Hey peeps here is a link to some pictures from the Bmw-Syndikat's very first car show. It was a success despite the rain on the first night that made a mud pit out of the off asphalt parking area(I was lucky enough to get the asphalt area)...we had a 1/4mile drag racing area, many different vendors and of course since we are in Germany a beer tent! Many of the cars you will see on the link below are what Germans are doing in the BMW tuning scene. No doubt many of you will hate the rice but it started here so dont hate!(it was originally "eurotuning" not "ricing"..the japanese just took it to another level!)

Check out the pictures....does anywhere in the states have BMW shows this big?

Thanks for sharing Marc! That is some deep mud! I wonder how many, if any, car got stuck in the mud? Some of the cars spooks are damn near dragging on the grass. Some are like mud plows. It would suck to get your car cleaned up and then have to drive in that mess. I am not sure if I even would.....

Many people got stuck in the mud! That part really sucked because it was such a great area at an old abandoned taxi area of an east german airport and with plenty room for over 1000 BMW's AND a drag strip. And then it rains the first night(out of 3day event)...and not just a drizzle I mean it was like all of heaven was crying...LOL As far as cleaning is concerned M-speed.....the fanatics will bring their cars and wash them again afterwards! LOL [thumb]

I hear ya, it would be hard to stay away from a meet like that. Having all that space, room, and to top it off a drag strip would make it all worthwhile. That sucks it down poured on the first day. Looks like you still had a good time and great meet....

Thanks for the pics

I'm in the USA and new on this board. Thanks for the pictures. It's great to see such a diverse collection of cars at that event. While I am not interested in owning the over the top stuff I can appreciate the engineering, work and creativity. And since younger enthusiast owns the majority of these cars I'm happy to see them. To me it just signals future interest in the hobby. Plus it looked like some families were there. That’s cool. I don't always find that at events I attend. Now I love the touring especially the E30. You don't see them much here. I want one!

Yeah you will always find that here in Germany. Many people just made a weekend of it and camped out or got one of the hotels down the street. I have a friend who brought their dogs and rented a little apartment for the weekend....so it isnt just for the "guys" and odd "gal" anymore.....
