What's The Douchiest Things That BMW Drivers Do?

[Earendil]

Most annoying thing is when other BMW owners ignore different BMW chassis's. ie: e36/e46 drivers ignoring e30 drivers and vice versa

Yeah, I'll give guys in newer cars the :thumbup: and I always get a :what: look in return.

That's because people that drive an E9X don't recognize your E30 as a BMW :)
"Honey, why is the guy in that old volvo waving at us?"

I had to follow up on this and say that a super clean purple E46 M3 gave me a thumbs up around the Seattle center today. I think it was because I blew by him as he sat in a long line of cars on 5th ave N before we both turning left onto Roy at considerable speed. It had nothing to do with my car being pretty ;)

This x10. So Annoying.

Also, people constantly trying to one up other people, acting like they are better than everyone else. Lol

[Wschnitz]

People only caring about their wheels and not the car itself lol, this isn't a BMW driver only thing, tons of people have beat up cars and nice wheels, and im like, isn't that opposite order to have?

That condescending look you get when they find out you're NOT a bmwcca member


Also, the craigslist kids who use the word "rare" to describe the e30 they're trying to sell

The BMWCCA is actually the douchiest thing ever.

I'm pretty sure it's topped by that comment. Do you even understand what the BMW CCA and regional chapters do?

the douchiest thing a bmw owner can do is give a thumbs up back to a vw guy.

Excessive use of Umlauts on stickers, fake euro plates, and written language in general.

Ägrëëd.

But what if you own both...? >.<

I've never come across an E46 driver who didnt rev his engine or try to race me when I'm in my other car. It's really annoying and douche-tastic.

The douchiest thing a BMW owner can do is ignore other enthusiasts, regardless of what make their car is.

Sponser/payfor/organize lots of events

Sponser/payfor/organize lots of events

And one of my favorites, put forth a large insurance policy so that venues can be rented. I believe the cost to rent out Maryhill isn't all that much, but you have to bring a multi-million dollar insurance policy in case you damage the grounds. Individuals can't get that (and certainly don't want to maintain it) but BMW CCA can and does.

For an organization that caters to an above average costing car, their annual fee is small and every event I've been to has welcomed my old ugly looking jalop of a car.

FWIW, I registered for the CCA with the sole purpose of my registration being Maryhill (and didn't even go this year, LOL.)

However, after attending a few events, it's a nice group of guys locally, and while not all of their events cater to the older chassis, there are a lot of informative and interesting topics discussed at each event. I think it's safe to say that I will probably renew my membership next year.
