I think it has a lot to do with status. The whole reason why we have so many e30 on the road today, is because so many people bought them back in the day. Those people could have easily afforded Nissan/Datsun, but they bought a BMW. Don't compare enthusiast crowd with your average car shopper.
New car shows status regardless of what it is. Clean looking car shows status no matter what year it is. It's pretty much they way things are.
You can walk into a bank wearing a suit or pajamas. I like pajamas too, but I wouldn't want to live in my apartment forever. When someone asks what you drive, and you say a BMW, people will not deduct that you bought your car for $500 and spent a whole lot of time working on it.
Your neighborhood, your clothes, your tats, your car, everything can be used to judge who you are, but just because someone puts a BMW badge on their Ford Escort doesn't put them any higher on the status chart. Just because you drive twenty-twos and live in a ghetto, makes you seem successful only to people who don't know where you "crib" is, not to mention the IQ dump (something I'll prejudge you on).
Every one has done it, that's why you dress up for dates, or shave.

Resizing
Resizing can be done easily using MS paint. Open your picture using MS paint and go to "image" tab and then select "stretch/skew" function or hit Cntrl+W togather. there you can specify the image size according to your size. That is one way of doing it.
thanks

haha - I'm almost 30 and wearing a BMW hat. but I need a haircut and am too lazy to comb it, so I have an excuse. :pMan, this shows the main difference, some people own BMW's and other people DRIVE BMW's. I actually have 2 e30's and an e46. I bought the e46 first, because it was nice and new(at the time). I didn't even know how to change a flat tire at the time. I started doing the BS E46 mods like lights and eyebrows. Eventually i got into Autox'ing and everything changed. After i got my first e30 (325e turbo), my whole world changed. Now i daily drive my M42 e30 and rarely take out my e46. I can see where it all started. The e46 is definitely the date ride but its my least favorite(feels like a pig) and i need to sell it (automagic FTL).
But nothing chaps the ass of the cooch new bmw driver (usually in mid 30s and wearing a bmw baseball cap) then whooping up on them in a dirty 84 325e. And knowing that my car is fully paid for, but who wouldnt want a 60 month finance on a heavy slow car?Leave a comment:
