LOL got a thumb-down.

Xens · 11-13-2005, 02:55 AM

Tonight on the Bay Bridge by an E46fanatic (seen his car in the showroom). He rolled past me in the right side lane, as he passed by he dropped his window, gave me a thumb-up and turned it up-side-down. He then looked at me with an evil grin and went off with the traffic flow. Pretty hilarious stuff, gave me and gf a good laugh.

ON325i · 11-13-2005, 03:58 AM

haha, that is comedy.

frankly, that is sad, i dont' expect siblings give each other a thumb down like that regardless of model.

Atty · 11-13-2005, 08:14 AM

If he walks like a schmuck and talks like a schumck...then he's a schmuck.

YYimports · 11-13-2005, 08:42 AM

Haha that he took the time out to roll down his window to let you know what he thinks about your car means he really took notice, and seeing a newer evolution of his car really bothered him enough for him to have to let you know it

cosmosblau · 11-13-2005, 09:48 AM

His thumbs down was realy to himself, because he knows he drives day-old bread.

scottz5 · 11-13-2005, 09:56 AM

A guy in an 05 AW M3 stopped me the other day and told me he loved my car. I would have tradded on the spot. I should have asked if he was down. Yea right I wish.

Just let him know that you think he is #1

There are a bunch of no class "kids" on that forum, I've made a lot of friends there and the majority are a bunch of cool cats, but then you get the ones that run the forum down with their Sh*t don't stink attitudes. . .

E90Post

- crowd here is down to earth, also very helpful

shimshimhada · 11-13-2005, 11:55 AM

LOL, I should do that next time I see an E90, for laughs though.

SCA · 11-13-2005, 12:01 PM

Not surprising coming from an E46fanatic. I used to be one, but I never did any serious/major mods to my E46.

Haha a guy came into my work who owns a Ducati, M5 and a M3 sport.. He said he liked the new 3 series, so i happen to ask him if he'll give me his M3 when hes over it. Hahah he said sure we'll see.. RIIGHT.

Xens · 11-13-2005, 04:03 PM

I thought it was cool, not really a big deal. If he meant the thumb-down, big deal I love my car don't need him to agree with me. If he didn't, that was some very comedy stuff.

Worth a good laugh either way, for his sense of humor or how pathetic he is.

jealousy rears its ugly head in many ways.

LEDZEP · 11-13-2005, 05:09 PM

No class. I wouldn't do that the other way around (to an older gen 3) and don't think others here would either. Very tacky indeed.

Costa · 11-13-2005, 07:51 PM

He was looking for a reaction from you to try and justify his behaviour, which is driven by envy and a feeling of inferiority (pretty sad). Your behaviour is a good example of what anyone should have done in the same circumstances - laugh it off

exactly. Thumbs down? I mean, im sure it was a joke.. but uncalled for. I would never do that to previous generation 3s unless they come out asshole-ish like that.

Haha Lux, you should feel sorry for people like those because they go the extra length to stroke their own ego. It's a sign of low self-esteem.

I admire your maturity.

Me? I would be depressed/pissed for a day or two.

timzerofive · 11-14-2005, 12:24 AM

Haha I would think he did it more as a joke.

I would've been laughing my ass off. Most E46 people I've met straight jock E90's so... They're like dammit, I want the LED lights on my door handle.

magmd · 11-14-2005, 12:26 AM

Agreed...I think he was just being a smart ass.
