I have a dream

If you ever decide to do it - let us know!

from Google Translate:
Wenn Sie jemals entscheiden, es zu tun - lassen Sie uns wissen!

I share this dream with you since years. Maybe we can organize a big enough group and then charter a complete cargo ship
I do have a Croatian customer who is captain on cargo ships. Maybe he can organize something for us?

Cheers
Wolf

Why we must ship the Cars to USA , we buy the 8series or the Alpinas in the USA and to the end of the Trip we organize the shipping to Germany ?

many greetings from
Löti

Löti, no chance to get a B12 Coupé back from the former colonies. They've had a lot of trouble to register (homologize ?) these E31 Alpinas there.

Sorry: Armin

Thanks Marc for the opening of this Topic then right, this Idea to drive the Route 66 becomes now slowly a real plan for......

Roger I talked already to Steve about this and wanted to introduce this on the upcoming conf-call next Saturday

It is very important to start this conversation as there are many issues to be sorted out and finally, find a Date who matches most of the participants private live
For my example I decided to leave my 8 in SFO with my Cousin and continue the Year after..... so I have for 2 Years.... maybe this is an option for more of us... and so on
Feel free to bring up such thoughts

Sounds like a proper dream!!!
This would also be a dream of mine, but not this time.

Instead of leaving my dear diva alone and far away from dad and mom and Neuschwanstein Castle for years after years, I'd prefer to leave my scalp nailed at Promontory Point and to bring the 416 horses into their common stable.

Hiya: Armin

Fascinating idea I must admit. Would love to join if possible.

Wir haben dieses Thema "Route 66 im 8er" nun auch Offiziell bei unserem 8er.org Board Meeting vom vergangenen Wochenende in Valencia besprochen und den Kollegen aus USA entsprechend mitgeteilt.

Roger hat dieses Thema "Route 66" entsprechend auch im Bimmerforum eröffnet, mit angeblich grossen Interesse

Dick hat zudem bereits eine Mögliche Verschiffung ab Rotterdam offerieren lassen und spricht von einem Preis von 3500.- € für:
Rotterdam - New York / zurück: Los Angeles - Rotterdam
-one Way wäre etwas mehr als die Hälfte
nun wäre fehlt noch der Preis für: Rotterdam - New York - Rotterdam

Danke Dick für diese Interessanten Daten

Da haben wir doch bereits eine Basis, sprich einen ersten Horizont zum Diskutieren

Adrian aus Norwegen macht es schon !

2016 promises to be a special year - if you decide to come over, look into ending up in California in August. The big event at Monterey will include the Monterey Historic Races, The Legends at the Autobahn car show on the Jack Nicholas Golf Course, and then BMW CCA Oktoberfest. At all the events they are going to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of BMW, and we have been notified that the E31 will receive a special coral parking at both the Historic Races and the Legends of the Autobahn event.
