so nothing else really matters. keep telling yourself otherwise though.

hey if someone likes a car fine. but dont buy a car made for women then use excuses like you are an enthusiast.

it is like buying a saturn you dont go around and claiming yourself an enthusiast just because you own the brand.

its like guys who buy miatas, my buddy has one, he loves it. and he even says its a girly car but he enjoys driving it. so good on him. but it doesnt change the fact it is targetted towards women.

the problem is you have BMW owners who just cant seem to admit what their car really is. im the enthusiast and im telling you BMW are for women.
Your comment doesn't make any sense.

First of all, as an enthusiast I respect all cars cars that perform well. I'm not talking 'preferences' I'm talking hard performance numbers. I don't care what your opinion is about what type of people they're targeted towards.

I knew people who bought E30 M3s TO RACE, they weren't women and they weren't buying them to impress clients. They completely gutted them out, put racing compound tires and went head to head against Corvettes, Vipers, etc on a road course. You could show me a commercial right now with an M3 logo and a tampon, it won't matter those guys are still enthusiasts.

Go checkout the E30 M3 forum, a lot of those guys are hardcore racers.
