Why don't you point out his mistake? A Beemer is a motorcycle not a car. The car is called a Bimmer. Somehow Bimmer was lost on the way over from Germany so most Americans incorrectly just use Beemer to refer to all BMWs. A big <G> as I don't particular care about the subject, but once had it explained to me by a BMW fan...

"If somebody calls your car a Beamer, you may want to correct them if you care at all about how foolish they appear to be... I mean I'm sure I would want to be told if i was confusing a car with a motorcycle or I had a sesame seed stuck between my front teeth or something."
