Haiz, too much heat in owning a Beemer. You always get unfair comments abt owning a Beemer. Shows that an ID-ten-t is born every second

OMG! I BOUGHT THE WRONG CAR! DAMN! SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A PIKACU... OOPS, PICANTO INSTEAD! ROTFLOL!!!

There are so many people out there that have been blowing their horns so darn much, until they themselves are beginning to believe that whatever that they are blowing are indeed a true fact! I have my fair share of trying to reason with people who are not in the know, but thinks that they are a walking dictionary, and yet not wanting to admit and open minded enough to accept. I have told myself not to waste time on these things.... but this is a topic that I found hard not to respond to..

back to topic..... on the question of "can a picanto outclass a 3 series", lemme break it down.....

space, NOPE..
luxury, NOPE....
wow factor, NOPE....
chick magnet, NOPE.....
driving dynamics, NOPE....
engineering supremacy, NOPE.....
fittings and trimmings, NOPE...
torque, NOPE....
speed, NOPE....
should I go to the safety ratings? no? enough jor?

WAIT, STOP THE PRESS! There is 1 thing the pikacu, oops, picanto, (damn! have to get me bearings right!!!) trumps the 3 series..... and that is,

wait for it, wait for it,....

PRICE! YES! YES! YES!

but hang on.... chinese got 1 saying woh, "GOOD THINGS NOT CHEAP, CHEAP THINGS NOT GOOD"... how leh?
at the end, you get what you paid for lor......

think that 1 picanto smoked a 3 series on the highway which leads to the picanto thinking he is invincible, can tarpau a 3 series, but not knowing that the 3 series might have let him pass coz the picanto (Hah!, got it right) is not a worthy playing partner!

especially liked the bit about the car wash.... sheez.... seriously in a world of their own! in all fairness, think they started the thread as a joke but ended up dwelling in a spiral abyss... there is another saying in Hokkien, "KA KEE KONG, KA KEE SONG!!" loosely translated, "self talk, self syiok!"
anyways, thanks to bro nuggyn for pointing this out, at least a good laughing start to my weekend....

Please. How is a new 3 better than the Picanto? Do you get VIP service at the valet? My friend with a Picanto gets free valet parking!!! Not only that, when he goes to a petrol station to pump fuel, the service attendant will give him a free car wash.

Any of you 3-series owners get those benefits?

Ms saila,
this is a BMW thread, not a picanto/kia/hyundai/toyota/honda/etc thread...
what gives you the right to come here and ask nonsensical question?
aren't you far away from your playground?
did my post in my BMW thread offended you?
true to the fact remains, as per my earlier remark, "I have my fair share of trying to reason with people who are not in the know, but thinks that they are a walking dictionary, and yet not wanting to admit and open minded enough to accept"

come-on.... grow up... joined yesterday and starting to act like you are the king of the world....
So pls show a little respect to the forum, to the marque and to yourself and do not spam other ppl's thread....

Moderators, how do you control such a nuisance where the king of the world starts to run their mouth out of their zones?
