My lady and I show up at one of her friend's get-together. I hear a group of guys standing outside on the 2nd floor balcony talking with each other and drinking a few beers:
Guy 1: What model Bimmer is that?
Guy 2: I think it is a 3 series.....
Guy 3: No, it's a one series BMW...
Guy 2: Oh, never heard of those, about how much do those run
Guy 3: I think about 24 or 25k.......
Guy 1: Oh really, that's not bad at all, I should look into those.
My lady just looks at me and says: "Be nice"
For the most part though, I get compliments on it all the time....more so when I changed out my tail lights to the LCI Blacklines, people really seem to dig those.
