Reason is that around here all the yuppie poseurs (and their wives or girlfriends) buy one, usually a 3 series, when they get a bit of money and then proceed to drive them like jerks, aux lights on all the time, yapping on their cell phones, and generally annoying me (and I presume lots of other people too).
So, my analysis, all BMW owners are jerks is probably wrong, but there are enough anecdotal examples to draw a conclusion that a lot of them are. The other, all jerks are BMW owners, is probably incorrect too, as it is mostly jerks with enough money. But I have several friends and neighbors who have 3-series BMWs, and they are not usually jerks, but I have caught them driving with their aux lights on, and when I tell them about it and how annoying it is, they seem to understand and alter their behavior accordingly to be good citizens. And besides all that, I think it is just a necessity that if you are a Benz owner, you have to trash talk BMW owners, even if you are both, you can still do it when you drive one car or the other, and you get double the fun! And don't even get me going on them Porsh owners... --R ned kleinhenz wrote: > Sorry guys, I don't understand some of this stuff. > How can Mercedes owners disparage about BMW owners? > My little secret confession - I own an old MBZ diesel for comfort and > utility. > And I own an old BMW .. for fun. > The first time I drove one of those nimble little rockets, I decided that > some day I gotta git one a doze. > But people who drive any other brand of car seem quick to assume a jerk off > attitude by anyone who drives a BMW. > It is the ultimate of ludicrous to read it on a Mercedes list.
