I had a Jetta rental and I felt the general courtousy level on the road drop. People are generally a lot nicer to you when they see you driving a luxury sports coupe in a civilized manner as opposed to an econobox in the same manner.

Same with me, don't know what reality that guy is living in but I feel the anti-Luxury car BMW beef almost daily if I drive like a jerk. If I drive like a jerk its like "Oh ofcourse, another douchebag in a BMW". BMW is basically the ultimate douchemobile and if you don't realize that, you are in denial. All the cliches about BMW drivers exist for a reason. My wife says she feels self conscious in my car and doesn't like the feeling. IN the same sentence though she really wants the new X3 for the next car. These cars are great to drive and no other brand I have experienced thus far has the perfect blend of performance, comfort, tech and driver focused interiors/controls but they have their faults.

Read my post again - you misread it. If I drive civilized (emphasis on civilized), and not like a douche, people are generally really nice. |

I swear people are shocked when I let them merge, and pull out first into traffic.

Whenever I drive my wife's X5, I hop in, drop the key in the cupholder and push the start button. Then I'm confused for a second when it doesn't start before remembering I have to put the key into the slot.
When I'm loading groceries I frequently pull the rear door handle and curse when the doors don't unlock and I remember only the front doors have comfort access. |

When I go into m my fiancé's 328 and I'm missing my 60 or so hp. I miss my Dinan exhaust time too and the burbles.
Anytime I'm not driving a BMW I forget how boring other cars drive. BMW Just has an agileness to the drive that make people feel super confident in driving which is why I think people sometimes drive like douches.

When I use the turn signal to change lanes and get to see the side camera video and blind spot detection. Oh wait. Wrong car. Never mind

I have 2013 with comfort access and a 91 Ford F-150. Every time I walk up to my ford I push the button and pull then remember I need to get my key out to open the door?
