            I would guess that the F stands for that it comes after E in the alphabet. :D

              I just have to say, I have all my close friends calling out e36, e34, e28 and stuff like that. Us BMW enthusiasts are contagious! :)

              Good to know. One thread with no misinformation at all...one of very very few. ;)

                    Opened this thread too late. I didnt even have to google this, I knew it. Ah well. And F is just the letter after E, just like the number 4 comes after 3. It might be an F to our eye, but its still a form of "E"volution. :)

                        So whats the pronunciation, just like it looks? Ent-wick-lung?

                          Yeah that's what I was thinking! How can there have been SO many but we've only seen a few of them.
