Because its a 128i, woman or old guy? Please share your wisdom and enlighten me. :-)
I'm gonna chime in...

People who are 'clueless' in this context can be identified by the amount of sheer neglect they bestow on their cars. I don't know about you, but if a cat walks on my car overnight, it gets cleaned off before I leave the driveway. I take care of my BMW like I have never taken care of a car before. There are Yaris forums out there (used to have one; been there) and to them, we are clueless with our gas-sucking pigs and expensive maintenance.

To each their own, I guess, but when I'm in the market for a 'used' 135 someday, I'm gonna generally want to hunt down the one owned by the clueless guy who never modded it or pushed it too hard before the one that has been owned by an enthusiast who may or may not have done the mods properly and who has possibly pushed the car beyond its design limits (especially during break-in).
