For the past eighty years, BMW made many fantastic cars.  Here is the list of all BMW models and the years they have been produced.

The era of BMW has been divided into periods depending on time they were produced and their style.

 

BMW has given to all its modern cars as well as to all its motors different letter and number codes. The same BMW car chassis would have different motors and the identical motor has been built into many different cars. No other carmaker makes so many versions of the identical looking car to match the needs of its clients.

 

 

       
 

In May of 1972 BMW has established a special division called Motorsports GmbH often also called M-Technik to support drivers racing on BMW cars. Since then, changes in several BMW cars were introduced in suspension, transmission, engine, chassis and styling. Sometimes a completely new BMW M-car has been created using only main elements of chassis of its predecessor.

 

While Alpina is a  separate production entity, the company since its beginnings, works closely with BMW, producing tuned ultimate performance versions of the BMW  cars in a truly luxurious edition. All Alpinas are surrounded by admiration. They are truly the dream cars of every BMW fan.

 

 

       

For decades, BMW designs drew many controversions, always ahead of its time. While not always a commercial success, BMW cars were seen as pieces of art and people who created them were recognized as one of the world's most interesting designers. Traditionally hiring foreign designers, in XXI century BMW drew to its ranks designers from all over the world and having very talented women among them.
