Why would a e90 get staged?

My own bias, but any restaurant wanting to "stage" a car that's <$100k, probably shouldn't be offering valet parking in the first place... unless it's unique like an ATOM, or the like.

The only time my cars havent been staged is when the brothers come along in their cars (2001 BMW 325i stock and 2003 Infiniti G35 stock ). The Mercedes SL55 on 20s, BMW 750li on 22s, and my 335i coupe on 20s always get staged and eye f***ed by everyone that walks by them. Now when I go out with my friend who owns an exotic car store down here in FL its a different kind of staged , he likes to bring only and all of the finest. Mike.

Haha, I'd crack up if I saw an e92 staged around here. Right now on Queen West there is a 599 GTB and Porsche GCT outside Noce. I'm sure the e92 is on fire in the back.

then, yeah, I'd say your area is pretty ghetto. In all seriousness, do you really think E90/E92 is rare/exotic enough to be staged at a posh restaurant? think about it, if the restaurant had a choice between the said E92 and a Ferrari F430....hmm, which one would they pick? The fact that they picked to stage a E92 tells me that they got nothing else better than the E92

first few e92 M3s are SURE to catch some heads turning. i know it'll have my head turning as far as it can (or maybe even a bit more ). but then again, e9x M3s will be pretty common too in a couple of years like E46 M3s are now.

I think the E90 is very common and probably wouldnt get staged. But a nicely equiped E92 335i such as Eric@SP's, Technik's, or just a nice one with some good wheels and a drop might. I didnt start this thread saying "HEY I think that my E92 is sooooo nice and pretty that it gets staged and they kick the ferraris outa my way so boo hoo........"

I just simply asked who gets, or has had, their car staged at a valet before. And I NEVER said that they're kicking lambos outa my way. Geez, I just said that my cars been staged at those valets before.
