If you are not a official photographer of BMW do yourself a favour and delete that! Otherwise the lawers of BMW will contact you. BMW own all copyrights on their signet and building. Only a tip ;-)

Thank You Maria. I will consider a deletion, but my legal advisor stated as follows. As a building originating prior 1990 and as a photograph taken from a publicly accessible location or street view, there are no copyright issues to be expected unless the photograph is used commercially. The law for architectural copyright was changed in 1990 and buildings complete after that have more extensive copyright protection ( The BMW Welt by Calatrava). As far as for the copyright of the BMW emblem, it is only relevant if the BMW signet would be the central point of the picture and the picture use would be related to promote, compare or relativate other brands or products. Editorial uses are allowed ( restrictions apply).
