Author Steve Saxty Visits NJ BMW CCA.

Author Steve Saxty was the featured speaker at the NJ Chapter meeting last Wednesday. Circle BMW in Eatontown hosted the meeting and provided food and refreshments.

Steve talked about his new book project - “M Beyond the Badge”, a 3 volume set that follows his popular “BMW Behind the Scenes” set. He has become one of the most popular speakers at BMW CCA events and has some great stories as a result of his unprecedented access to BMW archives and executives.

The new volumes should be available by the end of the year and will be offered in a special BMW CCA Edition, so stay tuned.

Thanks to Steve Saxty and Circle BMW for an entertaining evening.

This past Saturday, more than 80 BMW Car Club of America members gathered at BMW’s Port Jersey Vehicle Distribution Center for the 10th Annual BMW VDC Tour.
Attendees went behind the scenes at the VDC, took part in technical workshops, and got an up-close look at some of BMW’s newest models through walkaround presentations, including the just-revealed BMW iX5.

The day also supported a great cause. Proceeds from the event, raffle, and silent auction benefited the BMW CCA Foundation, which preserves and promotes BMW history and advances teen driver safety through its Street Survival program.

A special thank-you to our event sponsor, BMW of Bridgewater, for its generous support. We’re also grateful to BMW North America, the BMW CCA Foundation, the Port Jersey VDC team, and everyone who helped make this 10th anniversary gathering such a success.

BMW of Bridgewater Sponsors BMW Car Club of America event at BMW VDC.

BMW Car Club of America New Jersey Chapter members were treated to an exclusive view of BMW North America’s Vehicle Distribution Center in Port Jersey on Saturday, September 19th. For the 10th year, BMW of Bridgewater sponsored the event and provided lunch to over 80 chapter members in attendance.

Members were treated to a tour of the facility and were fortunate to be on-site as a ship full of new BMWs was being unloaded. They were able to see the beginning of the process that gets cars ready for delivery and sent to the dealers. Remarkably, new BMWs can sometimes arrive at the dealer the same day they get off the ship!

In addition to the tour, BMW Corporate Communications executives previewed the new iX5 and had one available for members to sit in and learn about the many new features on the vehicle. There’s a ton of modern technology in this car!

BMW personnel were on hand to explain some of the engine technology that has made recent BMWs so powerful, smooth, and efficient. The explanation of some of the engine features was fascinating!

Attendees were also able to see some of the new BMW performance parts, as well as upcoming novel ideas that will allow owners to customize their car. Finally, BMW showcased examples of many of the current and upcoming models for members to see and sit in. As always, there was lots of eye candy to see!

The New Jersey Chapter also held a raffle of several items donated by the BMW CCA Foundation. As a result of the raffle and other funds from proceeds of the event, the Chapter was able to make a significant charitable donation to the BMW CCA Foundation.

Thanks to BMW of Bridgewater and BMW North America VDC for a fantastic event!

There are still a few open spots left for the Tire Rack Street Survival School on Sunday October 18th at Campgaw Reservation in Mahwah.

This is a tremendous experience for young drivers age 16-21 with a drivers permit or license. It combines behind-the-wheel instruction by trained coaches with classroom sessions to reinforce and interpret the driving lessons. Students learn how to control their car in various simulated emergency situations and become better drivers as a result.
