That's Bayerische Motoren Wankers AG to you.
It's crazy that few days ago I learned what BMW stands for and now I see it everywhere.
I thought it was Bavarian Motor Works or something? Logo was a propeller? No? This is what I’ve always known it to be.
Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, is the proper name, but sometimes people anglicized it to Bavarian Motor Works.
