I own my car - BMW 520 since 1996 when I bought it used near for nothing. It was a cool deal. Well, my car story will touch this car purely as I got another one. BMW - is my favorite car for all times and
when in 1996 one man was in a hurry as [...]

I am a fan for BMW world and I want show off my beautiful 5series E34 model of 1991, I purchased recently at the used cars market. This is super car of executive class, with rare Gletscherblau Metallic body color and blue interior. I don’t like black cars with tinted windows at all :>$ my [...]

Not long ago I got a my wonderful car - BMW 520 2003 model and here is my car story.
First I want to say that cars are my passion since childhood so I take interest in every detail concerning cars. That’s great. I used to favor various car marques but for 10 year already my [...]

Well, my previous car was BMW E39 523, and E34 even earlier. My wife had BMW 118. Now let me say it briefly – I drive my current car BMW 3 320d for 3 months already, covered 4500 km. So I changed gas engine for diesel, manual transmission for hydro. Impressions: when I was running [...]

Well, let me tell my car story. It is BMW 325 cabrio - small but very fast and cool pretty thing! And after all I don’t really like those spacious long and wide cars - they need too much fuel and space but run rather slowly!
I was happy to obtain 325 Cabrio Ci as BMW, [...]

We started after an accident, here. Thanks to Mitch Conard and Jim Stansfield and Spence at Mesa Performance Parts, we got a lot big and little parts to put it back together.

The paint was done six weeks ago. The Alfa was failing, so we took the BMW out of the body shop, missing some trim and some [...]

I purchased my BMW R69S from a local rider in December of 1997. The bike was in rideable shape and I rode it around the San Francisco Bay Area most every weekend until October of 1998. The few changes made during that time included the replacement of the rusting after market exhaust system with a [...]

You might want to call the new BMW 128i a “baby Beemer” and with good cause. This is the smallest, and most affordable, BMW currently offered. And, in our opinion, one of the best.

BMW goes to great lengths to over engineer its vehicles with techno gadgets most drivers will never understand or use. A perfect [...]

This is a tale of two cars costing $90,000 or so that only a true BMW fan would appreciate.We had the powerful M5 and the luxurious 650i on back-to-back weeks for test drives.
Both are wonderful cars in their own right and BMW is very proud of them.

The M5 is a 500-horsepower beast that is supposed [...]

Hello to everyone!
This has been the greatest resource I have ever seen for what could be a very complicated and expensive vehicle. Thanks to all, and I thought instead of just taking advantage of reading the threads, I should show some respect and introduce myself, my better half, and her car
I met the woman of my [...]

Jim Seiler:
In the mid ’60’s, 1967 I think, I lived near Sacramento, rode a ‘64 R27, and met another guy with the same bike (Hayden, if you should read this, it  would be great to hear from you after all these years at jim(put the at sign here)myakkacityfl.com). He wound up owning both R27’s when [...]

Life will lead you in all sorts of directions if you let it and in my case I sort of slid into bikes while I wasn’t looking. I was just starting work as a low life clerk and there was no way I could get a pass to park my car in the company parking [...]

I took my /2 to Colorado about a month ago.  It ran great.  In the high country it idled down a bit.  But, it ran okay.  Have you ever been to Cripple Creek or Victoria ?  The temperature changes quickly in the high altitude.  I did some back road exploring in the gold mining hills [...]

I first fell in love with the BMW/2 about 1981 or 82.  At the time I occasionally did work on bikes for spending money. A fellow I knew had a 1960 R60 that needed a tuneup.  He wasn’t very mechanically inclined so he asked me to do it.  At first I thought it was an [...]

So I guess it was inevitable that BMW would come out with an M series for it’s truck/cruck. What’s with the X6 anyway. I was talking to the dealer after test driving it. “Who would buy this thing?” It was already to fast for what it was. Now there’s an M version. [...]

In the evening of august 17th I decided that I would try to do a SS1000. I have had this thing in my mind for at least two years but haven’t found any good timing to do it. So suddenly my wife went of together with friends for the night and the kids was staying [...]

The Dusty Butt 1000 was held on October 2, 2004. The event was to cover one thousand miles off road in twenty-four hours on motorcycles. Actual distance was longer due to some paved connecting roads. The event was headquartered and the finish was at the Nkolo Spa in Christiana, South Africa. The route covered a [...]

My step dad had the coolest 2002 Tii. I mean the thing was perfect all the way around, golf yellow with black interior. I remember one day, I was in probably 5th grade at the time and I happened to be performing in a talent show of sorts. Well on the way over to the [...]

I decided in one day, I planned and I rode.
“If I cannot keep going, than I will go until I can - I repeated to myself- but I try. Roads are always there and we are simply the passers-by. If the road permits, I’ll flow away to the distance otherwise I’ll flow to my limits. [...]

LAST CRAZY RIDE FOR SOMETIME
The last 24-hour ride that I had created room for its own sequel, mainly by virtue of its being unsuccessful by just a few kilometers. As soon as I had finished, I knew I would be trying to do it again. Fortunately, there was an opportunity within the month.
This time things [...]

I live in the West, but had always wanted to tour the East on a motorcycle. So a few years back, a couple of buddies and I met up in Boston to do a tour of Maine, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Vermont. The easiest and best way to get the motorcycle to [...]

The CS stood for Coupe Sport. The 2800 CS and subsequent models featured a new front end that would influence BMW design for many years. The style of the C-pillar with the Roundel logos are unique to the CS models. My first CS was a 2800. The biggest problem is rust. It is [...]

I finally bought my 2002 after years of waiting, It is my daily driver and I have many stories about her so far but this one is my favorite and really shows the effect that this car has on people.. I was living in Los Angeles and living in Westwood.
I went to the local drug [...]

It was like any other November morning as I drove to school- Traffic, radio, cold, snowy, running late, and half asleep. I get to the entrance to my school, and it was like seeing an angel. An Alpine White 3 Series sedan is pulling out. As if seeing a BMW leaving the school isn’t odd [...]

We bought our first BMW last year, a 2007 X3 3.0si. It’s a tale of two rides. One is the very enjoyable one that you drive everyday. The 260 horse six is a dream to listen to as it takes us effortlessly around town. The other is the one that just screams down the road [...]

This happened on the night of April 8th. We were all hanging out at a friends house, her name is Jess. We were all there because one of our friends, and one of my closest friends, Scott, was shot and killed in a robbery at Subway 2 days earlier. I wouldn’t have [...]
