My opinion is that 90% of the first owners of BMWs are the snooty type, with 10% actually appreciative of something other than the car's prestige. Once the car is on its second or third owner, the numbers seem to reverse - 90% are enthusiasts and 10% are badge grabbers. YMMV and if you own a BMW and disagree, please just put yourself in the percentage you want.
That's so true -- well said.
By the way, this is an excellent reason to swallow your pride and be sure to be nice to all those pricks who buy new BMWs. Stroke their ego even.
"Wow that's a great M3 you have there, you look great in it! You just better sell it at when it hits 75k miles for almost nothing, because I hear those engines blow up at 80k miles and cost a MILLION dollars to replace. Oh and I might know someone who will buy it from you. Did you hear they have the new M5 in at Leith BMW? You should go look at that, it's sweet! I hear it will make your penis bigger. Call me when you get tired of it."
