Book Reviews of Bmw Enthusiast's Companion: Owner Insights on Driving, Performance and Service

Book Review: Great book
Summary: 5 Stars

This book just radiates quality. There is a lot of very useful information in this book that can be applied to any car, not just BMWs. For instance, there is a great article that explains torque and how important it is for the acceleration of a car. There is also a collection of articles on tires and how changing their size affects your car greatly. Of course, there are a lot of articles pertaining to specific BMW models too. I don't even own a BMW (I want an E24) and I own this book, that's how good it is.

Summary of Bmw Enthusiast's Companion: Owner Insights on Driving, Performance and Service

For more than 25 years, informed BMW owners have relied on Roundel, the magazine of the BMW Car Club of America, to make their "Ultimate Driving Machines" more ultimate. Now a selection of articles on driving, performance, service and tech tips have been collected in a single book. Whether you drive a sporting 325iC or the uncompromising 850CSi Sport Coupe, this book will serve as a valuable maintenance guide, performance handbook and technical reference source, to help you understand and care for your BMW.

BMW owners and BMW Car Club of America members provide specific information for your BMW:

-Valuable insights and technical information ranging from basic service

tips to advanced driving theory-written by BMW owners and club members

specifically for BMW cars.

-Inside secrets on maintaining, preserving and caring for your BMW. Find

out how to properly wash and wax your car without damaging the paint, and

how to reset the service indicator lights.

-Driving techniques ranging from basic car control to choosing apexes on

the track. Discover whether your car understeers or oversteers, and how

weight transfer affects traction and vehicle dynamics.

-Learn the difference between torque and horsepower, how to select the

right tires for your BMW, which performance modifications work and which

ones don't.

Organized and indexed for quick access and easy use, this book contains extensive driving and performance tuning information. Favorite articles and series are bundled together, such as On Driving and Shade Tree Topics.

"BMW Enthusiast's Companion" is a must-have for all BMW owners and enthusiasts.
