How can you tell between a R3V enthusiast and a BMW owner?

[iCleaks]

RV3: You upgrade sound system (to a level disproportionate to the value of the entire car) creating a much broader range of sounds and allowing previously inaudible musical nuances to be heard with great clarity. For the first week, you keep muttering, "Wtf is that noise - wtf do I need to fix now", because of the much broader range of sounds and previously inaudible musical nuances.

I love getting it inspected, I go to a different place everytime. And it is hilarious when they pop the hood and then call like 3 others over to open it and then I finally go in and do it and walk out.

-You hear a new noise and instead of fixing it, you turn up the radio

BMW Owner:
-The tires squeel and you bring it to the dealer with a blank check.

r3v: < $20 for an oil change

Todd: > $120 for an oil change

So many of these apply to me. This one is my favorite (I'm not guilty though):-You swap an english saftey check panel, for a german one you cant read.

So true

R3V:



-As you drive by shop windows and bus and tram stops, you stare lovingly at you car (not yourself)

soooooo guilty

BMW owner - worried about valets fighting over who gets to park his car.

R3V enthusiast - worried about valets fighting over who HAS to park his car.

-when watching honda guys tear out their A/C and power steering pumps to 'GAIN HORSEPOWER' and laughing....but then coming to sudden realization that they can swap their motors for new ones for less than 1000$ and becoming slightly depressed

It was probably the reason why I put a radio back on the turbo car. :p

R3V enthusiast (me at least) - mad when something breaks, but secretly excited to fix it and experience the satisfaction of a self-repaired vehicle. (sorry honey, can't go to that dinner, HAVE to work on the car)

- You have a bottle of every fluid in your trunk because secretly you know you're car is fucked at any moment.

You try to convince everyone you know that the e30 is a classic.
