BMW look like Honda Civic??

Dvdman · 08-18-2010, 09:11 AM

I just got my 08 335xi last year. My wife told me my car looks like a Honda Civic (WTF). I know most cars come off the same line GMC Envoy and Trailblazer or Nissan and Infiniti. Even though you cannot compare a BMW to a Honda they do looks alike. I also noticed a comparison between a Mercedes 300 or 350 to a Honda. Is there something there??

I don't see the resemblance.

SIRKGM14vg · 08-18-2010, 09:58 AM

Your wife is jealous. What does she drive?

Girls have thought my accord was a mercedes as well. Hey, at least they think it's a luxury car! I've heard stories of people thinking an Acura NSX was a sooped up civic.

Divorce her she hasn't got a clue...

Yeah most women are extremely ignorant when it comes to automobiles. You might as well be asking a chimp what they think. Most will see a 370z and think it's vastly superior vs. X because it "looks" faster, etc, etc.

i'd say that 1 out of 10 women can even tell one type of car from another at a glance.

mine is 1 of those 9 that points at other blue cars in the parking lot like "is this one ours?" and i'm like "are you retarded?"

Yup, a hot blonde got into my car and says "is this a Mercedes ?"

You need to smoke something strong to think a 335i looks like a Honda Civic.

It's not limited to women. One of my male colleague at work (who owns an E36 328i) thought the 335i had a 3.5L engine as opposed to the 3.0L engine in the 330i.

Lol at least she has some knowledge...back with the e36 and e46 the last two letters meant the engine size ..her 328 is a 2.8 lol ..

Whats even worse was when my friend (who is a guy I might add) said the M3 looked like a mustang. I was like wtf is wrong with you, you should be ashamed of yourself.

wtf

my dad once said in the late 70s his girlfriend got into his 3 series and asked what it was.

he ended up breaking up with her. his explanation was, "son, if a girl doesn't know what a BMW is, shes got serious problems, so i dumped her. she wasn't too smart"

I don't know if you can say they look nothing alike:

But still, your wife should really know better.

I literally laughed out loud at this.
