Disappointed with fellow BMW owner

mightyaa · 07-31-2008, 01:54 PM

I felt bad after just getting my e90 M3: I was cruising down the highway trying to get some miles on the car when a very nice older 3-series comes flying up and started checking out my car. He rolled down the window to try and initiate a conversation, and I could tell he was an enthusiast. But I had my windows tinted that morning, and could not roll them down... He kept trying, but finally gave up and flipped me the bird and took off. I'm sure he thought I was an arrogant ass.

Felt bad, but there wasn't much I could do...

oh the fucking humanity of it all! You're telling me this cockbag gave you a cold stare when you pulled up to him? His mind was busy with his mother dying recently and his wife leaving him but obviously his priorities are out of whack because he didn't give you two thumbs up for driving the same brand of car he has.

I say lynch him and we all sell our BMW's.

I have people say hi and share nice comments about my car, I apppreciate it. But sometimes I am just spacing out. Not to mention the daily 1/2dozen tea bags that want to race me ...

BMW is marketed towards fanbois for status than enthusiast who enjoys driving now. Brandwhored out.

Why not sell it if you don't like it? BMW's are expensive to drive if you don't like them. Not only are you losing on depreciation but you repairs will be very expensive once you are out of your warranty.

That's funny that you spend so much time (Almost 6k posts) on a FAN SITE for such a "poorly built" automobile.

Very true. I love my poorly build BMW. Every time I climb into my crappy interior and feel the garbage suspension working on twisty roads I get a smile on my face. Every time I feel the power of my lame engine I get a smile on my face. Every time I wash and wax the horrible exterior, I get a smile on my face. I guess I just like crap. So I will be forever a fan of horrible cars.

you should seen the m6 driver i gave a thumbs up to lol

I too am guilty of this. I have a thing for crappy cars. I can only imagine what driving a car with the caliber of a honda fit is like.

Anyways, I was driving on one of the busiest highways in Florida and I see this hayabusa in my rear view and he pulls up right next to me and starts revving his engine and gives me the thumbs up. He turns around to see if I was still watching and takes off. I catch up to him about 5 seconds later and this guy starts doing a wheelie and take off. Other ppl in 911's and M6 stop at the light to talk to me all the time. Don't be effected by 1 BMW driver and who cares if they dont look

true......the interior is crappy ---

but the car does handle great on the road.....i won't argue that.......

6-7 times in shop for miscellaneous crap is considered a poorly built vehicle.......

i won't make any excuses....it's my car!

You turned it into a piece of crap by modding it with crappy aftermarket parts. Don't blame BMW because the car was not engineered with your crap parts in mind.

Pretty sure you lowered the suspension and had bling bling wheels on.

So, what you're saying is that the H&R springs caused my rear window motor not to work ---

What about my sport seat breaking off.......who/what can i blame that on?
