BIMMERPOST is an independant private enthusiast site dedicated to BMW fans around the world and is in no way affiliated or owned by BMW AG.

BIMMERPOST is the project of friends Mark and Jason who began this site as a small forum dedicated to the 3-Series. The site grew in popularity and the forums expanded to cover the entire BMW lineup of vehicles. With all these enthusiasts under one roof we decided to expand and add a dedicated blog of news and information. And so was born the BIMMERPOST BMW news blog.
