Kevin Shasteen Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 The question I am posing is in regards to the BMW logo. Besides the logo being indicative of the BMW lineup-what deeper sybolism resulted in it, the logo, being chosen as BMW's trademark?

Boobala Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 It's a propeller. Left over from thier aicraft engine building origins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Shasteen Posted July 26, 2003 Author Share Posted July 26, 2003 You are partially correct, however, there is still more to the symbolic logo. The logo specifically represents what one would see if they were looking at a "White" Propeller in motion against a "Blue" Sky. ...our Judges concurred & they will accept your answer as correct Yea, Boobala is our winner. (winner buys lunch at a place of our choosing ) Kevin, (Yea,Still an Inliner) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 The blue and the white "diamond" shapes are from the Bavarian flag, where the car is made: BMW = "Bavarian Motor Works." Boobala is correct in stating it is a propeller design, but the colors have deeper meaning then you think. I know, my mother was Bavarian.
