435i woo hoo! what a dumbass

I disagree... What "status" comes with a Toyota Corolla? The best selling car for god knows how long. Clearly not everyone buys cars for the status. NINETY percent of the e30 drivers i see dont know or give a shit that they are driving an e30.

I disagree....everyone who buys a car is aware of the status they will project. Choice + Budget are two main factors with status being either a high priority or low. Let me ask you, what perception does owning a Corolla convey? Are you saying that its absolute? Status/No Status. 90% of the e30 drivers you see bought their cars KNOWING they were buying a BMW, regardless of whether its an E30.

probably has already been quoted but

Oh and lowering an E30? I don't care. It's an old BMW that signifies no luxury or status whatsoever. Do whatever you want to make it look better. Anything helps, I guess. I'm talking about the BMW's that educated, hard-working members of society buy. Not ones you can get for less than a Honda Civic.

what a tool..

It would be hypocritical to say that one does not consider "status" while shopping for a car. We are all guilty of it, some more than others ;)

I hate people that buy cars just for the "status symbol" When I meet new people and the topic comes up on what I drive and I tell them a BMW M3, most of the time their eyes get wide. I tag on "its a really old one" just to make them disappointed.

To me, a 3-er is not a "luxury sedan" its a sports car.

When I drive customers s500, I feel larger than life too, then I realize that my paycheck is spent before I get it and I'll have shit load of fun driving home in my underpowered e30. With grin on my face, I will pull up to a GT40 and rev my engine, and he'll laugh at me and I'll laugh at myself and die a little inside.

But it's only reality, your projected image is what people will think of you.

Somethings are just prewired within us.

You feel larger than life? Haha, that is sad man. It is not pre-wired in us to be superficial like that. It's just a stranglehold that society has on the weaklings.

I could have bought a new BMW a while ago now, but I chose to have an e30 and a pretty old pickup because it meant that I could afford to buy a house. I could seriously care less what some douchebag or a stupid hoe thinks about my car.

thebestlaxer = fail - on so many levels.

this is precisely why I drive a 20 year old car, and not an e36 M3 I could have bought for nearly the same price. And some of those responders weren't much better.

that is a very good reason. i like your logic of thinking. and when i bought my e30 i was never concerned about my status in life. i need to graduate first, get a good job (other than making pizzas), some other things, and then i should worry about status.



wait, just kidding. i dont really care about status. i love what i drive for the reason i bought it.

[Edev]

WHAT? my 20 year old car doesnt have status anymore?! shit.

sorry! to get status, you've got to own a 4 series..DUH!

[Edev]

Yeah, he is seriously dumb. He's some douche bag that bought a BMW solely for the purpose of people thinking he's cool. He probably lives in a shitty one bedroom apartment and spends all of his money on the car and spray tans.

People that just want a car because of what other people will think of them are seriously pathetic. Must have to compensate for something. And he is a prime example of why "all BMW drivers are dick heads".

And I hope that isn't you that is debating with him. The guy with the e30 in his sig isn't the sharpest tool in the shed either.

sadly it is me. i was just getting aggravated. but i did have quite a few laughs. and when i do get all rallied up, i cannot put my thoughts together in one piece. i know, it makes me look just as bad..but some people amaze me with the words they say.

ONE of the main things i simply cannot comprehend is the whole '4' series thing. wtf is this guy thinking?

Holy crap. That forum is full of douche bags. Every side of ever argument in that thread has a dumb ass. I wish I had got into a brand that doesn't have such a poor image and still has quality. Audi?

[Aptyp]

I have been misled by all you r3v assholes. I though my car was pimp and very high class.


Seriously, that thread is not too far away from what happens here. One guy is a pretender, one guy is a douche, other guy is a post-whore. Whole lot of laughing bystanders.

Just imagine a car pull up to a valet 5-star restaurant:

1. e30 with a 20-year old driver
2. e92 with a 20-year old driver
3. flagship BMW with an "older" driver

Somethings are just prewired within us.
