If I can see the exhaust, I can probably see the badge, too.
Besides, I wasn't asking for tips on how to be an expert in identifying 3-series BMWs, but thanks, anyway.

I can see the exhaust tips from further away than I can read the badge, so thats what I use to tell the difference. We've forced you to become an expert in BMW 3 series, lol.

Well over like 90% of the beamers are debadged so you HAVE to look at the exhaust to know the difference.

which are most beamers above the 320, according to most people it is for streetracing so the opponent is thinking "lol a 320" while its actually a 335 or whatever they make.

but then again I saw a 550 a week ago.

My mom was talking to some people from our village and they thought the Z was a porsche

There is a guy at work who swears he passes a 390z everyday on the way to work, I think he needs glasses

Waiz · 03-06-2011, 01:50 PM

Not everyone is a car person and knows what they're looking at.

Some lady said to me the other day "Did I park to close to your Porsche?" I didn't bother correcting her

SophiaZ · 03-06-2011, 02:19 PM

I only got the 350z thing once I think. Ive more often gotten " Is that a Porshe?" i usually say " No, its better IMO". But I also get alot of "What kind of car is that? Its beautiful and the headlights are awesome" i say" a Nissan 370z and Thank you and I know haha"

whoLEEoh · 03-06-2011, 03:31 PM

i get the porsche thing a lot and i assume its because of the nismo rear/wing lol and i love it haha

cfweber · 03-06-2011, 03:36 PM

"I like it. What is it?"

Vegitto-kun · 03-06-2011, 03:57 PM

I never knew till now either. I just thought people were spelling it different since they all sound the same.

Actually, "bimmer" is pronounced with the sound of a short i, while "beemer" is pronounced with a long e.
"Beamer" is not really a correct spelling of either word.

Boston Chapter BMW CCA - Bimmer vs. Beemer

Yes, I'm bored.
