The 2016 M2 -- BMW's all-new sports coupe -- is a sneaky little devil. While its pocket-sized proportions seem to suggest one thing, its remarkable road manner says something very different:

Namely, that the M2 isn't messing around. Underestimate this diminutive dynamo and it'll leave you in the dust.

AutoGuide.com Features Editor Sami Haj-Assaad recently learned this firsthand. Thankfully for his sake, though, he was the one creating the dust -- not the one eating it. Take a look:

Equipped with a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, the M2 turns out a tremendous ...

We here at BMW of Des Moines have to hand it to our beloved Bavarian brand: it served up a straight-up stunner of an SUV with its completely redesigned subcompact offering, the 2016 X1.

Wondering what it is that makes this one so very special? Well, if so, pair up with Kelley Blue Book Managing Video Editor Micah Muzio. His assessment of the X1 is as follows:

Boasting an incredible array of terrific, tech-centric amenities, it's clear that this SUV is one smart cookie.

Such features include the iDrive infotainment interface (complemented by a touchpad controller), a 6.5-inch…

A full-size sedan sure to tick most every box on your new car checklist, there's quite clearly a whole lot to love about the all-new 2016 BMW 7 Series.

"Like what?" you ask.

Well, for that answer, we'd like to now turn it over to Autotrader pundit, Jabari Jones. His evaluation of the 7 Series is available in the video below:

There are two distinctive drivetrain options available for the 7 Series. The first, a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder, is standard with the entry-level 740i and is good for a glorious 320 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of…

A midsize luxury SUV wholly unlike most of its contemporaries, the spanking-new 2016 BMW X5 xDrive40e sure is a stunner.

And, apparently, we at BMW of Des Moines aren't the only ones who feel this way.

As it turns out, we can now count Cars.com critic, Kelsey Mays, among the fast-growing list of X5 xDrive40e proponents. Follow along with his video review below to get a closer look:

Coupling a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with a built-in electric motor and battery pack, the X5 xDrive40e is rated at a robust 308 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque…

When was the last time your daily driver gave you a thrill, a genuine jolt to the heart and mind?

If it's been awhile, then allow us at BMW of Des Moines to introduce you to a ride that'll no doubt reinvigorate your day-to-day. It's the 2015 BMW 3 Series, and your first look at it is available right here:

All members of the 3 Series family are outrageously athletic, none more so than the top-of-the-line 335i. Spurred by a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder, this beautiful brute boasts 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. Both manual…

It's a question we at BMW of Des Moines have received quite a bit as of late: "What's your favorite aspect of the 2015 BMW 228i?"  And, admittedly, we have a hard time finding a suitable response.  That's not for a lack of appreciable qualities, either; to the contrary, the sheer volume of appropriate replies makes it challenging to pick just one.  Nonetheless, we think that, in and of itself, makes the…

It's been a good three months now since we had some sales numbers to send your way here at BMW of Des Moines. The last time we checked in, our favorite automaker was breaking records left and right here in the States. And now that September has come and gone, it's time we shifted our focus to the global market.

As proud as we are of all the awards that these new and used cars of ours keep picking up here at BMW of Des Moines, the truth is that they only count for so much if the masses aren't getting behind them. After all, the auto industry is a business, and if you want to succeed in business, you need to sell some product. But lucky for us, we work for BMW.

Earlier this month, we here at BMW of Des Moines told you the story of a bonehead who became a YouTube sensation after driving his poor 2013 BMW M3 into a ditch. It was a perfect example of why we're such strong advocates of safe driving, and if it weren't for his BMW, we're guessing that guy would have had a much harder time getting out of that ditch. Because with BMW Assist available on all of our new and used cars, it's accidents like these that our favorite automaker prepares for.
