BimmerLife’s BMW MiX Weekend
With BMWs North American manufacturing base just up the interstate about 2 hours away its actually a little surprising there are not more BMW centric events in the Spartanburg area, even if BMW corporate HQ is in New Jersey. In addition the BMW CCA (Car Club of America) is also based out of the Greenville/Spartanburg area. This upcoming event is returning for it’s 3rd year. Also, If you didn’t realize it by now, the region just 2 hours from Atlanta is a hub for cars and especially BMWs.
While details are coming very soon about this exciting event, here is what we expect to see based on the previous iterations of the event.
Driving Experiences
We expect to see a return of the BMW hosted driving events where you get parade lap and/or behind the wheel experiences with M, i, and X model cars. This is likely to be primarily an autocross style setup for driving and the full track experience for ride alongs.
This driving experiences sell out very quickly so we recommend jumping on them when registration opens.
Social Experiences
As many clubs (including the local Atlanta CCA chapter) do, there will be a morning cars and coffee event. However, imagine literally hundreds (if not thousands) of BMWs. Non-BMWs will need to park in a separate lot. This will absolutely be one of the largest showings of BMWs in a single place you are likely to see.
Finally, fans of BMW history will love the follow up event where you’ll have an opportunity to see a historical viewing of 23 BMW cars and motorcycles from the 20s to the 60s. The event is expected to again include a tow of the BMW Museum which is also in Greer near the BMW CCA headquarters.
Expect swag giveaways, sales and plenty of fellow car enthusiasts throughout the weekend and specifically at the social events.
Schedule Of Events
We’ll post the schedule of events here as soon as it is announced.
Registration and Events Details
One important detail if you MUST be a BMW CCA member (or guest, being registered by a member) in order to attend many of the best events. If you own a BMW and are not a member you can pay your dues when you register (or just before). If you are a guest, better ask a friend before attempting to register.
