This one is pretty sick if you ask me. From what I’ve gathered it’s called the “Progressive Activity Sedan” and it’s a BMW Concept that will actually make it into the market by the end of 2009. Off course these spy shots don’t give away all that much info but it’s a start, isn’t it?

The contract to build the PAS has been awarded to BMW’s Dingolfin, one of the world’s most advanced institutions in the world.

We’ve mentioned the BMW M5 before on BMW Talk — but not this awesome (viral) video with Madonna. She shows she can stand a little self-mockery, and she shows she’s got taste in automobiles… Woozaa!

Love the car, love Madonna.

The new 2008 models in the BMW 5 series are not to be missed. Smoother lines, redesigned front and rear bumpers, options like lane departure warning for increased safety, along with smoother insides lines and a sportier feel makes the 5 series a definite winner.

The 5 series comes in either sport wagon or sedan depending on the model. The sports wagon is only available in the 535xi model with a 528I and Xi sedan, a 535i and xi sedan and a 550I sedan to round out the models in this amazing series.

There are some big differences under the hood as well for the 528I models there is a 230 horsepower inline six cylinder with either rear or all wheel drive. The 535 has a twin turbo six cylinder with rear or all wheel drive that delivers a solid 300 horsepower. The 550I gives a V8 rear wheel drive that produces 360 horsepower while the 535xi sports wagon offers all wheel drive and the standard 535 twin turbo six cylinder.

The 5 series has been well received with accolades from J.D. Power and Associates, Auto week and Motor Trend some of the leaders in both the automotive and consumer industry.
