Default BMW isn't a car

You know what, for all the B1tch, Moaning, Whining (BMW) that goes on here, I'm amazed that anyone buys a Porsche. You would think they are the worst cars in the world listening to the gripes of some.

I've ordered mine because I love the brand, I love the look, I love the car, and I feel connected even though it's not been built yet. I couldn't give a rats a$$ if the clocks don't look like they used to. I really don't care how the dashboard or buttons scroll. If it took me 20 attempts to set the car up to have the car open the garage door for me, woe is poor me. If the exhaust doesn't make the right sound, I don't care. If the indicators are too clunky or the wipers don't clear fast enough, or the seat belt buckle is too sharp or the tyres make too high pitched a noise, I'm not bothered one iota.

I love the 911, and I adore this model, and I will never complain about anything in it or on it because I chose to spend my hard earned on it. Porsche pay designers handsomely to work out what is best for them and the driver; then we get to purchase it. No not everything is perfect, and yes they make improvements, but they are the experts, we are just drivers and every single one of us will do something differently, and they try to cater for all of us. Just think how tough a job that is.

So if your side windows defrosted quicker in your 991, great. If your slide along heating control in your 930 never failed, awesome. I'm happy for you. I'm also happy that I am privileged enough to own the car of my dreams and whilst it may not do 200 miles on a single gallon of fuel, I won't lose any sleep over it; it is what it is.

This site is so full of posters seeking affirmation, of one form or another, that their choice is “right”? Yawn…other than school age children, who obsess about what their classmates think, why does any adult care about what others think of their choices? Really.


And oh, and per the title of this thread, the BMW is a car…a fabulous car. It just fills a different niche, IMO, than the 911.

Clearly you missed the point.

B = B1tch
M = Moan
W = Whine

I like BMW cars, didn't have a single issue with the ones I had

Okay, I finally read the OP's post in full. The OP has thrown a change up (googly?) and is likely to confuse until you read his post.

I didn't want to take a scattergun approach by using the title - Moaning Porsche Owners as clearly not everyone moans
