Trip to Munchen

Dear all,

I just got back from Germany for a business trip and I took a day to visit the Museum of BMW and Mini showroom in Munchen. Here I would like to share some pictures with you guys, enjoy.

Mike

Nice picture, Mike!

Looks like those JCW 18" wheels aren't cheap at all!

wongakh,

Hell no! And guess what, it's still HEAVY!
But the 3 spoke steering wheel feels good, even though it looks like a PT Crusier's steering wheel.....

Thanks for the photos. I guess MINI is using the same showroom decor themes around the world.

Is it just me or does the new 6 series look a bit like a mid-1990's Ford Mustang?

Besides the look though, can you imagine driving a 6 speed 4.5 liter V8 sport coupe......
But really, it's not that impressive when I first saw the car neither. I would rather go with the classic 88-91 BMW M6 coupe....

beej,

I am 100% agree with you... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Munich was fun, I wish I can spend more time there since I was only there for 4 hours.... We went to the BMW Museum, the Olymapic area and have dinner (pig shoulder) and couple beers. Most of the time I was in Frankfurt taking care of some business.

Here are some pictures I took inside the BMW Museum. Also one picture for the service department of Munchen Mini. Looks like someone just pick up their brand new Mini One.........
Enjoy.
