BMW DRIVE FOR TEAM USA

IT'S MORE THAN JUST A TEST DRIVE. IT'S THE CHANCE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. BMW and Team USA. Both are made to compete at the highest level. And both are at the top of their respective games. So, in the spirit of friendly competition, we're hosting a unique event at BMW centers around the country.

The BMW Drive for Team USA Event gives you the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series and the all-new 6 Series Convertible. And we'll also give you the chance to test drive the competition so you can truly see how BMW is at the top of its game. What's more, BMW will donate $10 to Team USA for every drive that's scheduled. So when you get behind the wheel, you'll be helping American athletes train and compete in the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
