Fellow E90 92 93 Love

Just wondering if you get any love from your fellow E9 0 2 3 drivers?

I always have a look at them and sometimes at lights give a friendly thumbs up/quick chat. Don't receive any hate from them either. For some reason E46s like to tailgate me not sure what I did to em?? 135i drivers are also very friendly.

Overall for me (non BM) Euro accords, Toyota Aurions and those Holden SV6 drivers are the most painful, Aurions are top of the 3.

Experiences?

I've had one guy who owns an e92 come up to me for a chat to discuss how awesome the e93 roof mechanism is lol. Actually a lot of randoms will make comments in that regard too, e.g, thanks for the show, check out the transformer etc etc.

No contact with other BMW drivers on the road though....

Only if there are some signs of an enthusiast owner. Otherwise there are just way too many E9Xs around to be waving at people.

I don't consider myself a slow driver but I've definitely noticed more tailgating since driving BMW's. Never noticed it on previous jap cars...

Just like celebrity have alot of paparazziS.
I too notice alot of tailgating especially cheap old cars.
I keep driving legal speed until they overtake me then I smoke them with my diesel FART!.

Do mutual stare-offs count as acknowledgment? Often its the "I'm checking out your car. And I see you checking out my car too.."

Broad meadows? I have a rap song (on an old harddrive) about a skyline driver from that region.. hilarious (though if you're not a lad/muzza, you'll probably find it offensive)
