A majority of M3 drivers are douches. Case in point...

I was at a stoplight in my daily driver (Honda CR-V), a space grey E90 M3 pulls up next to me. I'm checking out his M and see an Arkym front lip, stock rims, and aftermarket exhaust. The driver AND passenger notices that I'm checking out his dope ass ride.

Light turns green, he peels out and we both head onto a freeway on-ramp. Unfortunately, we hit some minor traffic and I past him --- as the freeway clears, he accelerates and catches up to me. We're side-by-side, he downshifts, revs the shit out of the engine, and the exhaust roars...catching my attention. We make eye contact, he smirks, and takes off.

At this point, i'm just thinking to myself...."WTF just happened? lol"

What a fcuking cock. lol. If it was someone on this board...

I guess that guy showed the whole world that an M3 CAN beat a CR-V (well under certain circumstances of course)
On the positive side, how did it sound when he downshifted and revved, I don't see any M3s around and never heard that from outside.

one more: No street racing ...or drag racing between the lights, ...esp if you both have e9x M3 and trying to prove something ...i.e. that DCT LC is faster! etc... leave the racing on the track!

P.S....the majority of e9x's have dark tints and cant see their M3 hand waves anyways ...lol

LOL , I have had that happen but the other way around, with pick up trucks, etc... thinking they are bad asses. I think that sameh's list is funny and when cocks like that show up, apply the list, lol. I have found people in general to admire the car, of course you have your AH's that try to be more of bad ass. When that happens (once a Honda Civic) tries to catch you and think they can pass you and leave you just becomes too much, apply half throttle down shift one and just wave bye bye. Love it everytime.

Sometimes I actually can't tell whether I'm being given a dirty look or if someone's just admiring my car. Case in point: At a stoplight the other day, this dude in a fixed up white e46 rolled past me going the opposite direction. With his window down, I see him just stare at me expressionless as he drives by. No gesture at all. Didn't know what to make of it. Usually I try to give a smile, nod, thumbs up, etc. just to acknowledge. Of course, I shouldn't expect others to do the same.

I wonder if you all had experienced the same thing, would you think: "They're checkin' me out," "They're mad doggin' me," "I don't care," etc.

Who gives a sh!t. You don't even know them. Maybe he stares emotionless to everyone he sees. I wouldn't personalize it too much bro.

Me and an E60 M5 did the exact same thing yesterday. I was thinking, dope car. He was probably doing the same. Neither of us acknowledged each other. We just stared for a minute.
