I agree. Other BMW drivers that don't let you pass or cut in are the worst! Where's the loyalty?

Bogus. BMW drivers use their turn signals, it's just not visible to poor people.

How to be a BMW driver (these are all characteristics of BMW drivers I met)

--Have a desire to be perceived as wealthy, but aren't
--Don't learn anything about car control and be completely at the mercy of DSC, yet talk about how you "kick the tail out" and "drive it hard"
--Talk about how good manual trans are but suck ass at driving one
--Learn about the Nord and decide it's a "high speed track with a lot of straights"
--Go to Germany, do maybe 130 MPH on the autobahn and consider your speeding ambitions fulfilled

LOL that's terrible...

Not withstanding the fact that my blinker fluid runs out all the time, I don't use my blinker every time because sometimes the situation calls for a surprise lane change. If I were to make my intentions known, then the other driver would have ample time to cut me off, block me, or otherwise cause mischief - all of which has happened.

Driving a nice car has its penalties...

You haven't spent much time around BMW CCA members, have you. Most of the ones I know are nothing like your definition. They are great people that drive BMWs because they love them.
