He's entitled to his opinion. I still think BMW owners tend to be snobbish - even though I own two. Some people buy a 3 for driving, and some for showing.

i didnt even read this. you could leave whatever comments you want, just keep in mind these people live, and breath attention, and they start these websites just so people will comment, perferablly in a negative way about what they say. leave him alone, and hopefully he will go away.

I hope that I am never so bored as to read a strangers blog. Even if I were in prison I think I would have more to do than that.

But aren't forums the precursor to blogging?

Anyway - looks like noone will or wants to read this thread so noone respond to this thread anymore so it will die.

Sorry for posting it.

Don't be sorry, I don't think anyone was pissed at you. Forums are at least interactive and most members have a common interest. I think most blogs are just egotisitcal rants... not altogether unlike my posts here come to think of it... Okay, you got me.

Although the article was poorly written (by a 16 yr old?)
They have a point there.

Not a cheap car here though, 330i is a half a million HK$, and 99% of time i pass through my parking lot, I saw a sparkling graphite always parked still there.

318i E46 , the cheapest and the worse BMW you can find, and it is 330K HK$ (40K US$). This car swamped the city for no reason but the BMW badge. A Lexus ES300 for the same price would be 20 times better for value of money.



swamped this city

F* this a-hole. When (and if) he grows up, he'll realize that he's a closet case and that because his mommy dropped him when he was 8 months, he wrote a lame-ass blog entry. If I seem him in his Prius, I'll leave him in my rear view.

Don't feel bad... I thought it was a funny link. What everyone should do is jam his server with sh!t.

They do love the attention... but even a true attention whore will grow tired of the endless bashing.

Actually, it was well written. Nonetheless, I disagree with some of his generalizations.

One thing is for sure. He's an attention whore, so it's best to ignore him.

here's what i posted on that site: maybe you dont have a bimmer because YOU are a loser. Most people who buy bimmers are fannatics of the things BMW offers. The reason why most people buy 3 series is because it's the most agile and nimble car. Shoot I could have bought a G35, E350, or even 5 series but i didnt. WHy? Because I dont like them. And since you're bashing a car which you know nothing about, i dont like YOU! Maybe YOU"RE the loser who lives at home with his parents and drive a beat up freaking pinto. Maybe you're jealous of all the 3 series owners out there. You could also be tired of getting passed by all those owners so you thought you would do something about it just to make yourself feel better. I've got an idea: why dont you trade in your pinto and get a 3 series???

i dunno just felt like people shouldnt think of 3 series owners as just buying the car for the badge...

If some guy spit that garbage at me in person, I would seriously have to restrain myself from bludgeoning the numbskull.

And yes it isn't in the US, market but this guy has obviously never encountered/heard of the 1-series.

I disagree with some of his generalizations, but I think he has a point (to some extent). There are many teens that buy E36 and E46 318s, 323s, and 325s, debadge them and think they're the sh*t. It actually gets annoying sometimes when I hear OoOs and Ahhs when a person buys a used base-model bmw, especially a 3-series
