Ok, here's another: a nissan sentra pulls in the gas station behind me, guy gets out and says "how many MPG you get with the M5, must use a lot of gas those V6 BMWs?"

Pulled into a natural type food store, found and end parking spot staring me in the face (only kind I park in) and there was a prius with a pretty blue metallic paint. Thought to myself as I entered the space rumbling, how funny it was that even though he may use less gas on his trip home than I did in the parking lot, that my car was still better for the environment than his.
As I shut my door hes sitting in his car with window down,
"Pretty blue paint job there!" I tell him
"Yeah," he says, "Your's is kinda purple or somthin, huh?"
"Or somethin . . ." with an akward :-\ expression on my face
<---note the color
Maybe he's going color blind with all the RF scatter coming off of his Hybrid drive! hahaha
^ This 'ole redneck at my job asked me, "why did you buy a purple car" and I said "because it's much more entertaining than your stupid chevrolet pickup truck." He just gave me a stupid look. That's about all he gives anyway...

lol, I follow you . . . So my question is what color does he think HIS car is? Purple? . . . Pink . . . . what?

This particular guy doesn't know one BMW for another. Basically to him it's just a "yuppie" car or whatever he calls it no matter what model or year- it's just another BM-dubya. My comment to him was that no matter what color my M5 is it's world's more entertainment than his deer carcass hauler.
LOL I had this after recently moving to a new house a new neighbour had lost his cat and came knocking on the door around 8pm asking if id seen it. I explained no but said that i had been working in the garage so he may have crept in there so opened up the garage to check.
Upon seeing the M5 he asked " IS THAT A REAL ONE OR JUST A 518 OR 520 WITH A KIT" my reply was "WELL GO GET YOUR MERCEDES AMG AND ILL SHOW YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!" To that he realised and took the hint funny thing is he never wants to play when i see him out although i did take him for a spin in the beast think he was more than impressed .
