BMW X6 M Press Release

BMW X6 M Press Release 


BMW X6 M Design Edition:


Exclusively sporty additions for the chosen 100.


Munich. BMW M GmbH has launched a new variant of the BMW X6 M in a limited edition of 100 cars. The exclusive BMW X6 M Design Edition boasts particularly sporty and visually striking elements both inside and out. The upgraded interior of the BMW X6 M Design Edition comes with full Merino leather, including a bicolour instrument panel in Black/Mugello Red with Mugello Red contrast stitching. Another beguiling feature fitted exclusively in the BMW X6 M Design Edition is the BMW Individual interior trim in Piano Black with an edition-specific badge.


From the outside, the BMW X6 M Design Edition stands apart with its 21-inch M Performance light-alloy wheels in double-spoke design and carbon elements. The exterior paintwork, meanwhile, can be specified in Alpine White, Sapphire Black or Melbourne Red metallic. It all comes together to create an elegantly sporty blend of colours – in a combination available exclusively in the 100 examples of the BMW X6 M Design Edition that will leave the factory.


BMW X6 M Design Edition – visual upgrades for the exterior and interior


Ever since it was unveiled in 2008, the world’s first Sports Activity Coupe has combined the assured versatility of a BMW X model with the elegantly sporty lines of a coupe. The BMW X6 M Design Edition shines a particularly bright spotlight on the already striking, stand-out flagship status of the high-performance BMW X6 M. With its carefully targeted styling accents, the BMW X6 M Design Edition sharpens the profile of the BMW X6 M as an unmistakeable cult figure in the premium all- wheel-drive segment. All BMW X6 M Design Edition models drive on 21-inch M Performance light-alloy wheels in double-spoke design. The front end is defined by its black BMW kidney grille and black exterior mirror caps. The process of aerodynamic fine-tuning is underlined by the carbon M Performance front splitter and M Performance rear spoiler and the likewise black rear diffuser. And those looking to add further motor sport inspiration to the mix can also choose the optional M Performance decals with stripes in the BMW M colours.


Merino full leather and contrast stitching in Mugello Red.


The classy but sporty theme continues in the interior. The Merino full leather takes in the bicolour Black/Mugello Red instrument panel with Mugello Red contrast stitching. Red leather contrasts also feature on the seats. The BMW Individual interior trim in Piano Black includes a model-specific “1/100” badge, rubber- stamping the exclusivity of the BMW X6 M Design Edition.


Alongside the features already detailed, BMW M GmbH has also put together a range of selected options tailored precisely to the X6 M Design Edition and made them available for the limited-run variant as a fixed package. These include heated front seats, lumbar support, a storage package, sun protection glass, the Head-Up Display with additional M specific display and the HiFi Professional or BMW Individual high-end audio system.


As in the standard version of the BMW X6 M, a 4,395cc BMW M TwinPower Turbo eight-cylinder petrol engine developing 408 kW (555 hp) and peak torque of 680 Nm (502 lb-ft) imbues the BMW X6 M Design Edition with compelling performance. The six-speed M Sport automatic transmission boasts impressively short shift times. The almost uninterrupted flow of momentum enables unbeatable pulling power and thrilling acceleration. And the driver can take over gearshift duties at any time using the selector lever or M shift paddles on the steering wheel. Added to which, two pre-programmed set-up options for the engine and transmission management help the driver to achieve an even more dynamic and/or efficient driving style.


The engine’s power is distributed via the tried-and-trusted xDrive all-wheel-drive system, whose special M specification raises the car’s dynamic capability another notch. In addition, at the touch of a button the driver can also select one of two set- up programs for the BMW X6 M’s 10-millimetre lower adaptive suspension. The speed-sensitive power assistance for the steering has likewise been specially tuned for the BMW X6 M. The high-performance brakes feature four-piston callipers and 395-millimetre discs at the front and single-piston callipers with 385-millimetre discs at the rear. The BMW X6 M is therefore equipped not only to be driven at high speeds but also to tow loads of up to three tonnes in weight.


The BMW X6 M interweaves numerous M specific chassis technologies to optimum effect, ensuring unrivalled dynamics, maximum control and exceptional ride comfort. The flawless distribution of its immense power is handled by BMW xDrive and Dynamic Performance Control – both adapted to M specification. The intelligent all-wheel-drive system BMW xDrive is rear-oriented, enabling extremely sporting driving that extends to the execution of controlled drifts. Dynamic Performance Control assists the car’s handling, allowing it to make even more agile and precise work of corners. The specially tuned Electronic Damper Control (EDC) and Adaptive Drive (body roll minimisation) systems allow powerful braking and acceleration with virtually no body roll, combined with peerless steering precision and directional stability. The dynamic responses, safety characteristics and comfort of the BMW X6 M can be adjusted individually using the EDC buttons on the selector lever.


The flexible abilities of the BMW X6 M as a Sports Activity Coupe for drivers demanding the highest standards of sports performance and elegant luxury are clearly accentuated in the BMW X6 M Design Edition and offered at an attractive package price. Only 100 units of the BMW X6 M Design Edition will roll off the assembly line.

Snapchat 101

What is Snapchat?


It’s the social app that’s currently seeing more than 350m photos shared every day. Snapchat started in September 2011 with no revenue.  To date it has received nearly $94m of funding, and recently turned down a $3b acquisition offer from Facebook who immediately saw the potential.


Snapchat is a Venice Beach, California based mobile app that allows users to send photos and text messages that disappear after 8 to 10 seconds. Co-founded by 23-year-old Evan Spiegel, more than 400 million videos are being sent on Snapchat daily.  Google reportedly attempted to buy out the new kid on the block of social networks, Snapchat, for a reported $4 billion, which was also turned down.  The free app allows users to send photos to other members and control how long the receiver can see them for. These photos last for up to 10 seconds, before they disappear…forever. If you try to take a screenshot, the app will notify the sender.


Snapchat is #12 on the free iOS photo app charts in the U.S. and just scored some mainstream media attention in The New York Times.

 


So, here’s a few things to know about Snapchat.


Snapchat is not intended for children under the age of 13. Minors ages 13-17 should have permission from a parent or legal guardian before using Snapchat.


Only for Teens?  No! Snapchat is not just for teens.  Snapchat users include parents, grandparents and adults of all ages.  Snapchat can be a fun and easy way for families to stay in touch.


Snapchat also provides delivery confirmation for every message sent, letting you know if your message has been delivered and when it has been opened.  So make sure you send the message to the right person!


 


Pressing Send? Take a second to think how your message will make the other person feel? Would you be upset, embarrassed or get in trouble if they show it to someone else? If you feel like you’re taking a risk or doing something that makes you even a little bit uncomfortable — stop what you’re doing and don’t send the message. Snapchat is supposed to be fun, if you’re not having fun or if you’re ruining someone else’s fun, you’re missing the point and you should re-think what you’re doing.


Check out this video of the five types of people on Snapchat…

The #SmackCam phenomenon

The #SmackCam phenomenon


 


Remember the old 90’s Tango advert ‘You’ve Been Tango’d’ when the big orange man came up and smacked a bystander’s face. It now back in the form of Twitter Vine #SmackCam.



SmackCam began as a fun game between MAX Jr., Jerry Purpdrank and their friends. It’s now exploded into Vine’s newest craze.


The idea behind #SmackCam is that you catch a friend or family member by surprise and record yourself smacking them in the face.



SmackCam-ers, as they’ve been dubbed, now use lotion, powder, food and whipped cream on their victim’s face. However, some people have moved on to hit their victims with hard objects such as ironing boards, balls and even bats – which obviously can seriously harm someone.



Not only that, but some people are using #SmackCam as an excuse to hit total strangers or to get revenge on people that have wronged them.  Isn’t that assault?  Some distasteful ones include SmackCam-ers hitting young children and animals.


Word of advice – don’t do #SmackCam to strangers, little kids or animals – you’ve been warned…



So if you want to do #SmackCam the right way remember these simple rules:



  • Don’t do #SmackCam to your parents, guardians or elders (especially if you live under their roof).

  • Don’t do it to strangers because you could be charged with assault.

  • Don’t use heavy objects such as bats or ironing boards.

  • Don’t do it to animals or young children.

  • Don’t use anything flammable (goes without saying).




  • Make sure you do something you won’t mind being done to you.

  • Remember to make sure that your phone is recording so you don’t have to do it again.

  • Only use items that can be washed off and that aren’t painful.

  • Only do it to someone who is a good sport.

  • Make sure you have a clear escape route – you don’t want to get a beat down do you?
