Who is stupid question guy?, Is it the guy on the street that tells you your e30 looks alot like a Datsun 510.

My boss at the tire store actually thought BMW stood for British Motoring Company...

I never punched him in the face, but I did launch two big plastic trash cans across the bays whilst demanding a raise. Got the raise too!

My friend still thinks BMWs are chick cars and POS.. but he will never tell me in person... only over the internet... drives me crazy. He drives a 94 RX-7....TIME BOMB... those things are fucking POS.

I was close. While taking a break at a drift event, I noticed someone looking at my car. I walked over and aksed if he had one. When he responded that he did, I asked what he used it for. He said that he "races." I then asked what kind of racing. Looking a little uneasy and making a shifting motion, he said he street races. I asked what he had done to the car. All he had gotten to was stripping it, BUT he had big plans for an engine swap and suspension and was going to do it himself. His only question for me was how I got my center console out. Apparently he couldn't figure out how to get his center console out. After he got that vital information, he walked away.

Sounds like some people we've had on here.

Fuh Race. I've never really had anyone ask me a stupid question.

[mikeedler]

i would love too, what a bunch of dumb ass questions!

[Jscotty]

You should have given him one of those printed flyers so that he could come to the site and get flamed for his stupid questions.

Funniest was probably this one lady at a shopping center, she came running (I mean running) over to me as I was getting into my car. She excitedly asked "Is that the new 3 series!?!". I laughed a bit, told her it was 20 years old and took it as a compliment. My dad says he's gotten the same question a few times whilst driving his cabriolet.

Other than that, I've had people argue with me that my car is a diesel or a fwd, as if they would know better than I would.

haha no one has a clue. i love it.

Not surprising as design trends are eventually comming back around to the square boxed look again. Once I get my E30 painted up really nicely I am going to make up a fake window sticker and put plastic over the seats with some barcode labels to make it look like a "new" car to see how many people will stop and stare.. and of course some know-it-all schmuck is going to make up some story about how BMW decided to bring back this particular style..

I stopped to get petrol at a small country town once and this old guy said "oh, Mercedes... thats a bit flash!"

My friend and I used to practice driving with our knees and our hands out the sunroof so this one day some guy was next to us in an E38, we were in the E34 at the time. So we explained to him at the stoplight that its one of those brand new BMWs that drives themselves, BMW just decided to go retro with it because though they are looking towards the furture of automobiles they want to always bring back classic BMW design. He kind of had that look of "I paid 80 grand for this and I'm driving it myself like a sucker" as we let the car drive us away.
