Good BMW Forum ?
Pelican is "great" for anything Porsche related .... but, posting any question re BMW vehicles is like mailing a letter to Mars and awaiting a reply ... what is the best Forum for BMW ?

bimmerforums is good, but you have to sift through a lot of immature teenagers to reach the smart people.

As I get older I find myself not really wanting to join any more "communities." So for my old bikes and cars I just Google whatever my question is, for example: 1991 BMW 318is spark plugs, and then just go to the various forums to get the information.

I am a member of a ton of different forums, but I tend to use them for exactly that. Some won't let you access all of the content if you don't join. I waste the majority of my time here.

Exactly, when I had my Corrado, I was on the 'tex, which sucked big ones! Only went to the tech part on there. Same with Bimmerforums, which was marginally better...

I'm on the Samba now, which seems decent, but again I only visit tech. Pelican is just home for me.

Having owned a Z3 and as a member if both forums, I think bimmerforums would have better info than Bimmerfest for that vintage.
