Welcome to the newest version of BMW Heaven (aka bmhvn).
After a long period of being absent, bmhvn is fully operating again, and I am
proud to present the newest version!
I've worked since October last year on all of this in my spare time, and finally
it's ready to go online!
The site is now placed on a new server, which should be giving no problems anymore
concerning downtime.
The site now features latest
news (more to be added), combined with a gallery
for the latest pictures.
If you have any question, please refer to the forum
(as the forum is completely new, it is still empty, do not be afraid to post).
Next to the usual stuff, BMW Heaven has a database
featuring almost 500 specifications for BMWs built between 1970 and now, and more
information is to come soon.
Enjoy the articles, pictures, forum & all the stuff you can find,
Happy driving,
your favourite(?) webmaster, Ilir Dibrani
Ps. If you have any problems on the site, please contact
me, or post a topic in the forum
Ps2. If you want to mean more for bmhvn, please post that in the forum
as well, I could sure use some help |

BMW M3 e90 - 400HP V8
More information on the 2007 M3 e92 Concept here.
In 2006 BMW will kick it up a notch in the sports coupe market with the much anticipated
next generation E90 M3.
Both Coupe and Cabriolet models are planned with a new addition of a 4 door sedan
not seen since the E36 platform.
The initial idea considered was a 4 door M3 saloon and a 2 door M4 coupe.
But recently BMW has changed their minds and keep the legendary M3 coupe alive.
Internal pressure from the BMW board was too great to kill it off.
Therefore, the M3 coupe, M3 saloon and an M3 cabriolet in addition to an M4
2 door coupe/cabriolet will be developed.
The M3 coupe will feature a 6 Series like glasshouse with the possibility of
a new distinct interior.
The front will sport a new aggressive yet subtle bumper while the rear will
display quad exhausts like the new M5.
Power will come from a new lightweight V8 producing around 400hp and uses the
latest dual-VANOS variable valve timing system.
New engine building technology and lightweight materials mean the engine should
amazingly weigh the same as the outgoing 3.2 liter in-line 6 cylinder from the
current E46 M3 but with considerably more power.

BMW plans to build multipurpose vehicle called X6, sources say
MUNICH, Germany -- BMW will build a multipurpose vehicle
called the X6, supplier sources say.
According to two suppliers, BMW is planning a new multipurpose vehicle called
the X6.
The suppliers say the vehicle would be built at the Spartanburg, South Carolina
BMW plant.
As the next generation X5 will be a larger vehicle already, it's hard to see
why BMW is developing a new X series.
Perhaps the X6 will be more like a minivan, as you can see below.
A spokesman for BMW Manufacturing Corp. in Spartanburg did not confirm the plans. |

New V10 engine wins prestigious prize as BMW gets top honours in five
other categories
BMW has established three new records while scooping top honours in the International
Engine of the Year awards with the 5.0-litre V10 unit from the new M5.
The 507bhp powerplant of the BMW M5 and forthcoming M6 Coupé won the
overall Engine of the Year award for 2005, with a panel of judges from around
the world praising the engine’s flexibility, high revving nature (the
engine can rev to 8,250rpm) and sublime power. The 4,999cc unit was a clear
winner of the overall title with the V10 engine’s stiffest competition
coming from the 3.0-litre twin-turbo diesel engine that powers the BMW 535d.
That engine took second place overall.
BMW is the only manufacturer to have ever been awarded a total of six category
wins in a single year and its overall tally of 26 awards now means the company
has achieved more first place trophies than any other engine manufacturer in the
history of the competition. The 3.2-litre engine from the BMW M3 took top honours
in its category for the fifth time in succession, another record for the Engine
of the Year awards. |
