Now this is a post. Beautiful. Will save this to do the same trip in a couple years. Looks like a drivers dream

Woah! How do I get an invite to next year's?

This is beautiful! We need to do this through the Rockies in the US!

Wow some really nice photos on here 👍 when was this? I'm on a European road trip at the moment and I was at the Furka Pass just a few days ago on the 4th august , I'm now at the Stelvio Pass and am due to drive over to a Verbier tomorrow via lake como and then through the Aosta region 👍

He used to post pics of the excursions he'd go on. Great post.


I need a Black M2 with gold wheels.

The Swiss Alps are stunning & wish I could see this in person!

Beautiful views! What a great trip with friends on some amazing roads.

I have family in Zermatt and this post has me ready for another visit. Sure the driving is fun, but I could hike there day after day and not get bored of the vistas.

Thanks for sharing such an in-depth recap!

What a beautiful drive. The scenery is something you don't see every day. Pretty jealous.
Side note: My wife has a 2020 GTI, I showed her the 140i and the first thing she says is "it's cute!" "Why don't they have them in the US?" Hear that BMW? You have a legit audience for the car here. I much prefer going to the BMW dealership for service than shitty VW.

It's not the image BMW wants

They brought a 3er hatchback to the US before and it never sold and it hurt their image accordingly

Your wife is correct it's a super cool car

Nice trip and great pics. There was even a chance that I could have met you…but sadly no luck.

Susten, Grimsel and Furka are basically my evening drives…I'm almost once a week driving some or all of them

Let me know next time you're around

I don't want to derail this thread, but I think BMW's image has taken a hit with their recent design language choices (and don't argue about cars selling, every car is selling like hotcakes in this backwards car market).
I think BMW would have a home run by brining a (correctly priced) 1 series hatch to rival the GTI/Golf R.

Stunning photos! Jealous, that drive looks incredibly fun.

Love the gold on BSM!

Oh yes, Monza! I always have to think of our trip back from the F1 GP 2000. Shortly before the Splügen pass there was suddenly a bang and the gearbox of my Z3 wouldn't shift anymore and remained in 3rd gear. But I said to myself, we'll make it back to Zurich! And we actually made it 🤣

We skipped the glacier at Furkapass and went up to the Aletschglacier.

The best part? These roads are right outside my door.

You are living in a beautiful country!

Sorry for the late answer. I‘m on vacation.

We started our tour on 10th of July. The end was 4 days later.
Your tour sounds also promising

Thought I'd loop back in after the trip. The race was awesome, but they switched to a token system for food/drink (also ran out of beer, wtf!), which caused a huge uproar and massive lines to exchange Euro for tokens.

We had an M8 and an A6 between the 5 of us.
Boston > Munich > Innsbruck > Como > Milan > Monza.

Just a few pics I think are worth sharing:
