BMW recommended web sites -- Where's E90Post?

stressdoc · 01-29-2009, 07:49 PM

On the Driver's Experience section of the BMWUSA website they list a collection of recommended enthusiast websites and forums / online sources.

But no Bimmerpost...

No Bimmerfest either.

Because they want naive badge whore enthusiasts. Not price slashing, mod crazy enthusiasts. Yet they will use our members nicer looking cars to keep the BMW badge looking hot.

Clearly we know too much and cannot be trusted.

IMO most of those sites have been around for a long time and have a good group of audience. Sites like this are cool to surf but not something I would recommend to buyers. A lot of us on here are impatient and complain about almost everything so I'm not sure if BMW would want their customers to be on here.

Note: I was a little surprised at first that bimmerfest wasn't on the list but I realized that it's about the same as this one.
