Thanks V. I actually have met Snookie at a local mall here. I got her autograph and my picture with her. Trashy girl.

1. When you sneer at a E class benz.

2. When people have no idea how to put the car in D or R. Wheres the "Prindle" is what one kind girl asked me.

3. When you inspect your car for dings after you have come back from a hard day of work/school/shopping/etc.

4. When you see a BMW merging you allow it to merge.

5. You park next to other E60's.

6. You "jizz in your pants" when you see a E60 M5.
TMI perhaps???

When other people deliberately park so close to you, you can't get into your car.
When you put a scratch down the side of your car because you were fiddling with the i-drive while backing down the driveway (I know, I KNOW!! Stupid.)

That's because 99% of corvette drivers are actually enthusiasts. For some reason I see more chicks/women in BMW's than I do men....

But when you do meet a BMW enthusiast on the road, you know it, and they know it, and there is just a general understanding in the air...an understanding of how awesome BMW's are

Actually met an older guy at Advance Auto Parts today, had a Jet Black 2001 740i with M-Sport wheels... flawless condition...seats looked brand new, paint looked brand new, wheels had ZERO brake dust on them...I talked to him and he said he just hit 30k miles.

When you intentionally take the long way home on a Friday night after work, knowing there's a nice 50mph only on ramp with a nice S curve, and you're doing 70 going into the first apex.

You enter above mentioned on ramp with a nice 'rice rocket' following and he backs off thinking you won't make it. Then pulls alongside at the end and stares as you pull away.

You have to explain why you're pushing the brakes with your hand and starting the car.

When you keep checking the car out after you have parked it.

This should be interesting.
That's me! Haha

My Ride: '04 525i. Bluetooth upgrade, SS brake lines, iPod interface upgrade. Air intake kit, sport suspension, 20% tint. Other: 2001 Audi A4 Avant: S4 suspension, 20% tint, painted calipers, slotted rotors, iPod interface, custom grilles.
Cool

When you just bought the car, and want to take care of it so bad, that you do things that totally don't need to be done. i.e. Bought the car with a fresh oil change, but HAD to change the oil right away just so I could use the hidden reset trick on iDrive to change the oil change interval. Too cool.
