Funny Car Acronyms

diymirage said
What a lot of people dont know is that BMW is actually an acronym in german
(Makes sense, since its a german car, right?)

The letters actually stand for "Blau Mitt Weiss"

Which literally translates to "Blue And White"

A quick glance at BMWs logo will explain how factual this is

Bayerische Motoren Werke. Bavarian Motor Works. They built aero engines initially and the blue white symbol represents a spinning propeller.

Sorry for the redundancy, I later noticed others had already addressed it.
