"bimmer" - Seriously? Just type bmw.

Fine because it's in the name. Even Merc is ok with me.

Mercedes-Benz
Tacoma

Now show me where the bimmer is?

BMW or Bayerische Motoren Werke (Bavarian Motor Works)

Love BMW's by the way. Although, if you're under 30 you have no right having one...

That car is sick.

 

I own a Bimmer and I'm 25.

 

Oh, and I said Bimmer. Bimmer bimmer bimmer.

Don't hate

Oh. I'm supposed to get laid now, right?

 

A little history for the OP. My DD is a BMW, and I have 210k on it. Runs strong, well build.

Bimmer vs Beemer Enthusiasts vs others Definitions:
Bimmer - proper accepted slang for BMW cars. Most people don't know this.
Beamer/Beemer - proper accepted slang for BMW motorcycles. You will hear this term used incorrectly by many people.
Bummer - When you get a speeding ticket.
Bitter - Another German car. Very rare; hand built. So just why is a BMW car called a 'bimmer' not a 'beemer' or 'beamer'?
The answer in part lies in knowing some BMW history and what came first.
All real BMW enthusiasts know that BMW got a big start on two wheels, what many call the real BMWs.
In those days, BMW motorcycles were quite active in racing, and one of their competitors at the track was often the BSA bikes.
Well as things would have it, a track slang developed, and the BMWs were usually referred to as 'beemers' and the BSAs were referred to as 'beesers'.
So, of course for any true enthusiast, there is no way that a BMW car could be called a 'beemer', so they were called 'bimmers'.
Unfortunately, in the US and Canada, and perhaps other countries, there was a time (kind of still is) where for various reasons, a BMW owner was considered an upwardly mobile person, and of course due to the fun in driving their BMWs most all of them had big grins on their faces.
Hence it is little surprise that the non enthusiast types out there incorrectly labeled BMW cars and their owners as 'beamers' or 'beemers'.

 

Agreed, if I had $75k I would buy one.

 

Yeah but you're martie, the exception to every rule.

 

this thread sucks.

 

what about beemster?

 

My 18 year old friend drives me to school every day in his BMW

 

Only $60k, two of my buddies just got em. One in black and one in white.



BTW, BMW first started making airplane engines, not motorcycles.

 

seriously.... are you losing sleep over this?

 

Love the cars.. Can not stand most the arrogant assholes that drive them.

 

Excuse us!!!!

 

HAHA! i like how there is a pi symbol right after 3. haha

 

I've worked on a few BMWs and they are not pieces of crap although I do think they are overpriced. As far as Euro cars go, IMO BMW is the best as far as quality and engineering and they are a blast to drive, very precise handling. Most other Euro cars we won't touch with a 10 foot pole.
