Microsoft Employee's make too much money

[James Crivellone]

I work directly next to microsoft (148th Ave NE in Redmond WA for the locals) and today was the highlight of my day when it came to expensive cars


I saw during my lunch hour


1 M5
1 Z8
3 M3's
6 NEW 911's
2 NEW 911 Turbo's
4 540's (one was driving on a flat tire going 3mph with his hazards)
3 528i's
1 530i
1 e30 318is that was lowered, black
1 e30 325 4 door that parks next to mine at work
6 E46 323i's
2 E46 325i's
4 E46 330Ci's
A few Audi's A6's, an S4, and tons of other audi's, I also saw about 10 Mercedes.


Keep in mind I saw all these cars, driving from 11:30AM to 12:30AM

Plus when I was at the DMV renewing my license I was talking to somebody who worked on the Microsoft Windows Media Center team :p

Jeebus... I saw an M5 and M3 together tonight on the road and thought I had seen a mirage.

Wow.

Note to self: Work for Microsoft.

I've seen 2 sepperate Enzo's on the road, a Gallardo, every Bentley and Rolls out there, Aston's all over the road, wide body 911's, Maybach's, 575's, more 360 Modena's than BMW's on the road....

I used to live in Redmond that damned down is full of rich bitches. All you see is BMW's. hell an old emlemtry classmate of mine who is my age (18 ) is drivng a BMW M couple black on black with tinted windows.

Everywhere you go all you see is brand new expensive automobiles.

Oh and his friend is drivng one of those what 1994 TOyota Supras that is all decked out. yea that goes for about waht 20k if not more. i dont even talk to the kid i was jsut cruising around in the old neighborhood and saw them. I know it isnt there parents car. They drive Volvos and vans

Wow, a BMW hater on this board, WTF?
How exactly do you define "too much money"?
A recent thread blasted someone for making "only $50k" and he's 18 yo!

Edit: I suppose you think I have too much money because I also drive an e30 318is that was lowered, black

Yeah thats it, I'm a bmw hater god I hate it when people make stupid connections.

I was shocked at the TOTAL amount of expensive cars, and the fact that its right next to microsoft makes it impressive.

Hell in Tacoma I have seen 1 Z8, and the occasional M5, in Redmond I see at least several higher end bimmers every day.

So I made a thread about it, ok? simple, jeez

In fact here, to make it more interesting, YES I personally attacked YOU, the one with the black lowered 318is, you clearly make too much money, yes YOU.

I cannot beileve how serious some people treat the internet, my god, internet pissing wars :D

[franz]

I don't mind the thread but I have never heard of too much money and I get defensive when someone says basically "hey look at that nice e30, he makes too much money"


Look, you said people...make too much money, look at all those BMW's (as evidence). How does that not make you jealous of people driving BMW's?

its the fact that I saw TONS of expensive german cars, all coming and going from microsoft.

Would I like to make that much money? sure!

Would I drive an e46 M3/M5/Z8 probably

can I still point it out on the internet? HELL YEAH! :p

Agreed. My friends brother who graduated Princeton last spring works for Microsoft. On top of making killer $$$, they can get xobx games and all software for hardly nothing, if not free! Not a bad deal. Like working for the tobacco companies, but they have nothing to give.

[LikeCDoos]

I must be lucky then, i live right next door to the richest per capita income in America (Rancho Sante Fe). All those cars i see daily when i'm home that is, it makes me sick how much money some of these people have. Another town that is known for rediculiously expensive cars is more near Saul though, it's called La Jolla. That is a great place to go "car watching" ??
