have you ever punched stupid question e30 guy in the face?

When driving the 750, I've had guys ask me to pop the hood and ask to see the engine because of the V-12 emblem on the back.

Some punk in an Acura parked in the space next to me and said "V12? Bullshit!". I popped the hood, and he walked over, and I said "Today's lesson is brought to you by the number 12"...and then I counted the runners on the manifold "One....twooooo....threeee...."

I've had someone tell me that my car was a 318. If I could go back, I would have punched him.

Haha, thats so odd, everyone asks me when they see my car "Is that an M3?"

And I have to say "no its a 318iS"

Then I cry inside.

the "bimmer beemer beamer" thing pisses me off a bit, but you cant really blame the general public for not knowing what is what.

I see repair shots calling themselves Beemer service or something along those lines with pictures of m3s on their logos.

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.

Or maybe it was more like "Gee, I HAD one of those cars five years ago, and it didn't drive itself...I paid 80 grand for this car and those people in that old 5er are morons."

People always thought my e36 was a new car.
Some lady with an e46 thought my car was 'just like hers'.

My fiance's family won't drive anything but Benzies, and her mom calls EVERY luxury car a Mercedes as a generic term.

Her:"But Nick, you're a MERCEDES owner! They can't do that to you!"
Me: "Actually, I own BMWs"
Her: "EXACTLY!!"
