‡BMW entered existence as a business entity following a restructuring of the Rapp Motorenwerke aircraft engine manufacturing firm in 1917. ‡After the end of World War I in 1918, BMW was forced to cease aircraft engine production by the terms of the Versailles Armistice Treaty. ‡ The company consequently shifted to motorcycle production in 1923 once the restrictions of the treaty started to be lifted, followed by automobiles in 1928 29.

‡The circular blue and white BMW logo or roundel is

portrayed by BMW as the movement of an aircraft propeller, to signify the white blades cutting through the blue sky ‡By the year 1959, the automotive division of BMW was in financial difficulties and a shareholders meeting was held to decide whether to go into liquidation or find a way of carrying on. It was decided to carry on and to try to cash in on the current economy car boom enjoyed so successfully by some of Germany's ex-aircraft manufacturers. ‡ This was moderately successful and helped the company get back on its feet. The controlling majority shareholder of the BMW Aktiengesellschaft since 1959 is the Quandt family, which owns about 46% of the stock. The rest is in public float.

‡The first-generation BMW Z4 was designated the E85

in roadster form and E86 in coupé form. It was designed by Danish BMW-designer Anders. ‡BMW releases a new package for the popular Z4 roadster. Here, the new equipment package Design Pure Balance is on show, specially tailored by designers to suit this successful model. ‡The interior has been generously fitted with leather in the attractive new colour Cohiba Brown, with contrasting seams in Lotus White. ‡The package is rounded off with additional black leather features featuring seams in Umbra, Fineline Anthracite wood and sports seats as standard.

‡The paint finish Mineral White metallic is also

available for the first time in the BMW Z4, exclusively in connection with the new package Design Pure Balance. ‡ its fine metallic pigmentation it leaves a brilliant impression in the true sense of the word.

The design of the new BMW 7 Series: the result of keen competition among the best creative designer Nader Faghihzadeh. The BMW Group s process of designing a new vehicle and finding the ideal shape is based on a concept of keen competition. In the development of each new model, several design teams compete with one another in their design of the exterior and interior in a truly creative contest. Made up of designers and modellers, the teams then, in the second phase of the design process, complete models in original, 1:1 size clearly showing the aesthetic harmony of the car s proportions and surfaces. To do this they use a simple but very important material in the design process clay.
