I hate BMW and most of their owners

Seriously, I'm glad to say that I've been blessed to the point that I could afford a new BMW if I so choose. Yet I'm the happy owner of a 97 v6 with a twice-rolled-over odometer.

Hey Rhouse -- nice post. I enjoyed reading that. I am not the type who likes to pin point other drivers like this, or stereotype, but alot of BMW owners really do fit these descriptions and mindsets. I see these people at work (I work for a huge company with a multi level parking lot, so lots of different cars). At home when I get into the elevator with a BMW owner, or the owner of another expensive "elitist" car, they are usually the anti-social folk who have trouble cracking a smile or saying hello. They have their nose up in the air and don't quite like to associate with the folks that don't dress like them. I know this sounds crazy to some others, but dammit its true.

On an possibly related note, read the following article aout Porsche owners.

mmmm Carbon Metallic black M5 [img]graemlins/love.gif[/img]

I don't notice the million people driving silver 3 series bimmers everyday to work, but I do notice the 17 year olds driving mercedes or bimmers because it irritates me (aka jealous).

I think a lot of the people don't care about how they drive just that they are a euro luxury sedan and its a status symbol. I drove the new 5 series and thought it was a piece of crap (not to mention they are ugly as sin now).

Most around here are dicks. It is fun to show them how performance there car really isn't.

Well.... if this comment was at Mercedes (but I know it was to BMW) my response:
SL65 AMG 604 HP 738 TQ
CL65 AMG 604 HP 738 TQ
S65 AMG 604 HP 738 TQ
ML63 AMG 510 HP 476 TQ &lt;-- truck
R63 AMG 510 HP 476 TQ &lt;-- cross between minivan and truck
S55 AMG 493 HP 516 TQ
S600 493 HP 590 TQ
E55 AMG sedan 469 HP 516 TQ
E55 AMG station wagon 469 HP 516 TQ

To name but a few ;) </font>[/QUOTE]Exactly why I didn't say anything about MB. Don't get me wrong, you can get a fast BMW, but most people that drive them don't.

When I had the vette I could pick on ANY of them around here with absolutely no competition. I found it sad that they spent so much money on their cars (and yes, they thought they were fast...esp. that z4... [img]smile.gif[/img] ...nope )
