That's pretty specific.

Also note that there are a bunch of Honda Concertos everywhere including the one behind this E30. Man I want one of those.

Find an E46 316i Compact.

[Jdesign]

I felt like that was an easy task..

I haven't looked yet but I think I have found one before so I may have a couple starting points

[m42b32]

I found a ton of them around the BMW headquarters! Here is one with a nice background. I have no idea what specific model any of them are though since its nearly impossible to read the badges

[B C]

THATS the one I was thinking of!

I saw that car while looking for an isetta

[m42b32]

If that counts...

Find 3 generations of 3 series in one picture

but not at the BMW museum,  right?

Right. That's cheating.

[Jdesign]

this counts right?

[Jdesign]

If so, my next challenge would be a BMW with a bike on the roof rack.

[B C]

nicely done!

BMW with a bike on the roof rack,  checked for a bit during lunch. nothing yet.

[straight6pwr]

i've searched a couple times with no luck.. hard to find any cars with bikes on 'em.

i thought i'd be smart and search next to mountain bike trail heads, but that didnt work.

i started looking at parking lots of bike shops...but thats super tedious

[Jdesign]

HEH. I made a good one. In all honesty, I didn't even look for this one myself. So who knows if it even exists? LOL

[m42b32]

The closest I've gotten so far is an E91 with a roof rack parked outside a bike shop. I'm assuming, at some point right before the picture was taken, that there was a bike on there. I'm seeing a lot of bike racks, but no bikes. I realized my problem is I've been searching in places where people would bring their bikes. When they get there, they take them off and go somewhere. Time for a new strategy

Paging @GunMetalGrey

Yeah I was trying to do the same thing @m42b32 I even tried looking on the roads surrounding those areas because I figured there would be someone to or from with bike installed. I found about 5 cars, but none BMWs.
