What you lookin at?

Stopped at a traffic light today with the top down, enjoying the sunshine when a couple crossed the intersection in front of me. I suddenly noticed the man was eyeing my car. The exact same way that I was eyeing his wife!

They attract attention from everyone. I could feel someone staring at the car from my left but the car was a bit back so I couldn't tell what they were driving. When the light changed the car passed with the driver still checking out my M Coupe - he was driving a Bentley Continental GT convertible!

I've had a Ferrari F430 Spider stop in my blind spot and the driver leaning his neck over the side checking out my car for about a good minute before speeding off. The same thing happened with a Benz SL63 and a Nissan GTR.

They're all thinking the same thing; That they never saw this car before, they look at the quad pipes and the M badge and start guessing how much HP I have - You can see it in their faces. It's great

(most of them drive 335i, no idea why ... )

I'm sure i'm going to have tons of these situations. Where I live, people don't know squat about cars. In the past month that i've been searching my m coupe. I've kept an eye out and I have not seen 1 single coupe(3.0 or M) in my area. There honestly really aren't that many regular z4 verts in my area. I'm sure no one will know what the hell my coupe is when it gets here.

was at a red light, and you notice that cause we are sitting so far back and our trunks are short that all cars seem to be right up our asses?

So, make it short, was at a red light. This guy was right up my shit brown arse... green light, so I shift up as normal and I pull away as normal... and the fugger in a blue a4 was trying to catch up... so then I slowed down as I'm going 80 on a 60 and he nearly bumps me... dumbass... then he turns to the highway ramp slowing down thinking that I'm going to pull up behind him... wtf... people watch fast and furious too much...

my wheels cost more than his old car... I don't wanna damage my bbs lmr 19's hhahah.

I'm not a very good driver
