I don't really care what people think. But I do find it hard to be inconspicuous though when the road is a sea of silver japanese cars and I'm in an Indianapolis Red M5 all polished and clean.. 
I want to see it.

Hey Westcoast, where are the pics of your ride so we can all see it standing out from the crowd? I am pretty new here but I went into your profile and didnt see where any pics were posted. Are there any in some other thread?

All other drivers are inferior. They are peasants on the road. I ran over a few of them today in my M5. Felt great!

had another encounter today.... someone wouldnt let me merge as the road went from 2 to 1 lane. I am originally from NY so i was able to douchebag it up and make him let me in, however this ugly guy and his fat wife talegated me when the road opened back up to two lanes (there was nobody else on the road) i noticed in my pass side view he was speeding up and rolling his window down. i locked up my brakes because once i had someone throw a handul of change at my car (like the third day i had it) he passed right on by and then pulls over... i just kept going, his wife probably would have put a hurting on me...

I won't park my car in the doctor's parking spot outside the ER for fear one pissed off drug seeker will key my car when I don't write him/her a script for narcs.

Here is just a tidbit: http://www.epinions.com/content_960077956
So, why do people hate BMW drivers? Are we truly super-pricks or what?! Christ.
I have to admit, however, I laughed my ass off reading the above paragraph...

Its true, I've never been tailgated so much until I owned a Bimmer. Just yesterday this jag off in a huge pickup truck was riding my ass for the better part of 2 miles and the road was wide open. Then again later the same day I was in front of a pickup that was driving way too slow and clearly on purpose. It just chops my hide that people do this kinda crap.

What's with all this rubbish about BMW drivers thinking they are better than other drivers. Its simply not true. We don't think we're better... we KNOW we're better

It's not us, it's the 3 series drivers that give BMW drivers a bad rep!
Just yesterday, I was doing a modest 80 on the freeway (same speed as the traffic around me) when this car zooms and zig zags around me and the traffic in front of me doing probably 120+ like he was on a race track in Germany...it was a 3 series driver!
