Some dudes in a 318 pulled up in our parking lot at work and are smoking and walking all around my car... Is that something we do? Is one of you here? They've been here for like 10 minutes.

Edit: They left. Whew.

Edit again: Instead of spending money on clear markers and ricer lights (full disclosure: I accidentally ordered stupid headlights too) folks should get rid of the ugly 318 trim/bumper so that it at least looks like a 325...

I dislike smokers and their disgusting habits/materials. Move your car, or it will have the stench of 10,000 monkeys.

They are trying to ascertain if you have a real M3 before engaging you in a race......haha

Even with my M3 working like crap I could take them, but I don't race. I think they live around here, but I park my car here every day and they've never creeped on her before.

You need it to squirt oil on their shoes like Herbie

I like smokers, dislike the smoke.

Yes! Or it could just start up, the lifter tick would scare them off.

Just wondering if it might be worth your time to make a few notes (now) of what they looked like, what they were wearing, what they were driving, time/date of encounter...you know, "Police-Stuff" (!).

That's why I carry Field Notes in my back pocket. Duly noted. Green 318 with ugly black trim, clear corner markers and "euro" rear lights, weedy looking guys smoking cigs with t-shirts and jeans. Pretty sure I see this 318 drive past a couple times a week, though.

If you're certain you've seen them before, then try to jot down the license plate number at your next encounter...just for grins!

Will do! I didn't want to engage them today. Not because I look down on 318 owners, but because I'm busy. And sometimes I get tired of telling people how not-really-that-cool my M3 is currently.

Eying her for a late night parts run or Bimmer fans. . .

Good thing I live 30 miles away. I'll assume bimmer fans.

Psh, 318 plebes. 328i is where fun begins.

Sometimes I only recognize these things as 318s... I usually just call them all 318. I wouldn't take a 328 in a race...

(Reminder: I don't race anyway)

Damn near the same car for North America.

No, you should look down on them. It is mandated in the BMW Hierarchy Rules Book. Your's not come with this?

Pretty much.

Actually, no it didn't. If you don't pay over $2,000 for your car, they strip the pretentious out of it. I'm just kidding, they left the BMW badges.

The original owner left it in the glove box, right next to the BMW car phone catalog.

Got it. Thanks for the tip. Now I gotta move my car. Apparently I'm not supposed to park inside the lines.
