Automobile Nostalgia: Benz vs. BMW Quick Facts

Few things spark passions in car-lovers more than arguments over classic cars. One battle that has been waged for years is between classic BMWs and Benzes. Here are a couple quick comparisons between these two auto-makers, each with their own storied histories:

Origins
The “Benz” name traces back to 1886 when it was used with the Benz Patent Motorwagen. The Benz Motorwagen is generally regarded as the first automobile. BMW traces its origins back to 1917.

Football
Both Mercedes-Benz and BMW sponsor football clubs. In the top-flight German Bundesliga, Benz sponsors VfB Stuttgart and BMW sponsors Eintracht Frankfurt.
