: Stupid M6 driver
johnnyz 09-14-2009, 01:13 AM So I was on my way up the NE extension of the PA turnpike from Philly this past Sat. when I came up in the passing lane on a guy with his girl in a bimmer M6. They were caught in the slow lane behind a semi so I figured i'd be a nice guy and let him get in pass lane, I flashed him my lights to let him know I was letting him in. Well, he must've thought because i was in an srt i was challenging him he rolls his window down, flips me off, then waits until i'm almost side by side and cuts me off and floors it. He was about 1.5mi ahead when i see a state trooper pull out of a hiding spot with lights flashing, he must have been doing over 100 because when i caught up the trooper had him out of the car and was walking him back to his cruiser which means his license is now gone and M6 impounded. It was in a const. zone 45mph limit. I slowed to around 35-40 and gave him a little toot of my horn. Oh well.
GlobeWarmer 09-14-2009, 01:27 AM Man, i want to feel compassionate for the guy, I mean what a bummer, and in front of his girl. But even if you were trying to race, why be an asswipe and flip you off? Sucks for him. Beep beep!
SoonToBeSRT 09-14-2009, 06:18 AM Typical bimmer owner/driver, he deserves all of that outcome and more imo ;)
Way to know when to let one go, saved your butt prob too!
Matt McKenzie 09-14-2009, 06:29 AM Haha, nice.......
af_maineiac 09-14-2009, 06:40 AM Haha! LOL :lol: Thanks - I needed a story like that to start off my morning! I love you you gave him that "toot" of your horn as you passed by. Deservedly so, for mistaking your kindness for arrogance....

Literally have to punch it to make the horn work. Sheesh. I guess with a quick Jeep like ours no one figured we'd need the horn?
BOYCHIKS 09-14-2009, 10:49 AM ha a prick that was.. Got what he deserved :p
And yes, our horns blow

LBCSRT8 09-14-2009, 10:39 PM Well at least when you do get our horn to blow, its nice and loud!;)
toothmechanic 09-14-2009, 11:51 PM Well at least when you do get our horn to blow, its nice and loud!;)
When you can find the right spot to honk! Seems like I have to push the damn steering wheel a few times just to find the right spot and by that time it is too late or not the right sound I was going for. :mad:
johnnyz 09-15-2009, 12:42 AM Yeah our horns are the worst out of any vehicle i've owned. And that j-off should have realized I wasn't going to race him in a construction zone with medium traffic.
Difference between BMW and porcupine? BMW's have the pricks on the inside.
I owned 3 bimmers and never acted like that.

It isn't justified for any driver to act like that, but I have to say BMW's are probably the best all around car in the world.
