imaginelifestyles — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 11:06:19 +0000

Mercedes is rolling out the next generation of its Mbrace in-vehicle communications system (cloud-based services), Mbrace2, set to ship out in the new SL Class cars in March.

Mbrace2 will incorporate social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Yelp and Google to enhance the overall driving experience…and to compete with the expanding technology in automobiles! Unlike Ford’s amazing MyTouch, however, Mbrace2 will not feature a touch screen. So…if someone were to hijack your Mercedes or Mercedes rental, could they hijack your Facebook account? This could be huge!

BMW Owner to Sue Over 20mph Zoning—Claims it Causes Damage to the Engine

imaginelifestyles — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 21:26:19 +0000

A displeased BMW owner in Germany is prepared to sue her local city council if they implement plans for a blanket 20 mile per hour speed limit. Sound crazy? Not so fast—Diane Greenwood, 47, claims that her BMW struggles to cope in fourth gear at such low speeds, which would force her to drive around in third gear, which would in turn place undue strain on the engine and emit more pollution.

We certainly wouldn’t want any undue stress on our fabulous BMW rental fleet, and understand her concerns.

A BMW Luxury SUV for $66,000 and Under? BMW Unleashes the X1

imaginelifestyles — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 20:22:56 +0000

BMW is certainly stealing headlines this year, taking over as the leading luxury carmaker in India, and now unveiling a shocker in the form of its most modestly priced luxury SUV ever, the BMW X1. What does this mean for luxury car rivals Mercedes-Benz and Audi in India?

Currently neither Mercedes nor Audi have a presence in the lower-priced luxury vehicle segment, which only serves to give BMW an added edge to their lead in the India market, if not consolidate it. BMW's India expansion has been a smashing success.

If you are in the mood for an upscale escape, but are tiring of the same 5-star hotels and luxury travel destinations, you may be interested to know that there is hope in the form of an underwater restaurant lounge! Anantara Kihavah is located in the Maldives, an island nation about 435 clicks south of Sri Lanka.

This is similar to the Top 5 Submerged Hotels we covered last December, offering up underwater adventure for the not so faint of heart.
