The Vintage 2022

[Andrew]

Dang.  I wish i would have spotted this earlier; I would've timed it with visiting family in Asheville.  I've driven through Hot Springs and I never would have guessed there would be a BMW event there.  Beautiful roads and beautiful mountain landscape.

Only BMW I have that I would enjoy the trip in right now is my 2002. Is anyone still going?

Otherwise I would be interested next year so I can take my e30, I will mark my calendar NOW. lol

We are still going!  Gonna make it an annual trip... Gonna take my E30 this year, my wife's E30 Cabrio next year, and hopefully by the third year, I'll have the E21 ready to go, lol.

Looking forward to it!!!! It would be awesome to get a WiBimmers group going ever year!

I am 100% in for next year. Bit off more that I could chew time-wise this spring so it’s looking more like mid summer when the e30 will be back on the road, but I definitely want to do this and would love to make it an annual thing.

Awesome. Im actually going to go to Alpine Vag Fair which is just south of there in Helen, GA. Might have to make a detour along the way for a day!

Just got back from the area a few days ago. Weather was perfect!

We made it!  Not a single hiccup ( except for the Indiana roads beating us up) and even managed about 28mpg! 

The cars are rolling in from all over... Amazing cars.... I need to find myself a 2002 now, lol.

We're off to Greer SC today to attend "50 years of M" at the BMW CCA and check out the production facility and performance center.

Tomorrow is the big show, expect a big photo dump!

Have fun. Indiana bent my skid plate lol

We'll, this is definitely going to be a yearly event for us! The drive isn't bad and certainly part of the adventure.

The people and cars were amazing.... Even participated installing a turbo in a 2002 I the hotel parking lot the night before the show.

I made it to Helen, and was planning on driving back up Saturday morning. I checked the weather and it was 20 degrees colder and called for thunderstorms so I decided against going. It looks like the weatherman was wrong again. Oh well, I will make sure I attending next year. Please share all the photos you can!
