If you drive a nice car people will always be jealous and hate. But those people would be the first to buy such a car if they had the money.

Sorry, but it's comments like this, particularly with the added "text speak", that reinforce the stereotype that BMW drivers are arrogant and ignorant douchebags.

For those who don't know what a Section 59 is, it is in play when a vehicle is being used in a manner that causes alarm, distress or annoyance or for careless or inconsiderate driving...

last night i was driving and had a car loaded with kids under 18 years old pulled up on me with their silver scion tc. They threw it in neutral and rev'd their engine and asked me to race. i simply looked over with a smile and rolled up my window. no rude comments or remarks and they just sped off to bother someone else.

but back to your topic, i get glares from men all the time because they are hoping out of 95 toyota camry's. They seriously glare at me and shake their heads. Im sure they think my daddy bought my car but whatever they can think what they want.

who cares if you get funny looks, get rev'd on, or messed with....quit looking for it and you will probably stop seeing it


amazing how many threads we've seen lately with this topic/attitude, I guess it's due to the amount of CPO'd e60's

and +1 with swajames
