The name escapes me right now, but there's a small car museum in Tustin or Santa Ana that hosts parties and the price is reasonable. So does the Peterson Automotive Museum on Wilshire and Fairfax. We had a BMWCCA luncheon and tour there a couple of years back.

Crevier sold the most cars of any BMW dealer. There were some BMW stats floating around and Crevier just blew everyone away. Word is that sales are down across the board; not in the toilet, just less than previous years.
I have attended a couple of events at Petersen. It's not a bad place but I don't live close enough to it to want to plan an event there and I try to arrange for hotel discounts and there are tons of hotels in the Palm Springs area. It's a resort destination so people can make it a relaxing getaway as well as an xoutpost.com meet.
The time frame I am shooting for is between late August and October. There is a preference for October for a variety of reasons but it starts getting into the high season in Palm Springs and that makes it more challenging to get hotels cheap and even getting the venue. I'm working on it....
