If you see an M3/M4 like yours, do you follow it just to look at it?

I saw an F80 M3 this morning and my jaw dropped. I couldn't take my eyes off of it. It was bone stock, BTW. Why is it that, although I have the same exact same car, when i see another one, I feel/act like I've never seen one before? I feel like I don't drive an M3 sometimes because I am always getting the view of the inside. I have followed other M3s exactly like mine just to look at them, LOL.

This is sad, but I just wanted to know if I am the only person that does this.

G35POPPEDMYCHERRY · 03-28-2019, 04:03 PM

lol...i make sure I always follow a fellow M driver....the car looks sick on the road, especially if you are in an SUV

pikkagtr · 03-28-2019, 04:31 PM

I wouldn't follow it per session, but I will try and get next to it and wave
Most people look at me like I got something growing out of my neck lol
But some are cool enough to throw a peace sign back

It's not. It's one thing to own it but you rarely get to see it in motion and from other perspectives. I look and gawk every time I see one too. (IMO) These cars are still somewhat rare amongst the cars you see on the roads.

MrSmartyPants · 03-28-2019, 06:08 PM

Hell yeah. These things look so sick rolling.

This! I wanna see it and hear it while I'm standing outside lol..

It's hard not to stare at one of the best looking sedans on the road.

Totally agree. Maybe one of the best looking sedans ever.

Whenever I'm waiting outside at the dealer and they drive the car up when they're done with whatever's on the maintenance plan that day, I always feel like Benoit Tréluyer

You're not the only one, I tend to stare and admire another F8X while driving too. I even feel jealous at times before realizing I have the same car.

ext · 03-28-2019, 08:33 PM

I think I’ve mentioned this before but, the biggest problem with owning this car is that I don’t get to look at it when I’m driving it! I get too excited seeeing other M3/4s driving around, even if they are stock. It’s just a fantastic looking car.

Darth One · 03-28-2019, 10:14 PM

Not in Florida. Too many people carrying - legally and illegally

Yea. We get the cabin view and everyone else gets to see the beautiful exterior

RickFLM4 · 03-29-2019, 06:06 AM

No

G4BR13L · 03-29-2019, 06:42 AM

Depends on the wheels they have. If I like them I follow them home and return during the night

M3Fahrer · 03-29-2019, 06:52 AM

I followed and appreciated an immaculate looking San Marino Blue E92 M3 the other day. Or was he following me?

Either way, it was some fun driving off the line at red lights with these two different M3 generations.

jdgamble · 03-29-2019, 07:06 AM

I love watching my car drive away when my wife takes it. Better yet, when we leave the house separately with me in her car. I follow her and stare at my car. It’s hard to keep up in the minivan tho.

Teeone · 03-29-2019, 12:05 PM

I don’t believe I have ever done this....

joooiiiiii · 03-30-2019, 07:11 AM

If we are going the same way, I just happen to "gravitate" towards it hehe. But I always do a couple light honks or high beams and wave at them. 99% of the time, they usually wave back.
