B
immer Invasion roared back into Orlando, Florida, on a rain-kissed
Saturday in mid-February. Despite the unexpected downpour in the
Sunshine State, the weather couldn't dampen the spirits of over 5000
enthusiasts and their 1500 BMWs, all
converging at the automotive haven
of Dezerland Park.
What exactly is Bimmer
Invasion? It's not just an event;
it's a celebration that unites BMW
enthusiasts in a shared passion.
It includes a judged car show, an
array of awards, 50+ sponsor booths,
and a VIP indoor display. The
atmosphere was popping with the
energy of the tuner and aftermarket
crowd all gathered to proudly showcase
their BMWs.
Adding prestige to the event, the
BMW CCA M Chapter proudly sponsored
Bimmer Invasion, along with
the Florida SunCoast Chapter. Together, they curated a captivating BMW CCA
display area, joined by the X Chapter and the Everglades Chapter.
A dedicated team of 20+ club volunteers showcased their cars, and this year,
BMW North America joined in with a stunning display of their latest M and X
models. Notable among them were the M3 CS in Signal Green, the M4 Comp
in Frozen Purple, the M4 Comp CV in Fire Orange, the X6M Comp in Velvet
Blue, and the XM Label in Anglesey Green.

Reflecting on the event, Jay L. Hanson, BMW NA Product and Technology
By Simone Harrison | Photos as credited
Spokesperson, commented, " The fan participation was fantastic despite the
weather, and the variety of vehicles on display, along with the enthusiastic
participation of vendors and clubs,
was truly impressive. "
The highlight of the awards
ceremony saw Brian Kinports, a
Florida SunCoast member, claiming
the prestigious title of BEST
CLASSIC BMW for his sleek black
2002. And, Rusty Johnson, a proud
member of the M and Sandlapper
Chapter, earned the coveted BEST
PAINT AWARD for his awe-inspiring
Uber M3.
Bimmer Invasion 2024 left an
indelible mark on Orlando, proving
that not even rain could wash away
the community and passion shared by
BMW enthusiasts. It was evident that
the spirit of Bimmer Invasion continues to accelerate, promising an even more
thrilling experience at the event later this year in Los Angeles.
