Some pics from Bimmerfest 2005
 

Literally 100's of BMWs here.....Everything from Classic BMWs to "Pimp My BMWs" here......Lots of vendors, Yokohama with their new ADVAN tires. Brembo, Evosport, B&M, Dinan, Turner motorsports, Umnitza (x5Monkey's favorite), Pelican Parts, etc. Bill Auberlin was there to talk and got a great poster with his sig on it. I'm sure you can read all about it on BF forum.

BTW, I met up with Jon Shafer again! Again, a classy guy. :thumbup: He says "HI!" to everyone here. :) Anyhow, as always, he wanted me to tell you guys that you are always welcome at Bimmerfest and don't let a few rowdy guys keep the X5 guys away. He commented that our X5 group was one of the more entertaining group and was sorry that many of us left. Nevertheless, as Jeff and Kevin know, Jon is a great guy and I applaud him for this HUGELY successful Bimmerfest. :D

Anyhow, lot's of people and lot's BMW, but only 1 really pimped up X5 this year. Oh well, there is always next year.

Here are the Yoko's ADVAN tires for the X5!

More views of the Yoko ADVAN treads and the Brembo stand!

A 330i with a M3 side grill and X5 3.0i badge! :dunno:

Doesn't that 645Ci look like a 911 with the trunk open?

And the X3 with snazzy add-ons.

More X3 pics with aluminum running boards

A sharp looking black Z8! Now where has ArtZ8 been?

M5 with Dinan Supercharger.

Evosport's own supercharger system for the E46 M3.

Umnitza's stand (Matt is behind that crowd of people).

DDE rings from Umnitza

Todd from Phoenix drove his ESS Supercharged 330i performance package from SuperGreg's neighborhood. SG, you could have caravan with him, but then it would push you to your first oil service! :bustingup

AC Schnitzer's toothy smiling 645Ci drop top..... :scared:

:zoom: Okay, finally a X5-related picture!

X5 4.4i with AFE intake. The hood forms the "top" of the airbox. It has solid plastic heat shield. Looks similar to the Dinan air-intake. There is one available for the 3.0i.

Also, this 4.4i has 20" HRE wheels (same front/rear size tires as the 4.6/4.8 is)

X5 with 20" HRE wheels

PNG can add scissors door to his Boxster! :confused:

A bunch of 3-series with DDEs

Race car guys are the celebrity here!

You can see Team Dinan in the blues....

Bill Auberlin was there signing posters!! Great guy to shoot the breeze with re: racing etc. :thumbup:
