Thanks To Sachin528. The Chicagoland Community will now have a parked thread to discuss Local news, Events, Chi town controversy, Local builds, businesses, and whatever else you guys see fit. No more having to search the Great lakes for chicago based happenings.
Ill start with posting the open house date shortly for Vs motorsports. My resident Bmw shop. I know im gonna be there and id like to see some more Bimmerforums members there. There shop is huge and a great place to meet and its gonna be a good time. So ill have details soon.
Sounds awesome. I moved to Chicago about 5 months ago now and bought my first BMW as well. Maybe I'm mistaken but the BMW community seems to blow around these parts. Maybe I just haven't been exposed to it yet really, but the IL based R3V crowd is made up of about 2 people total.
I'll plan on attending the shop opening...whenever it is.
Sounds great. The shop is actually open now. But there just hosting an open house and Bimmerforums meet. Ill have John post up the details. But welcome to the community! It does seem to be a little weak but im trying to change that!

Im out cruising around with the windows down today. ITS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! 52 and sunny.
Yup, that's what I did all Saturday, just drove around. It got up to 65 here.
I was out for a few hours in that great weather. I was kinda apprehensive about the convertible top working after not moving for so many months. Tomorrow is going to be even nicer!

Got a headlight burned out for an E46M3. Does anyone know where I could buy them locally? no auto zone stores carry them. I'd hate to pay dealer price on this. thanks in advance.
I think we are going to have the big open house the first week in april. We may be having a smaller ChitownM meet in the next couple of weeks. As some of you know I recently moved here from the mid atlantic area, and the meets there were huge. There was a really large bmw following, and I would really like to see that happen here. If I can be a part of that it would definately put a smile on my face. If anyone needs work done I would be happy to help you guys out. The number at the shop is 847-240-0888 my name is John. We are located on East Remington Rd. in Schaumburg. Oh and we get fantastic parts for less than the dealer. So if you guys need anything, just give me a holler.
BTW Monty Ill see you whenever your ready. Can't wait to see your beautiful car at the shop.
Nate I hope the car is running better and actually stoping now.

Ill b there!
As some of you may be aware there is a Chicagoland BMW Forum that has been around for some time. www.chitownm.com. We have weekly meets every wednesday (Consistently almost every week during the wintertime), cruises, photoshoots, track days, tech days, and so on. Join up. No BMW left behind!
Just to let you guys know there is a small meet going on tonight @ Chipotle in streets of woodfield. ~7 or so.
Sounds good buddy. Wanna give me a ride in the M3
Yeah thats me. I am a newbie to the Bimmer's. I got a 1994 E34 525i Auto off of EBay over the weekend. Im getting the window replaced today and still need the control arm(s) fixed. Any events this year or even drives/cruises I may be interested in.
Thanx Every1
