i guess u could call me a silver spoon bmw owner. but im also an enthusiast. i think there is a difference between me and my friend taylor who got an e92 335 bc he got straight c's [he wanted a cayenne turbo, and would have gotten it if his grades were good enough]

Let me guess, his parents will buy him a county if he gets into college.

From msn article: "Living with the parents rent-free frees up cash for flashy rides like the M3, he said."

That reminds me of when I lived in a real shithole apartment, and used to laugh that my neighbor drove a shiny new MB S500... probably didn't have $2 in his pocket at any one time. Kids... welcome to the rest of your life in debt.

Of course if you're an e90post kid, you can always beg your dad for one...

wow there are a lot of assumptions baked into those articles.

I highly doubt they matched income with car price. they almost certainly took the mean age reported by a manufacturer, bumped it up against mean income reported for that age by census and wove a bunch of stereotypes around those two 'statistics'
