The real POSER is the one spending over $50k for BMW, because at that level they are thinking of impressing colleagues and strangers.

Well mofo if you are so rich get a Ferrari, Bentley or Lambo.

That's pretty hilarious.

I've seen guys on here who brag about owning a $50,000 335i E92 tuned to the MAX and how they would never settle for "bottom barrel" BMWs (two posters actually).

Just for kicks, I searched their other post just to see what kind of posters they were.

1) One of them was in the military and RENTING a small apartment.
2) The other was a kid who still lived with his parents.

You can't judge people's finances solely on the car they drive. Some people want to spend their money on certain things (home, nice furniture, savings account for kid's school, etc), and others want to max out their finances for the car they love. I'm not saying either viewpoint is wrong, or less righteous, it's just different strokes for different folks.

As an aside, I have lunch with a 10+ year surgeon every weekend who owns several clinics around Southern California, I met him at church. He drives a Toyota Camry base model. Do you think many people on this board are actually more wealthy than he is because he doesn't own a BMW?

That idiot is only trying to justify the overpriced tag that he paid for the same car that others got for 45k. Im my opinion, if you are paying more than 45k for a fully loaded 3 series, the dealer is having a field day in your A$$.
Conclussion, he is the poser for thinking that paying and extra 5k on his car makes him better than others. What a Loser. If you have the money, and really want to stand out, get a Veyron, if you can afford it.

Man I don't usually comment, but seriously? WTF man....just buy what you want and don't care what other people do. Otherwise you'll always be pissed about something. Oh no, someone with the same car as you is a tool. 5 bucks says they wear the same clothes, what are you going to do about that? (Not aimed at Gonzo lol)

My major complaint is the level of immaturity that this board suddenly has. With the prices of the car coming down, the age base of the e90/92 is getting younger and unfortunately more immature. Not to say all of the people on this board who are in their teens are immature, it's just a lot of recent people are. But, the people who have the least are the ones that try the hardest. Oh well, I guess I gotta find another forum or get a new car.

^ I usually just try and learn and have some fun on here but that quote made my skin curdle....and I am an older man compared to most on here.

The quote guy has made a few more moronic statements that I will just leave alone. Snobish "look at me" type is what I envision. Envision or invision? That one always gets me.

Now, we know why EDUCATION is very important.
It teaches you to be humble and respect other people.

[Crimson92]

my car cost 50k....phew i guess im safe

[kevinbahnz]

I would never pay over 50g's for a 3 series. this is my second 3 series bought them both brand new and I only paid $41k for my 01 330ci and $42k for my 08 335xi. I think I got a great deal. Whoever thinks that the 3-series should be worth $50k, they're the posers. because they're just buying the name. cause we all know they have some quality issues.

[3lusive]

based on these ridiculous ideas, i must be a poser because I bough the mother base car of base cars - 2006 BMW 325i, step for 30k flat.

sike

[Mu Mu]

I look for the best deal with my cars and anything in the price range stated is ridiculous so fvck it Im a poser...who has more money saved in the bank at the end of the day!

[Canyon Junkie]

debadge = not a poser

rebadge non-m to look like m = poser

[josephr25]

How about the posers who tell the world how young they are? By the way I'm 12.

this is pretty fucking retarded
your gonna judge people just because they didn't get certain features?
like you see someone on the road and you see inside his car do you think 'ohh he doesn't have iDrive..i guess hes not cool!' or 'wow no iDrive? I cant be seen around with this guy'
and seriously..a bmw is a bmw
I don't get where you get your shit from

[BMdblU]

OH i thought the bold was what the OP wrote. ah i feel stupid sorry OP

[gonzo]

^ You owe me gas money. I was almost to Arizona on my way to kick your ass. I pulled over to pee and get a Big Red, beef jerky and maybe some of those candy corn things and logged on and read your apology.


I probably should have separated quotes with titles etc....

Edited starter.

[ukthunderace]

LOL! I agree with you Gonzo. I bought mine with sports package, PDC and metallic paint. Paid $38K. Did I buy one to try and "fit in"? WTF does that mean? Do the first couple of guys who responded really think people's dream is to fit in with them and their crowd?

I laugh when I think of a businessman on vacation with his wife in Panama City and the disdain with which he treated some of the locals there. They go to the parasail pier and the guys there strap his wife in and take her for a ride. All the while he looks down his nose at these "common" people. These guys whole job is sitting in the sun on a pier and driving a boat....they are also clearing $250K per year.

Next time you (those who wish the common folk would all buy Hyundai like they are supposed to) are styling your Breitling with your pink shirt and 4 popped collars looking down your nose at those people you think are trying to be like you, consider the possibility that they are laughing at what a douche you are.

[gonzo]

Four shirts anywhere but at the beach?

Board shorts, t-shirt and flip flops for me. And a six pack. And maybe some of those candy corn things. Possibly go have dinner and drinks with the parasail guys that night. Maybe they have some investment ideas to listen in on.

[ukthunderace]

C'mon Gonzo....don't you want to hang out with this guy at the country club?


How can these people take themselves seriously?

[gonzo]

I think the guy in pic is doing that with his collars to try and detract peoples eyes away from his bison sized head.
