Thats no surprise most BMW owners are like that, at my job there are two 2004 M3's (silver & black) and I've spoken to both of the owners which happen to be brothers. So anyways i asked them how are those Inline 6's treating you guys........................... Long pause thats all I got and I know these guys pretty good so it's not like they were ignoring me. The enthusiasts wouldn't have an automatic tranny anyways.
BTW. BMW = BigMoneyWasters. I love the cars but thats what they are for these people they have no clue as to why these cars cost what they do. To them it's the price tag that made them want the car.

bro....seriously people ...... "The only thing I noticed is that even at a complete stop, the tachometer needle is never at 0 or close to 0 RPMs. At a complete stop, the needle's just under 1. Is this normal?"
You gotta be kidding me, this kid should be banned from all automobiles and given a bicycle to commute. What an idiot. He actually thinks the RPM's are suppose to be at zero when the car comes to a stop. What an idiot.

I thought for sure it was a girl asking that question. If I was riding around with a guy and he asked me that question I would simply open the door, get out and walk my *** home laughing the whole time.
That is the exact reason that this is the only forum I take part in. I wonder what attracts so many people from other forums to that particular one though.

eh thats true too but im going to give him the benefit of the doubt and say that maybe he just got into the "car thing" and doesnt know **** about them...yes raping him a new one is the best way for him to learn that way he doesnt go to 50 other bmw sites asking the same thing and making an even bigger fool of himself!
That and cool customer cars to take out and pick up chicks!
You would flame this kid if it was a Nissan. It just so happened to be a BMW.
Real BMW enthusiasts know what a BMW is. BMW arent Big Money Wasters. BMW owners are true enthusiasts, because Chris Bangle and his piece of **** chassis designs aside, most BMWs are a work of art. When comparing two cars in the same category, a BMW almost always has the upper hand.
To this day no one has matched the power to displacement ratio naturally aspirated of an e46 M3. The Honda S2000 might've come close when it was a 2.0, but the new 2.2 just lost it. It was funny that the 2.0s were a true sports car, because it requires someone to know what they are doing to take advantage of such a car (like the rotary engines), but they ask their producers to put some more torque, because it's the ****ty excuse for a bad driver.
Obviously you will always have that idiot who doesnt know the displacement in their engine, or who feels awkward because his car idles at something over than zero, but that's for all the brands, from ricer civics to Ferrari owners. There's always the idiot who won the lottery, bought a ferrari, and didnt even know the engine was in the back. There's always the Civic owner that doesnt know what VTEC does.

For reference: 200HP / 2.0L = 100HP/L
E46 M3 : 333HP / 3.2L = 104.0625HP/L
Honda S2000 : 240HP / 2.0L = 120HP/L
Honda S2000 : 240HP / 2.2L = 109.09HP/L
Based on my calculations, the Honda S2000 produces more power per liter than the BMW M3. Unless i'm missing something here.
the E46 M3 CSL has a 3.2l putting out 355hp. That is the BMW I am using for this reference.
355HP/3.2L = 110.94 HP/L
My statement was accoding to top gear's Jeremy Clarkson, maybe he's seeing something I'm not. However I will give credit where credit is due. The S2000's 2 liter engine was a great engineering product. Shame popular demand changed this to a 2.2l.

Early model Honda S2000 still beats it.
