If I wanted to make a statement, I'd be rolling around in a Bentley, Maserati, or Aston-Martin. But I got my Z4MR because I want to make more than a statement - I want to make a f%$&ing announcement..."I've got extraordinary taste, and an unstoppable desire to go b@##s to the wall!"

Seriously though..I'm in Socal so a 3 series gives you zero status. I didn't buy it for that. I bought it after I test drove it. I'm a driver, not a poseur. I don't know what it says about me. I think I bought the best car, pound for pound, in the world. So I guess it says that I make wise purchases

image?
i like to wear flannels when i go down to my local bar downtown in my car.

royz86 · 01-05-2008, 02:21 AM

image --- maybe I'd get a Mercedes for it's "three pointed stars" brand, and you all know that Mercedes Benz is well known for it's "luxurious"-ness. but I bought a BMW for my pleasure, I just love it after having myself test driving E350 (no, Audi is NOT my option, sorry), although if my parents wouldn't have pushed me for a 07 530i I'd go for 335i for even more driving pleasure. but anyway I would've gotten a MB (07 E350 fully equipped is the same price as BMW) but now I am driving a BMW because........ i guess the handling/drive/fun speaks for itself...

Bingo. (except I couldn't care less...)

TurboFan · 01-05-2008, 08:31 AM

My statement.......uh........hey look I have a new car. But now that doesn't work 'cause the temp tags are gone.

I'm sure the OP will have a hard time believeing this, but I couldn't care less about the "image" of my car. If I could have had a RWD or AWD platform in a high performance sedan with 6MT from Honda, I'd have bought that. So my statement is I like RWD (or AWD) 6mt sport sedans?
