Alexander Hom

Condensed Bio: My passion for BMWs began with my earliest automotive memory—a family test ride in my uncle’s 2005 E46 M3 Cabrio, top down, with the straight-six roaring and the SMG paddles snapping through gears. I grew up immersed in the world of cars, cruising in my uncles’ BMWs, sketching designs, exploring auto shows, and devouring automotive publications like BMWBLOG, where I’ve been a loyal reader for over a decade. At 21, I bought my first car, an ’88 BMW 325iC E30, proudly sporting Schwarz/Natur colors and a five-speed manual. At 16, I specced my mom’s 2018 F30 330i Shadow Sport Edition in Melbourne Red Metallic. My dream BMWs? The 507, M1 Procar Group 5 Sauber, and 3.0 CSL #25, among countless others. Writing about BMWs feels like a dream come true, and I’m honored to share that passion with fellow enthusiasts.
