MX1 WEEKEND WITH GENESIS SATURDAY

Saturday, April 10 will be a great day to see an exceptional collection of BMWs from the beginning to 1965, all in one place at the BMW CCA Foundation Museum. We have 20 rare cars from the 1930 3/15 HP DA2 Cabriolet to a 1965 3200 CS. We also have four BMW motorcycles. You may have seen one or two of these vehicles at events around the country, but now you get to see ALL of them in one place! – The oldest BMW in the US – The only known EMW’s in the US – Classics like the 507, 328, 327 and 315 – An Isetta and a 600 – Motorcycles from 1927 to 1949 including an R75 from WW2 – A bevy of aluminum V8 powered cars from an era when nobody else was making aluminum V8’s except BMW Admission includes access to a great audio tour. If you bring some earbuds/headphones, you can listen to the audio tour on the cars and motorcycles through your smartphone. If you want to hear some of those engines, we’ll be firing them up. While these cars are beautiful to look at, they sound pretty cool too! Throughout the day we’ll be opening the doors and running some of them while providing nice photo opportunities. And of course, GENESIS exhibition books, posters, and merchandise will all be available to feed your BMW obsession. GENESIS: BMW From the Beginning is presented by The Werk Shop and generously supported by Yokohoma, Classic BMW, CocoMats / Furstil, and BMW Classic Car Club of America. Details on outdoor activities at the Foundation – We have free parking for about 400 cars. Typically it’s quite an amazing array of guest BMWs on the grass. COVID-19 Information: The safety of our guests, staff, and volunteers, is critical. For outdoor portions of the event, masks and social distancing will be applied. For indoor portions of the event, museums have installed a number of safety features to help protect everyone. For the BMW CCA Foundation Museum – Though state and local rules permit half occupancy, we wish to be extra-cautious and are limiting attendance at any given time. We will allow 10 people to enter every 15 minutes. When you register, you will have to pick a time slot for yourself/your group. In addition, we ask you to maintain social distancing while visiting the Museum, and we require all guests—as well as staff and volunteers—to wear a mask while inside the building. If you don’t have a mask, we will be happy to provide one. Regretfully, we cannot allow anyone to enter the museum without one.
