has anyone else used the bimmer forums site
 

i was told from a local kid to check out the bimmer forums site becuse it was a good one that site is a joke they make you post a hundred threads before you can even use a custom avatar .also if you post any question say a e30 question in the e36 section by mistake they throw a fit this site is so much better! thats all thanks.

yeah...I think the worst ones are the groups...like on myspace or facebook

its a very good website because there is just so much info due to their seniority, that being said some members are just total @$$holes, some are pretty funny, too, though. oh and the classifieds section is great

for example, one time a member posted in the lounge, he had an S4, and he was requesting people's votes on this one drag racing website, eh was 1st and there was a corvette that was closing up on him, so instead of everyone voting for him they all went and voted for the vette :)

bimmerforums is THE place for information. They're a little uptight over there, but it's because they've been around the longest that they've heard just about everything a million times. Some of your mods/admins here on United are long standing members there. I also spend a good bit of time on bimmerfest.

a little uptight is a under statement

+1 to dudesky. I'll peruse, but I don't post.

meh. if i need info i google it. Most of the time its not from bimmerforums. kinda funny most of the time its this site.

or some back alley website.

I love those back alley websites ^^

Check out bimmerwerkz & bimmerfest!!!
 

On the bimmerwerkz site you can set up your own garage.Its called vbgarage, & select up to 10 photo's and a story/ mod write up.Pretty Cool! Show off your Bimmer!!

yeah bimmerwerkz is good. Bimmerforums I usually just check out for info, and all of the local people use that site.

Im pretty active on bimmerfourms. Their is no better forum for info, or DIY. Just have to earn your stripes over their pretty much. Get used to their sense of humor and stuff, and youll be fine

Basically what everyone said...great resource for information, great classified section, some cool people (though some are rather uptight).

Granted I don't post often here, I liked the closer knit community of UB better. :thumbup

BimmerFest isn't bad either.

Im all over the friggin place
 

The first site I joined up on was Bimmerforums, followed by the werkz, the fest, and some 'other place that I forget where the hell it was', and now United Bimmer! You can never have too many information resources. I havent been trashed by any members on any of these sites for 'stupid questions' or whatever. Most of those Ive encountered have realised something, we share a common bond here, an appreciation for something we know of as the ultimate driving machine, so we dont go pissing on our sibling counterparts unless they REALLY deserve it!
:cheers

Bimmerforums has the best off topic section ever...period

Why?
