I find it odd that one of the biggest complaints on these boards is people judging ALL OF US by the car we drive, the Z, yet one of the biggest retorts are "Well BMW drivers are xxx, honda drivers are yyy, and Porsche drivers are zzz."

Judging someone, or a group of people, by the car they drive or the forum they belong to is a bit silly.

Wow dude really? It's statements like this that cause these kinds of useless posts. I'm still a member at m3post and most people know what they are driving. I won't post about anyone here but many people do the same here. All the forums are the same. I've learned that no matter what car forum you decide to join you will always come across the dumb #*@)$*)@*)$*)@)*)@)@)'s that just add to the fire. :stirthepot: We know why we bought the car. Don't need to prove it to anyone else.

I'm pretty sure no matter what car you drive, whether it be a Z, a Ferrari, or even an old clapped out 91 Toyota, someone, somewhere will find a way to make fun of you for what you drive. So just enjoy the ride if it puts a smile on your face, who cares?

I think you need to look in your pants. That's how it works right?

I just read 325i and track in the same sentence. rofl

Montez 03-24-2010 09:37 PM

Most of them know nothing of significance about the Z or its heritage (Z is the icon of Japanese sports cars like the Vette is American), nothing ricey about this pure sports car. Enough said.....

I still don't get why anybody here should care what a dude who drives a BMW 325i thinks about our Z.

Whenever I take my 335i in for service and they give me a service loaner (328i) which has MORE power than the 325i that OP drove, I swear that car IS the defnition of dull. The engine in that car is completely gutless. Please you guys, don't put the 335i and 328i/325i in the same catagory, completely different driving experience. Close to 100whp/torque difference, plus the 335i has much bigger brakes and a great transmission made by ZF, not GM sourced unit like the 325/328i.

You're kidding right? You might want to take a look at what some of the most popular road coursing cars are, right now...Miatas and E30's may as well own the track.

Hate to be the devils advocate, but while I agree the guy is a bit pompous and misinformed...who here seriously thinks the performance-oriented 3-series' aren't fun?

Having spent a ton of seat time in everything from E21's to E92's, the fun to drive 3 series died with the E46...which is a shame. :mad: 335's are amazingly capable cars, but they aren't fun to drive IMO.

j.arnaldo 03-25-2010 02:22 PM

They're two different animals, altogether (categories, that is). Bimmers are more comfort-oriented; Zs are more thrill/sport oriented. Me? I'll stick to my Z!

shabarivas 03-25-2010 02:48 PM

... I test drove a 335i sedan w/ sports package... that thing HAULS ***... now would i trade my Z for one... no way... would I buy one for my wife secretly so i can drive it? probably...

You dont have to hate BMWs if you own a Z... and vice versa... only the man w/ every car in the world should feel like a snob lol... someone will ALWAYS have a better car...in some sense

m4a1mustang 03-25-2010 02:54 PM

What ever happened to the car guy anyway?

Zsteve 03-25-2010 02:57 PM

I would love to have a new BMW




if it was given to me.
