Default Snooty BMW owners

1M versus a Nismo 370z - Page 2 - BMW 1 Series Coupe Forum / 1 Series Convertible Forum (1M / tii / 135i / 128i / Coupe / Cabrio / Hatchback) (BMW E82 E88 128i 130i 135i)

Stumbled across this thread today doing a simple google search. Never ceases to amaze me how snooty bmw owners can be! They remind me of apple fans

reading through the thread I'd say most of the posters have a fair deal of respect for the z car. They really are two different animals a better comparison is the bmw z4 coupe

Ehh I wouldn't get caught up in people posting on the "INTERWEBZ". Just by reading someone else own opinion is nonsense to me. Unless its something from a pro-rated car reviewer or comparison test (Car and Driver, Road & Track) with no bias, maybe I'll look into it. I could care less what others think.

They didnt really bash the 370z at all, worst they said is calling it a boy racer image, and Nissan isnt as classy"

Isnt the 1M cost alot more?, i dont think its ugly at all, ide rather get an E90 M3 all day though.

Most of them seem pretty reasonable to me. They are on their forum because they are enthusiast so you might get a few skewed opinions.

Different strokes for different folks.

"So in short, the Nismo 370z doesn't hold a candle to the 1M, nor does the 370z."

Lines like that make me

Psch........ Those people are effen tools aka douche bags. You know they are pillow biter's & love playing pitch & catch.

The BMW 1 Series looks like a GD down syndrome car with serious problems. The 1M is cleaner looking than the regular 1 Series, but a little less goofy looking. In the end BMW will have more problems than a Nissan will. If you were to stop & think & do some research you will find that Nissan is a hell of a lot more reliable of a car than BMW. I like the 1M & I love the M3, but I cannot see myself spending 80k on a brand new fully loaded M3 (that is effen crazy).

In all honesty I really doubt that you can compare a 1M to a Nismo. The two are in different classes completely.

BMW owners are just like any other group of owners. Some winners, some losers, etc.

Maybe so. It seems to me that most BMW's must come from the factory without working turn signals though.
