The new BMW is 100 horsepower short of an M5

BMW has announced an M Performance 5-series, coming to our shores as a 2018 model. The M550i xDrive should satisfy those customers who fancy themselves a sports car enthusiast, but don't want all that pesky sports car power.

The M Performance cars are a bit more tossable than their standard offerings, but keep the power a bit lower so you can keep speeding tickets at bay. While the M5 sedan has 560 horses under the hood, the M550i will get a slightly more practical 456 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque.

 

Smile! Man tries to rob store that sells surveillance cameras

If you were to compile a list of places it might be unwise to burglarize, what would be on it?

Police stations, surely. The White House, too. How about stores that sell surveillance cameras?

I ask only because a man had the temerity to walk up to a store called Spy-Spot Investigations and see what he could get away with.
