you can find the 650i M Sport. In keeping with the GT mantra, the tires are wider and provide more grip as they are now 245/35 at the front and 275/30 at the rear.

The owner is pretty pleased with the result and such a car does corner flatter, is more encouraging through the bends but there is a downside.

Fuel economy levels are bound to drop (even though this is the 328i version of the F30) and in some cases the comfort could be compromised.

This car has quite a long and important name, but then again it is quite a car. Or is it?

BMW have decided that it’s about time a limited edition was created to celebrate past successes at the infamous Mille Miglia race.

The celebratory limited edition will take the form of the BMW Z4 sDrive35is Mille Miglia and the reason why it’s coming out is that people should remember a certain race back in 1940 when a BMW 328 Kamm Coupe took first, third, fifth and sixth places at the Mille Miglia.

While that race and it’s outcome may have been an important achievement for BMW the Z4 special edition might not hit that same marker of success. Basically, the Z4 sDrive35is Mille Miglia will be a technically normal Z4 sDrive35is to which some interesting touches are added. These come in the form of a M Sport body kit, a set of spangling new 19 inch alloy wheels and a black grill. As far as the interior is concerned you’ll be getting some Alcantara and red stitching teamed with some Mille Miglia badges.

There is a catch to the special edition: only 99 BMW Z4 sDrive35is Mille Miglia will be built and all of them will be sold in Germany.
