Before BMW started to produce cars, it manufactured motorcycles then aircraft engines that powered a number of well-known German airplanes such as the Focke-Wulf FW 190. In the BIMMR TWO DEPARTURE from the Greenville-Spartanburg International airport (KGSP), DRIVN around Greer in the South Carolina Upstate in your BIMMR ZZCAR (BMW Z Car), you can stop by the BMW ZNTRM (Zentrum) visitor center next to its US factory. However, let’s not be too acerbic (ACERB) by confusing a Bimmer (car) from a Beemer (motorcycle) and much less a Beeser (BSA motorcycle).
