Don't wanna sound like an asshole but doesn't it sometimes get really annoying when you meet someone new and all they do is talk about your car..

I just talked with a guy for about 25 mins about my car, never met him before.

I don't mind. He thought it was an M3 at first. He also thought it cost $75k.

that depends on what kind of talk.

if it turns out to be "oh, that's cute", then NO...

People think I drive an M3, just because I have an Mtech kit. They ask me "Is that the new M3?!?! Looks hot!!!"

If it's a girl, I welcome it

If it's some dude who doesn't know shit about cars I get annoyed.

One guy thought my E92 was a "racecar"

I was just at the dealer today and I was talking with the guy who sold me my car. We were standing about 5 feet away from it when two ladies walked past with their SA and both commented to themselves (not knowing the car was mine) what a good looking car it was. I've gotten random compliments from other people as well. Most seem to be women, though a few guys have complimented me as well. One though it cost $60K+.

I don't mind at all, its fun talking about my car to others.. Until I meat a total tool and they start talking about some ridiculous shit like I bet that thing is fast, but it probably can't hang with my RXS S. Or nice car, is it a 525i? ... (This was a 530i owner). Or Your car is pretty, .

first of all, lol, meat.

second, i agree about the tool thing.

story time:
so i'm waiting at this park to pick up some friends, and this previous body style mustang gt pulls in the park and drives to the opposite side. he rolls down his windows, eyes me and my car (i'm chillin outside with a stoge), then rolls his window up. he picks up his friends, but he's still just hangin there. i eventually pick my friends up and head out.

then the mustang pulls out behind me.

i thought this guy could be one of two things: either he's done some sort of F/I work (like a whipple s/c) or internals and he'll own me, or he just has exhaust and he's gonna look like a tool if i race him.

anyways, i didn't race him then. i just left because we had shit to do and places to go. he and his like three other buds are following me and telling me to roll my window down. so i do that and they call me a pussy for not wanting to race. i ask if he's done anything other than exhaust. he says no. fuck it, i'm down.

he tells me to race from this red light to the sign that's about an 1/8th mile down the road. light goes green, fuckin owned. not even a race (and he has four guys in his car, and i've only got three, what was he thinkin). i dunno. i thought it was funny because they did the loser fly-by with their hands covering their faces.

they were hot shit two minutes ago with their loud ass v8.

There is this cute girl at my work that asked me about my car when I first bought it. After I got new rims she mentioned how she noticed the new wheels one day, which surprised me since I usually don't think girls notice stuff like that. I thought that was cool.
Then there is this old man at my work who always talks my ear off and still thinks I drive a G35 and constantly asks me about it. I don't even want to tell him that I have a BMW now or else he won't ever shut up.
