100 years, damn!

Well, my favorite is in your title-the "1". Yup, no bias at all

Okay, I'm just kidding. My real answer would be the 507.

i absolutely love the new m2, and my favorite of all time is the bmw m8 that they only built 1 of. Would've been amazing to see the capabilities of that car

Wow, great question for bmw NA.. thanks for doing that.
I'd be bias if I have to say the E92 M3 GTS as the 1.

so I tried to picture many bmw's sitting in my garage.
nope, it doesn't work.
it's still that bright fire orange right there, works for me.

Many my absolute favorite would be one of the cars I grew up lusting after I suppose...

E34 M5 - Or even the generic 5 series. At this point BMW was at their peak in terms of engineering lead, driving dynamics and reliability IMO. I know several people that had E34's that were fantastically reliable, drove well, were quiet and held up extremely well. A good friend of mine wrecked his in 2003, it was a 1994 with 170k on the clock and the highway patrol said the car saved his life, they'd never seen anyone survive something like that. Basically a piece of fence flew off a truck in front of him lodged itself in his windshield, as he tried to avoid it he hit a bridge post. Walked away...

Another car? The E36 M3...4 door family hauler, reasonably affordable and fantastic performance. Not exactly the most reliable, cooling system issues seemed to plague the cars...but man I wanted one.

E39 5 series, perhaps the best car ever for its time? While I would disagree with this, many journalists and enthusiasts call it the best car of its time period, especially the M5. I know a few folks that owned them, not exactly the most reliable unless you had a lower trim car. The V8 cars in particular were troublesome and all seemed to be plagued with power window/door lock issues and water pump/cooling issues.

Those would be the three that put BMW on the map. I still think about pulling the trigger on a clean E34.
