There has been a bunch of OT threads lately, so i think we should try to keep it all the ot talk in one place. I know the e36 forum rocks, and all the other forums suck big time :bigpimp:, yet we need to stay on topic....

same, most people in my town see the roundel and associate it with money. it's associated with money.. just not the way they think :rofl:
LOL
Most people don't know the value of a BMW, which works out well for us, as we can get cheaper older BMWs and look good doing it.
Yep. I get mean mugged by people all the time. STARE. STARE STARE/

Yea I grew up in small town VA, and I bought my first BMW @ ~$7k, and it was 8 years old at the time. Got all kinds of looks and comments. GF's dad buys her a BRAND NEW ACCORD COUPE for about 23k and no one says a thing. WTF?

Exactly. Got more comments than you would have believed in college about the Jaguar (which I paid $7200 out the door) from people driving brand new Corollas and Civics at 20k.

Also got a lot of comments on my 540i/6 when I was a teller from people driving brand new Accords and Maximas.

Always made me laugh. Reality was, I couldn't have afforded their cars.

Basically it boils down to ignorance. They claim it will 1) ruin fuel economy, 2) cause the car to stall frequently, 3) ruin the engine, 4) insert other horrible things here

What really happens is this; your car goes whoosh when shifting. There's no change in MPG because its just the unburnt fuel getting sent through your exhaust, no more is being used, just the unburnt is expelled. No stalling issues for myself or any others running the TurboXS BOV that I can find searching NASIOC. How can it possibly ruin the engine? Impossibru.

I love the sound, its looks pretty BA, and it'll make me shoot flames :eeps:
Nice, love it man.

Lol, I read the rest oh the questions though, was that like a 4th grade test or something? :lmao:
No it is not a 4th grade test but I think that would make it even funnier watching all the 4th graders get confused when some of their friends start laughing at question 20. It is actually a collage course, ESC102 01 Planet Earth to be precise. If you can believe it in high school I took an easier earth science course. The test had questions like
What is a hole in the ground that lava comes out of?
A. Volcano
B. Hurricane
C. River
D. Sedimentary rock
Plus when you think it can***8217;t get any easier you realize that the three wrong answers always go to three different questions. I got a A without even opening the book. Although I do not think pot was ever an answer to a question.
