BMW, I thought had their M series and is built by regular BMW staff? I don't think Dinan builds their engines, or does their in house tuning. I think Alpina would be the closest.

BMW has M is correct

There is Dinan as a 3rd party much like Merc has Brabus and Lorinzer.

Ford has SVT.... I'm pretty sure Saleen is 3rd party... and Rousch too... but not sure... might be 3rd party but very tight association with Ford.

and AMG started off 3rd party, but MB bought them

Yes and no. Alpinas are distributed and are serviced by BMW dealers, but they are technically a separate auto manufacturer.
