I've had everything from a 328 to an X5. Sometimes they'll give me a 4, but if I have clients in town I'll ask for something with 4 doors.

But hey it's the highest number BMW offers so in his chimp like brain it means that it has to be the best.

I take it the 760, Alpina B7, i8 and M6 where not quite in his price range. He's probably not balling as hard as he thinks he is.
true story.

Last year, I saw this old 50-something Chinese mainlander park his new Alpina B7.

I incorrectly thought, this guy must know cars to select the Alpina B7 LWB. He must be a car guy....so I went up to him and had a quick chat.

I said: "I like your car, how do you like it?"
He said: "I know, it's the most expensive BMW".

I was dumbfounded. He couldn't give 2 fucks what the car was, but that it was at the time the most expensive BMW he could buy in the US.

I smiled politely and walked away. I still see him putting around in the B7 from time to time and I just chuckle everytime I see his smug smile behind the wheel.

When I see people like that I just wonder how they got that far in life. Money can't buy brains. People will always be like that.

Not that it matters, but I drove all the was from Pittsburgh to get my car from them. Love those guys.

As for the douche - I'd be the same way. No way would I be seen in a 7 series.

Haha... Driving a chauffeur's car. People! 7-series aren't meant to be driven by yourself.

5 Series / E Class / A6 is where it stops for personal vehicles. Some folks... Anyone driving a 7 Series reeks of new money. Unless you live somewhere like rural, spacious, countryside Georgia or Kansas, there's absolutely zero reason to look like a fool piloting your own 7.

If you see a dude driving a stretched limo, would you think he's ballin ? Or would you assume he's a chauffeur? Same logic applies here.

I recently saw 7-series with customized licensed plate with "footdoc."
It looks more like a boat than a car.

We were behind him and was just simply rofl'ing.

Quite a lot of hate for the 7-series. I was actually thinking of one when I get rid of the X5 next year. I test drove one and I was very comfortable. I think with the M Sport kit they look very good.

I don't get loaners cause I'm cheap and do my own service. Plus my car is close to 10 years old so it doesn't go anywhere near a stealership.

However when I had my 335 with "free" maintenance I remember I took it once to a different dealer I did not usually go to and they only had BMW loaners if you bought the car there. If you didnt they still gave you a loaner but it was from Hertz or whatever. Anyways I handed them the keys to my 335 they handed me the keys to a minivan, a fucking sweet minivan. Thing had like 3 rows of seat, led lighting all around, led strips on the celling, this fucking thing was like a night club!

Coming from a Yaris and jumping into an f13 m6, shoot- I'd be happy as shit with a 3 series as long as it has AC and a full tank of gas.

Why? Because it's a damn LOANER car for a couple days. They even have it plastered all over the rear window.

I might troll a few people and say I traded in the m6 in for a 3 series though (like Nkc/Bimmette/92mil )

I've refused a bright green Enterprise Kia Rio when my dealer was out of their own BMW loaners. It was like a tin can and didn't seem safe. I was nice about it and they brought me a nice safe Ford Focus.

I want to find that Kia Rio and park it in Gary's driveway.

Indians and Asians are all about material status. I'm Polish and I know a lot of Polaks are Russians are like that too. I swear it's like a disease.

He wouldn't be caught dead in this forum...what would his friends think of him posting in a forum that has a 1-6 series section? Nothing under 7 for Gary!

Doubt it..

Gary should be glad that BMW does not sell models based on ones penis length or else he would not have many options to pick from.
