No asshole BMW drivers yet..

Most I've seen around here are women and old men with leather gloves on out for the joy of driving.

And I thought I was the only one.

Apparently indicators are an option on many new cars, as about 50%-75% of the cars I see don't have them. Strange...:huh:

It’s too easy to say BMW drivers are assholes. Id read many times that some bmw drivers got to drive the way they do because of the way they are treated on the road themselves. We didn’t get much hassle when we had our 5-series so I didn’t really give this much thought… until more recently. My neighbour’s dad sells cars for a living, and they often have nice shiny new cars in their drive. I went for a cruise with his son, who’s around my age, so i could test drive a 330ci sport convertible (i was contemplating whether or not to buy one - a coupe) and have also driven their M5, and from these experiences, let me tell you this:
1. we got shitty looks from taxi drivers / the infamous white van man / and most tellingly, professionally dressed people in decent cars
2. no one would let me out of junctions, especially in the convertible
3. i got cut up on several occasions, which never happens in my Golf
4. finally, i was called a "fucking fag" at a traffic light by some idiot next to me, which let me just say im far from it, along with "cruising in daddy's car, are we?", which funnily enough was fairly accurate, but totally uncalled for...

… overall the pleasure of driving these two wonderful cars and the looks we got from chicks - - easily overcame these irritations but they are certainly there, and they manifested themselves almost every time I drove the cars or was going somewhere with my neighbour… he has a 320 coupe and tells me he gets that kind of crap all the time. My colleague at work has an E46 M3 and gets a lot of shit from people on the road, which thankfully he can put the hammer down and they simply disappear… which probably pisses them off even more… the truth is there are a lot of assholes out there, some bmw drivers and some not, but what I do know for sure is that there is a lot of jealousy towards bmw owners, that is very difficult to dispute… and you know what, it’s a bitch to deal with.

Well I know that certainly assholes are not confined to BMWs, second and probably far more deadly are asshole woman drivers in SUVs (And yes I can honestly say that everytime I've seen an SUV speeding and cutting people off without using the blinkers - it was a woman behind the wheel)
But seriously, assholes seem to be attracted to BMWs (or BMWs turn their drivers into assholes) Nearly everytime I've been in an accident trying to make a left turn, it's been because some asshole in their asshole BMW suddenly apears from behind the slower moving traffic, and then speeds at least 20 miles over the limit right when I begin turning into the intersection (and this exact same thing has happened so often it's begining to get creepy) Perhaps he was escaping from people who were insulting him for driving a BMW? - who knows? I just know that they were driving like assholes.

Q: what's the difference between a porcupine and a BMW?

A: on a BMW, the prick's on the inside..

ha... ha... ha... anyway...

Not to big of a bastard BMW problem in washington. I know what it's like to get shit for driving a nice car. I washed my dad's jag, went for a drive, and was yelled at by some guy in a mid 80's hyundai for being a daddy's boy or some shit like that. like crayzayjay said, uncalled for.

it seems to me like a jealousy issue. i'm just sorry the people that do that kind of thing can't get off their ass and earn themselves a BMW. it might be tough, but it's not impossible.

[crayzayjay]

Its stupid to think everyone's jealous of BMW - the company and the people who drive its cars - but look at it this way, i just went into a non-bmw forum here on AF and deleted yet another idiotic "BMW - A car for people who no self respect! ! ! ! " thread that was bashing every bmw driver in the world... this kind of hate doesnt materialise without a significant amount of jealousy towards something/someone. That in my view is indisputable

[2strokebloke]

Perhaps for many people, but my dislike materializes out of just how little respect the majority of BMW drivers give other drivers on the road, which is not only stupid, but can be dangerous (the asshole who didn't yield when he was supposed to could have easily caused a large accident!)
Being jealous of a BMW owner would seem to be a stupid reason for not liking them in general, but people who drive like assholes just piss me off.
