BMW owners and fans had the opportunity to get together and share their passion for the brand. I know BMW purists will tell me that a 'beemer' refers to a bike and not a 'bimmer', which is the car. Organisers of the brand, Carcandy Inc., chose a name that the South African car scene is familiar with, Beemer. There are already hugely successful BMW forums, such as SA Beemer, that have adopted the 'incorrect' name.
