Description

The Power of M, Celebrating 50 Years exhibit is crossing the finish line! Join us on Friday, January 20th, 2023 to celebrate all the owners, the cars, and the sponsors that made this exhibit a success. We hope to honor the cars' time at The Ultimate Driving Museumwith one last shebang. Jackie Jouret will interview the owners on hand about their incredible M cars and thank them for sharing them with us…and with you! Where previous events have focused on superstar M cars like the CSLs and M3s, the closing event will focus on the less well-known cars in the exhibit: those that bring M and Z together, as well as early M cars including the 2002 turbo and M635CSi. Jackie will discuss the importance of each car to BMW Motorsport history, as well as what makes these cars special to their owners. As the author of "The Power of M: Celebrating 50 Years,” Jackie will also be available to sign copies of the book, which you can buy in the BMW CCA Foundation store if you don’t have one already. Don't worry if you missed our M Anniversary event in October 2022! Though seeing and hearing Peter Gleeson's 3.0 CSL lap the BMW Performance Center’s track was a real treat, as was seeing so many of The Power of M’s M5 sedans on track and watching Bill Auberlen and Tom Plucinsky run charity laps, you still have one more chance to see and experience cars and people that have made The Power of M run! Friday January 20th, 2023 $50 The celebration will be held at The Ultimate Driving Museum, 190 Manatee Court, Greer SC, 29687. Click HERE for directions. We will be hosting the event in the exhibit area for a last look at the cars before they go home. Hors d'oeuvres and beer and will will be available. Come see what door prizes we will be giving away! The evening festivities will begin at 6:00pm and end around 9:00pm on Friday night, January 20th, 2023. _______________________________________ The Power of M: Celebrating 50 Years exhibit is lovingly dedicated to the memory of Eric Keller, co-founder of EAG. _______________________________________ The Power of M: Celebrating 50 Years is presented by Tire Rack and generously supported by Continental Tires, BMW Value Services & M Accessory Parts, FCP Euro & Liqui Moly, Century BMW, The Werk Shop, Coco Mats, BMW NA Product Communications & Heritage, Hagerty, and Enthusiast Auto Group. _______________________________________ The BMW CCA Foundation home of The Ultimate Driving Museum is located in Greer, SC, directly next door to the BMW Performance Center, and across the street from BMW's largest manufacturing center.
