When you pass by another E36 on the road...

Do you wave or do anything special? I think we need to start something like motorcyclists have been doing for years with the little hand gesture. Maybe a fog-light flash or something.... [???1]

BMW fanatics have always flashed their lights at other BMWs when passing, We flash at all bimmers and even though some do not return the greeting we will continue to do it.

I think the E36 drivers out here are all older for some reason and don't do anything when you see each other!

Mostly old guys too stuck up to notice anyone else I think.

I just keep enjoying the ride.... :eek:)

Yeah! those stuck up E36 drivers. I really wish they would take the stick out of their .... Oh wait; I drive an E36..... And Joe it looks like you do too [rofl]. Just kidding. Some people do need to get their head out of that dark stinky place and just have fun! The crabasses are the ones to give the 1 finger howdie too.

Hi, I 'm down here in lower AL. , in the sticks. Don't see many E36's . But will be more than happy to wave. The eye of Hurricane Dennis will be here soon. I 'll will throw my body over my 96 328IS. It must survive.

i do sometimes, i know i shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but most kids i see driving around in e36's all think they are driving around in Euro M3's or Z8's or E30 M cars, and they drive around like their 318i with limo tint is the best car in the universe. i'm all for people enjoying what they have, but most kids like that come off as dicks to me

I probably come across as a kid who thinks he's driving hot shit.... I'm just proud of my car, esp. when it's clean.
I see so many of them in Atlanta I think I'd wear out my headlights if I flashed every one of em [:)]

I've seen a couple of other 96 328i's on the road comming home from the golf course these past 3 weeks. They don't acknowledge me either. Not concerned, want to have their butts next to me at one of the stop lights on the way home. Would like to blow them away from the lights just for fun.
Cheers, lol

I'd flash my lights to another E36 BMW as long as I know that it has manual transmission :) I'd flash my lights to frolf's car for sure since he's got the same setup as myself: black coupe with manual and I6 under the hood - true BMW setup, it doesn't get any more BMWish than that, yeah! :D

I think that should be our new nation-wide E36 acknowledgement - just hold up the shocker as your pass. People would be confused at the beginning but after a month of my commute I'd start passing the same people again and they'd catch on


Or not
