I've finally had it with my car group. All they are is a bunch of badge snobs chasing after the Nova Dream. Well I'm sorry that I aspire to a Vette or a Hellcat over some yuppie mobile. Hell, I have more respect for hypermilers than I do for these guys right now. Sorry for dumping this here, but it IS car related.


DISCUSSION (21)

1. I think you meant "breed," not "bread."

2. How do you define "yuppie mobile?"

Does that include Porsche?

As a person who loves Corvettes, I'm obligated to point out that any equal 911 costs twice as much...

I think you're ok there, dude.

I doubt anyone would define your situation as "badge chaser-y".

One of the reasons I don't miss the DC area is I don't miss being surrounded by a bunch of khaki wearing motherfuckers.

Except I also happen to drive a BMW.

Oh that's a relief! I never heard the turn before and hadn't a clue what it meant, good or bad.

I do wish I could leave sooner rather than later. What BMW do you drive? E36s get a pass with me because everyone hates them.

It's normally applied to the type people who slap AMG badges on their C300s.

Hmmmm Hellcat....as someone who leans towards the Euro hardware, I want to destroy some tires in that Challenger

1. Yes. Yes I did.

2. The generic 328, C300, or IS250 AWD that every damn entry level business person I'm this area chases.

So you're mad at the car group you hang out with because they have a different taste in cars than you do?

1. You can still fix it.

2. Please separate the people from the cars. There are plenty of good folks who drive those cars who do so because they like them, not because they're self-absorbed douches who use the car as a status symbol.

The 1 also gets a pass. Mostly because it's everything that made older BMWs so great.
