Question for the Ladies...

Any other chicks notice that a lot of guys check you out in your e90?

Especially guys in their e46?

I swear I've had a few follow me and try to catch up and what not and almost run into me...

I don't look at other drivers when I'm in my car. I guess I'm too focused on driving. I think that I used to get a lot more looks in my Integra GS-R when I lived in CT but I don't know if it was because of the car or where I lived or both. I think it's just a thing down here in FL if a guy sees you in a brand new BMW and they're not driving a nice car then they feel lower than you and they just think you're a stuck up snobby bitch like basically every girl that drives a nice car in Boca. I get a lot less people trying to race me now than I did with my Acura TSX though. It's probably because it had the oem kit and wheels and it is more of a sporty car than a luxury car.

If guys blow you kisses when you're driving a brand new BMW then it doesn't really mean anything. If they do it when you're walking down the street then it's different. I actually do recall a time now where a guy did blatantly "check me out" in my BMW. It was a few months ago coming back from the beach he smiled and honked and started yelling something and I floored it haha.

I'm not a girl but i do see people checking out the car.. Maybe because they're curious of who's driving. My windows are tinted 14% all around.

Haha...I do the same thing. In fact, some guy did it this afternoon on my way back from San Diego. He rode along side with his head hanging out the window. I kept my eyes focused in front of me and sped up, but he just followed. After about 2 miles, I think he finally got the hint. Although it is flattering to be noticed, it is not the best way to pick up on a girl.

Oh! But at the same time, I also spotted a modded e90 on the road. When we passed each other, the driver and I both waved.

That was me, I was trying to ask what kind of tints and % you have on the car. I like the way the tints look on your car, I was thinking of having mine tinted like that...

Ahh....makes sense. I have custom 0% tint. It's only available from the stealership.

Cleverness is often another form of intelligence.

Okay, okay...next time a guy does that to me, I will make a "0" with my hand. Or maybe even an "L" on my forehead will suffice, haha.

I think you would confuse the next person even more. May I suggest you write your number on the window. When the other person calls, you can clarify what you meant with the hand gesture. That way, your message is clear. I can tell you, that it can be miscontruded as being "40%". Think someones going to be happy when they see their car with a 40% tint thinking it would look like your car?

Hahaha...you put so much effort into your reply that I actually laughed out loud!

I don't have time to post up my number in between shifting. I'm just not that talented, sorry!

When i first got my E90, it was back in July. They werent very common at the time, so i was getting a lot of stares. An older man in a lexus pulled up to me, and winked. But i think it has to do with the car ha ha. Yea i get looks while in the E90, but i think its those looks that are frankly, just looks. Hot car.
