In Reply to: HATE NURDS IN 8 50 's!!!!!! posted by ARAS on February 25, 2001 at 15:29:17:

Don't you just hate it when you see a Nurd driving a 8 series??? you know the type the alfa-romeo , VW, kind of types,

...so you mean young people?! Well I was 24 when I bought my 8 series. I think I'm a nerd now :-(

the Ugly Z1

Well, opinions differ on that matter but at least and undeniably the Z1 came up with the technically most sophisticated solution to a problem that didn't exist. ;-)
I like it and there will be one in my garage in two or three years. Nerd again :-(

and i also hate it to see a woman in one,

Actually the 8 series may be BMW's 'girlie-car'. Has anyone ever encountered a woman that does not like it? In that way it is quite like the Mercedes SLK.

gonna get a lot of hatemail now,

No. I'm afraid you picked the wrong board. Try somewhere else for more satisfying results :-) Too many nerds here.

Lets just say that it should get illigal for certain people to buy a 8 series , It lowers the value

Now guess what my second car is... It's a yellow and black Citroen 2CV Charleston (very rare!). It is going to be rebuilt completely until May and with one exception it will be totally original: It will have leather seats!
So I will be called a nerd not only by 'BMW-fans' but by Citroen people as well.

It's not easy nowadays to drive a car because you just like the car. But you figured that out for yourself. So maybe you should let go of the 8 series if it doesn't fit your style.

As my little 2CV is taken apart completely at the moment, http://www.2cv-charleston.net is still empty. But not for long :-)

Until that, go to the ultimate nerd's site. You'll find the link below.

...Mike
