BMW did not create MINI but everyone see the brand as a BMW. MINI purist don't accept the new brand. Same with bentley. VW stripped the soul off the brand and basically used nothing but them name plate. It was their way of dealing with the failure of the phaeton.

I agree, im not talking about the new vws tho, a r32 is cool and all but when it comes to an older cars like the squareback, bugs, and buses those things are pretty bad ass..
pic of my old slammed squareback..

Seriously? This is the company that hasnt accepted the mcpherson strut as an acceptable form of suspension. I'm sorry but I can't believe the engineers behind Benz. We have things in our e30s that a 2002 slk32 AMG that I drove last week doesnt have. It amazes me the luxuries our 20 year old cars have.

And I won't even begin to comment on VW. WWD

Thats true, but im more interested in the sls AMG, sl55, sl63, and cl65. All very beautiful cars with some fun horsepower.. Even though they feel like a fucking boat..
And it is crazy how luxurious our old ass cars can be, I still think its hilarious that my car came with heated seats in 88..

I know their the competitor, but benz truly has some amazing engineers building their cars.

Who makes bently again?

So your saying e36 owners have no effect on your outlook about those cars?

Well from my personal experience iv never not liked someone who drove an e36, because we both share love for the cars.. But that depends because like those e36 retards that were doing donuts in the parking lot at DOCK were idiots.. Mostly everyone knows not to do that kinda shit..
But i see what your saying, because on the other hand, most porsche owners are fucking dicks. And i would like to punch most of them square in the fucking forhead lol

I know that they've been OWNED by VW for the past 10 years or so, but that doesn't give VW the rights to the Bentley legacy. :p

And I was clear not to say Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Audi, or Lamborghini. Even though all those cars may be made by VW, and have VW powerplants, they aren't truly VWs.

All the strictly VW models are weak IMO. They've made some great motors, but fail to put the power to the proper wheels. If more VWs were AWD or even RWD, I would like a lot more of them.

Land Rover was made by both BMW and Ford, but they were never Fords or BMWs. In order to take ownership like that, you need to be the one that created the company name and image. ;)

And i agree, a lot of the vw's are underpowered and just kinda remind me of a geo metro. But the cars themselves have a lot of soul and history. And i dont know about you but i would love an AWD 300hp gti. Nothing wrong with that.

Second that!

[accident]

VAG makes Bentley :)

[einstein57]

There are plenty of Benz's I'd take over most VWs.

That's why the song goes: "Bimmas, Benz and Bentley" not " Bimmas, Benz, and Volkswagen"....

FWD = FAIL

Honestly, all you guys are fucking crazy. The people driving the cars do not effect how i like the cars at all. lol I honestly fucking love Benz's. I know their the competitor, but benz truly has some amazing engineers building their cars. And i started out with a vw wayyyy back in the day, so ill always have love for them...

Most of us are fans of all things german. Except maybe mercedes. Lol. As long as the owner is cool that's all that really matters.

And for loaning us your REAL megaphone......lol, very happy that you got to see how chilled most e30 owners are. Yes we will usually bash on a VDubber but if your just a good person like yourself, we don't really give a fuck about what you drive. ;)
