Not long, I left him after I made him relies how much of a fool he really is. The thing really peeved me off was the stereotyping of the typical BMW customer. People see BMW drivers as yuppy so and so's. The problem is that the sales staf are also driving this message. They wait on hand and foot to someone that looks like is loaded with cash. They had a BMW function to unveil the 1 Series Coupe, I was just at the motor show that night I wasn't attending the function. All the 320i drivers were decked out in nice clothing and were treated like BMW's gods. Whereas, other customer who were dressed casually and drove much more expensive models in the lineup were dismissed because they didn't fit inside the typical BMW stereotype. Sometimes it is embarrsing to be a BMW owner. Lucky they make excellent cars!

The same thing happened in the C-class launch party. All the C180 Classic drivers, Toyota drivers and some teenagers in the riced up sh*t box dressed up with a lot of metal decorations around their ears, fingers and neck. Their façade was shattered when you see the mob rushing over to get their free food and drinks, one of them was drinking straight out of the wine bottle while others were trying to swallow as many oysters as possible and left the shells on the floor. After they were gone, the entire showroom was in a mess.
