If you're in MI and drive a black 545i with tints, and were on Hall road last night around 10pm - you're an idiot.
I dont understand why people act like hard asses to other e60 owners. The guy literally had my car's twin and was about a millimeter from my bumper,
acting all hard ass, circling my car in a confrontational manner.
When I see other e60s, i'm appreciative of the fine vehicle and most of the time i get the head nod - both knowing we're driving fine vehicles.
Does anyone else face such adolescent behavior from a perhaps younger demographic?
Sorry - just had to vent a bit. Too much douchebaggery out here in Detroit.

In Detroit, New York, Washington D.C., LA and in some large European cities you just must not drive into certain areas.
As a white man I do have some experiences in the above named cities + Paris, France.
