Friday, October 14th – VIP Reception at the Zentrum
Enjoy a distinguished evening amongst BMW greatness. The Ultimate Driving Museum and Performance Center will be honoring the first Director of M Motorsport, Jochen Neerpasch.

The feature of the night will be a panel discussion with driver Eddie Cheever, star of Neerpash’s revolutionary BMW Junior Team campaign and BMW wheelman Bill Auberlen. The talk will be moderated by Tom Plucinsky, VP of BMW Product Communications.
There will be heavy hors d’oeuvres, beer and wine, door prizes and more. Limited tickets are available for the one and only M Anniversary Celebration, don’t delay in getting yours. $195 per person.
