    What do you mean by BBA? To me that is Bachelor of Business Administration.

    SUVs are mom cars too. Now if I see a girl in a pickup, then yeah that is kind of butch to me.

    BMW, BENZ, AUDI. Sales for all 3 brands are overwhelmingly 3 serials, C-class or A3,4,5s. People buy them because the building quality is better than those Japanese ones and American ones and they drive way better in general. But the really nice ones cost at least 60 grand. Audi A6 with 3.0T engine, Benz E350 and BMW 5 serials are the thresholds, in my opinion.

    There are plenty of girls driving pickups in the rural area, by the way.

    I know you're generalizing and I'm the one who made you tell us what car you drive, but you're the one sounding like a big douche here.

    Look at me everyone. I'm a big baller straight out of college who asked Clutchfans where I should work and played HS football with Andrew Luck and skipped the 3 series and the C class and went straight to the E because I make enough to actually stretch out my wallet and can proudly show off my three pointed star status.

    FWIW, everyone at my office who drives an E class is a woman. Even worse, they're all middle aged and have kids. What the hell are you doing driving one?

    My old car got totaled and I got a fat check and had money saved up through college that I used on a down payment for the car. The rest (22k) I just financed and will pay off as soon as I start my well paying job this summer when I graduate with my salary and signing bonuses. And I got 10K of the price so it was a lot cheaper and nicer than the BMW and Audi in terms of packages and options. When i took my deal to BMW, the sales associate flat out told me I need to leave and go buy that car.

    That is NICE! Love the look of this new M5 as well. The new IS, however, is ugly.

    I had the option of a 330i, c300, or an A4 Quattro. I felt the least douchiest in the Audi and nothing's better than engaging the Turbo :cool:

    Yeah, I said the same thing, but I guess I'll wait until I see it in person. BTW, the pics released were with the F Sport package. I don't know what it may look like without it.

    If you're interested in this class of vehicle, the next Infiniti G (now called the Q50) will be unveiled in a few days. I'm sure it'll look like a beluga whale like their other models. lol. :)

    I have pity for those who care about what other people buy. So what a lot of people buy low end 3 series and A4s? Why would you give a ****? If I'm making modest money and can comfortably afford a care that is priced in the 30k-40k range why would I buy a fully loaded Camry when I can buy an A4 or 328i? In fact if living in New England, you would be a dumb ass to buy a fully loaded Camry instead of a AWD A4.

    It's a shame that BMW felt the need to pump fake engine noises through the speakers of that M5. Of course Porsche and Ford do the same, in a way, connecting the intake system to the cabin via "noise pipes". Meh.

    He's got a point. That's like some idiot going to the Apple store looking to buy a computer saying well the Microsoft store is selling one of their computers $500 cheaper. What response do you actually expect?

    After having babies, most of them will go into their dependable Japanese economic car shell;)
