Being from Boston the parking job is no surprise

Although it is fun to point to the fact that a BMW
driver was to blame here, I have seen way too much
bad behavior by motorists with xyz brand vehicles.

In Boston double parking is also a common occurrence.

I think is a matter of probability. There's more BMWs out on the road thus higher probability of "douches" driving the brand.

Some of the best people I know drive BMWs. Some of the kindest and most humble people I know drive BMWs.

Do you really want to continue with car stereotypes?

Plus anyone that watches Top Gear knows that those folks have moved on to Audis

The Chris Bangle BMW designs, starting some years ago, actually drove some of those so-called ****ks (your words, not mine) away from the brand. As others in this thread have noted, many of today's BMW drivers are not the stereotypes they once were accused of being.

I'm more of a ***** driver when I drive my daily Camry than when I had my BMW or my other higher end cars. In the Camry I feel I don't give a crap what happens to the car and I'm more anonymous and don't stand out since the car is dime a dozen. In the other car I feel like it would be too east to recognize my car and be retaliated against sometime later.
