30 Min ride home in NJ was M cars galore

Drove home from North Bergen NJ to Hawthorne NJ (38 min trip) and saw two M3s and an M6. Maybe I just hadn't noticed before I got my M2 but there are quite few M cars on the road here.

Proximity to NYC money...

Edit: not trying to sound like a tool but a lot of people around these parts have AMG’s M’s M’s for their nannies (I shit u not)....
Porsche’s Tesla’s etc. when I retire I’m going to a normal place...

Maybe going forward after losing the SALT deductions and some of the new regs on Wall Street you’ll see less of this.

I think that's the case with every major city in the US, as these are not rare cars. Although I only see another M2 on the road maybe once every other month here outside of car events.

I'm near Atlanta and never see any M2's. A guy at my job has one, but I've only seen it twice.

Granted I live in a real city () - there's about 5 or 6 M cars parked in my garage. Then there are about 5 or 6 M cars parked in my work garage.

M cars aren't special

I've seen exactly one M2 on the road since they were released. Of course, I live in Ohio...

You are Correct, You didn't notice. they didn't all buy their cars After you.

It's the same as when you find a new friend owns a vehicle , say a Kia, and suddenly you realize , wow i see at least 5 of these things a day.

PS. Keep your eyes up and stay alert when driving.

It's funny, OMW to swing by the Porsche dealer Saturday morning I saw on my 25 min ride:

1) SO f10 M5
2) followed immediately by a stock 15/16 AW M4
3) MR e92 M3 (was perfect and made me regret ever selling mine )
4) Imola? red e46 M3 on te37s

I see an F8x M3/M4 on occasion here but Saturday a ton of M cars were out.. may have been because it was sunny for once lol

I'm in North NJ across from NYC. seeing at least 3 M3/M4 is a norm every day, along with AMGs and other ridiculous cars.

but, I still only see M2s once per month.
