Every year, hundreds of BMW fans in the Chicagoland area get together to showcase their bimmers. The 2014 Big Meat has drawn a record crowd this year and over the course of a few hours, BMW fans exchanged experiences, modding and tuning tips, and even shared rides aboard their cars.

From E46 M3s and M Coupes to the new M3/M4 and even our own BMW 1M, we have seen a wide range of stock and modded bimmers that would make jealous any BMW owner out there. Even a BMW 2002 tii was there to showcase the heritage of the brand.

The day ended with a barbeque and a raffle where several prizes were awarded by the event’s sponsors.
