Some people are just clueless.

...ah BMW owners....GOTTA love 'em.....CLUELESS......but RICH!



(p.s. it's only a joke, I appologize to any BigMoneyWaster's on this board...I was sucked into that black hole once myself! )

She did take it well at least.....but that is pretty dumb!

is it just me or are european import owners especially BMW owners just complete arogant asses and think they have the best damn car on the road? man what a bunch of jerks. sure it may be a silly question but it was an honest question. around here and maybe even everywhere, most 30k dollar millionaires run out and buy themselves a 325i right after they get their first job and think theyve got it made and are big time now. i'm not impressed. call me when you can afford a mercedes then well talk about making money

I was returning from cutting firewood one saturday afternoon, and stopped to look at a CL230K at a local Mercedes dealer. Raggedy old F-150, raggedy old Black Lab hanging out the window, wood, saws, wedges, etc in the bed. I looked like crap, and smelled the same.I really thought they would be closed, and I was looking for a car for my wife. A number of salesmen completely ignored me. I finally asked one what my truck would be worth on trade. Without flinching, he wanted to know if the dog was included. I hate it when they out "smart-ass" me.

Trey your right,most are just asses, until you pass and/or lap every M3(older and new) on the track than they just won't talk to you when they find out what i did to the car! notting

But i was passed just once by an instructor in a new M5 but im looking for him it still took him 15 laps to catch me, and never said good job! just stuck his nose in the air and drove off!

BMW owners are dicks.

I've actually discussed this at length with a good friend, also a BMW owner, over a nice Ashton and a bottle of Curtis syrah. Pretty much any group of automotive enthusiasts are clueless idiots, except for a small subset. I usually rag on Porsche owners for being slow and arrogant, but even there you get a part of them that are really quite nice, and know how to drive. There's a great email list for the E36 M3. People on that list are knowledgeable and helpful, and think that people on bimmerforums are idiots. And bimmerfest is even worse.

F-body owners are rednecks from the south that have mullets.

I have passed many an f-body on the track. And I've been de-moralized by a guy driving an e30 (older) M3 (he was actually my wife's AI co-driver for part of a season, and a very fast driver), and utterly annihalted by a guy driving a Honda Civic.

And for what it's worth, I do think I have the best damned car on the road.

Wait a minute Jason, I'm a getto child from NorCal (San Jose) You are one of the nice one's buddy

Most of the time the BMW guys we run with are decent guys. A few turds in the punch bowl, but there are plenty of them driving Vettes too....

Now for Porsche drivers... I bet I haven't met more than 1 or 2 decent guys in the group. Talk about arrogant, dumb...but rich...this is definitely the Porsche guys.

The old joke is so fitting for Porsche drivers:

No no, this is the difference between cactus and BMWs!

Just like any group of people. You need to take a cross-section, and you will always find a mix of good, bad, normal, weird, etc.

ummm HEY!

I am a bimmer owner.
