    I try not to talk about my e30 too much, people tent to scoff at an 18yo with a clean "BMW". A clean e30 will always look newer and more expensive to the novice, than it really is...

    I get all the usuals about the reverse hood, 6cyl, RWD, check panel ("what's that??"), etc...

    A mate of mine at uni, was complimenting me on my car, and how nice it was etc, and telling me how he has always loved e30's, and was looking into buying one. I remember him telling me about this "sick" one on ebay that had a full turbo r34 skyline engine in it, that he was thinking about buying.

    I knew the car he was talking about, early model bronzit 318i turned sr20det. drums, std shocks, comfort seats, the werkz.
    I rolled my eyes in my head and played dumb, sometimes I can't be fucked trying to explain these things to people, most of the time they think they know whats going on, and will refuse to believe otherwise...

    However every once and a while it's good to let of some tension and give someone a good talking down to.
    Ignorant people are fun to mess with though too. Nice new sig BTW, lots better than the old one IMO.

          if 0-60 in 10+ seconds is quick, then, yes, your car is quick.

            True.
            I'm just going to put it out there,
            i was talking to my pal from a while back and he told me his girlfriend bought a 2008 325i. we talked for a while and then he said "yea, it sucks tho, if it were rwd i think it would be alot faster.!"
            i said "really? fwd huh? too bad BMW doesnt make fwd cars! lol"
            he said "dude, ur such a dumbass. all the 4cyl bmw's are FWD!!! i thought u were a bimmer enthoooosiast!"
            i just said "ok" and let him think he was right. no need to correct an asshole, just let him continue on thinkin he right until he learns hes not and thinks about the time i told him he was wrong and how he made an ass of himself. lol
            damn. stuff like this is really funny when u think about how often it happens

            I don't believe your friend has a girlfriend.
            It's just not possible. It is more plausible that you have beaten a mustang in your 318 i think.

              The only thing i get is people assuming all 3 series are 4 cylinder cars.

                How about one not quite so stupid?

                My wife just had rotator cuff surgery and we went to visit the physical therapist. The PT said she had just recently returned from Germany where she picked up her '07 325is. She said she had to wait until october to get a 6 speed. This was her 3rd BMW...2002 first, then '90 325is, now the '07.

                We were busy doing the whole "recover from surgery" thing, so no big discussion.

                Later in the week wifey came home and said the PT asked her what a "Roundel" was.

                      A lady at my work was telling me how awesome one of her old cars was because she didn't change the oil for 5 years. Mu response was "Oh wow that's great"

                              Not that I'm thinking about it - when I was a noob I had a brake shop tell me that they couldn't fix the brakes on my 2002 because it required special tools. I told them I had them in my trunk - I went and got a 17mm and a 10mm box wrench and said "Here ya go!"

                              Needless to say, I ended up doing it myself.
