Bimmer wave

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

What do you guys do when you roll up on a fellow x3/4m in the wild? I pulled up on someone on the turnpike last week and the second I got next to them, they floored it (LCI x3m BGM with aftermarket wheels). Seen a couple other beasts in the wild but wasn't sure if there was a secret hand wave or not

HAHAHAAA this is good.
My BMW wave is left paddle click downshift and brapppappappp.

I’ve only seen one other. It was filthy so I concluded was probably not an enthusiast. Also was dawdling in the right lane

2SG5 · 09-01-2022, 04:19 PM

lmaoo, looks like the consensus so far is to just be a douche and zoom by. Which I can very much appreciate. My buddy has a C7 Z06 and always complains that other corvette drivers always wave at him.

it definitely feels like the right answer is pedal to the floor. The second I punched it when my fellow x3m did the Mrs. just said "don't"

Yes! My buddy with an M3 complains about the same thing. The only time races appear is when the wife is in the car. He did race a new Ferrari and got spanked. Then got a speaking to.

Two fingers raised up over the steering wheel, a half hello half peace, reserved for fellow ///M cars seen in the wild. Every time.

9 out of 10 times this is what happens,if I don't comply immediately I expect to get punched in the dick if were running errands around town etc.
On the highway she'll encourage me if there's no traffic and another BMW engages us. Alternatively,I'll smack her in the crotch and do it anyways

If I'm going the opposite direction in my F82 I do a few quick high beam flashes if I see another M car and usually get it back or a wave. If I'm going the same direction it's window down and thumbs up.

I usually get "What are you doing?" or more often "What's wrong with you? "

dmanb2b · 09-04-2022, 10:20 PM

I don't know about other M cars, but why is it that it seems like every other base model 328 I blow past, 5 mins later they are on my ass as if I pissed them off.

MisPWR · 09-05-2022, 02:46 PM

I usually do a quick pull by them so they can hear my exhaust, even better if they're stock 😈

Back when I had a wrangler, it was mandatory to Jeep wave other wranglers. Literally wave/peace sign every other wrangler which got annoying.

I get Camry and Hyundai Elantra drivers mostly except for this 330i driver the other day driving like an idiot to drop me in a congested 2 lane road cutting people off left and right.
