We all can fight all day long if its Bimmer or Beamer, but what are your regional nicknames?

For example in the Balkans we call them Bembara or Benjo.

Bembara basically means Baby BMW.

    I may have heard bimmer once, 30 years ago. On TV.

    It’s always just been BMW.

    Personally, I just name drop the series or chassis code. Rare that ever mention the brand.

    If some weirdo Audi person has no idea what I’m on about…they’re free to look it up.

      You drop the chassis code and just hope people know what you’re talking about? Imagine trying this in a workplace environment when someone asks you if you own a car…. Or when your extended family asks the same question…. But for sure dude, make it as hard as possible on the non auto enthusiasts, this makes us all look goof
