Do you run in a pack with that certain type of blinker fluid deficient friends? Do you always feel left out of the conversation because you don’t speak their arcane language? Perhaps you just want to observe the social customs of the tribe as an interested outsider.  Or maybe you’re eyeing your first BMW purchase and you want to join the culture, but need to brush up for your entrance exam.

Whatever the reason, it can be frustrating to translate all that “E91" and “F60" stuff into English and stay with the conversation. But fret no longer! Like the Rosetta Stone did with ancient languages before it, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is your key to understanding the opaque lingo of Bavarian car culture. Just keep it bookmarked whenever you wade into the wilds of the automotive internet, and you’ll be chatting with the natives like you’re one of them in no time!

It starts off easy enough. Then it gets absurd once the M models are their own platform.

As a former BMW owner I would request that you provide links to BMW related inside jokes/immature memes/shitposts so that one can engage in lighthearted banter while showing their knowledge on the subject:

Bonus starterpacks:

I think there are career opportunities for that at the UN.

This is a great idea. I could build a whole line of educational products.

Just thought that there has to be a ‘Classic British Sports Car’ starter pack that consists of some tools and a bus pass.

Nothing to anyone but your mechanic, as it should be.

Then you have no reason to speak the codes out loud. Problem solved.
