Preventative maintenance is one of the best ways to protect the performance, reliability, and value of your BMW. Staying on schedule with routine services such as oil changes, brake inspections and fluid replacements helps prevent minor issues from becoming costly repairs. Regular maintenance also ensures your engine, transmission, and other critical components continue to operate at peak efficiency, delivering the driving experience BMW is known for. In addition to improving safety and fuel efficiency, keeping up with factory-recommended maintenance can extend the life of your vehicle and help preserve its resale value by demonstrating that it has been properly cared for.

The Red Pig

The Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.8, famously known as the "Red Pig" (or Rote Sau), is a legendary 1971 racing car built by the then-independent tuning company AMG. It catapulted AMG to global prominence by securing a shocking second-place overall finish at the 24 Hours of Spa endurance race.

AMG bored out the stock 6.3-liter V8 engine to 6.8 liters, transforming the luxury sedan into a roaring track monster. The powerplant produced 428 horsepower and 448 lb-ft of torque. This massive power output allowed the heavy, four-door racer to achieve speeds of up to 165 mph.

The NASA (National Auto Sport Association) 25 Hours of Thunderhill was the longest closed-course endurance race in North America.
The peak years of the event came in the late 20-teens. With teams and drivers from as far away as the Netherlands, Japan and New Zealand, the NASA 25 Hour had gained a worldwide reputation as one of the toughest races to finish, let alone win.
In 2020, with the onset of the global coronavirus pandemic, the 25 Hours of Thunderhill was cancelled, returning in 2021 and 2022. Participation had diminished to the point that the race was not sustainable.
The Track Spec E46 M3 (pictured) earned a podium finish (3rd in E1 Class), 9th Overall in the 2022 race.
BMW North America has developed and raced 325 Advanced Diesel cars, with a notable (BMW Diesel 335d) fourth overall and third in the ES class in 2006.
BMW cars are a major staple of the grid, ranging from grassroots E30s and E36s to factory-backed entries and modified M-series race cars.

ESTABLISHING & MAINTAINING

Keeping detailed service records for your Mercedes-Benz is one of the best ways to protect your investment and ensure long-term reliability. Regularly documented maintenance helps verify that factory-recommended services have been completed on time, allowing technicians to identify potential issues before they become costly repairs. Comprehensive service records also enhance your vehicle's resale value by giving prospective buyers confidence that the car has been properly cared for throughout its life. Whether it's routine oil changes, brake service, transmission maintenance, or major repairs, a complete maintenance history demonstrates responsible ownership and helps preserve the performance, safety, and luxury experience that Mercedes-Benz is known for.

The Legendary W196

The Mercedes-Benz W196 was one of the most advanced and successful Formula One racing cars of the 1950s. Developed by Mercedes-Benz for the 1954 and 1955 Formula One seasons, it featured innovative technology such as mechanical direct fuel injection and desmodromic valve operation, giving it a significant performance advantage over its rivals. Driven by legendary racers such as Juan Manuel Fangio and Stirling Moss, the W196 won 9 of the 12 races it entered and secured consecutive World Drivers' Championships in 1954 and 1955. The car was produced in both streamlined and open-wheel versions, with the streamlined "Monza" bodywork designed for high-speed circuits. Its remarkable success established the W196 as one of the greatest Grand Prix cars in motorsport history and helped cement Mercedes-Benz's reputation for engineering excellence.

Innovation & Craftsmanship

Alpina's roots can be traced back to 1962, when Burkard Bovensiepen developed a Weber dual carburetor for the BMW 1500. This carburetor was well received by the automotive press, as well as BMW's own sales boss Paul G. Hahnemann. In 1964, BMW certified the quality of this Alpina product by awarding BMW vehicles fitted with the Alpina system the full factory guarantee.
In its first years, Alpina established its core competency by tuning carburetors and camshafts to extract more power from BMW engines, elements that eventually defined the company's logo, which came into being in 1967.
With a rich racing heritage, Alpina is renowned for their innovation, performance and craftsmanship. BMW ALPINA was (re)launched as an exclusive standalone brand under the BMW Group umbrella this year. Emphasizing performance, ride comfort, bespoke options and custom materials, they presented the vision at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este.
