I go through the same thing. Comes mostly from other non m 3 series or mustangs. I enjoy seeing the other people that I assume are jealous. I get 18 year olds in 330i / 335i that pull up and say they could beat me from a take off, and I simply ignore it and roll up my window. I don't care how fast the car is or isn't, I simply like how it sounds. But that don't mean I dislike the jealousy
