Far too many posts on here are people hating on others choice of car. Guess what, not everyone wants a racecar with a gazillion horsepower that is not even useful on most roads except the autobahn. Here are some of the regulars

People just buy so and so BMW for the badge. That’s okay. People buy Rolex, Patek, LV for the logo too. Sometimes people just want to feel like they’ve achieved something they aspired to. No need to shit on them

BMW X1 is just a mini…yeah And? Minis are great cars too and X1 is actually one of the best in its class especially with regards to space and that is reason enough to buy it, badge aside

I don’t get why people buy the X2/X4/X6( insert even numbered car here), they are slow, large, less space etc. Again different reasons for people to buy a car. Some of these are actually pretty cars. And some people like pretty looking things.
Also if whatever car is not your thing, just jog on. No need to comment. Literally scroll past!
Argh!
The majority of “performance BMW” owners I meet drive like wusses with the occassional red light race and maybe they go 10 over on the interstate. They will never touch half that cars potential but they needed a badge to feel better.
The BMW 4 Cylinder is plenty of power and fun for 99.99% of the population. If you can’t have fun in a lower HP car you just can’t drive
Very true!
I once got downvoted, because I mentioned that I have as much fun driving my G30 530i vs. my old E39 with a V8.
I’m based in Germany and regularly get the chance to drive my car to its Vmax of 250km/h on the Autobahn… I always wonder how many of the M owners in the US ever managed to go that fast. I assume not everyone takes their car to the track…
