My sentiments--based on attending two BIMMERFEST's--
It's the place for the "Young and Restless" bunch who are in the majority there who have acquired a new ride and are determined to "improve" tham with bling or other factory omissions--
its just life that us old-timers are viewed by that group as either simply--"out of touch", "not with it" or an "old dinosauer" and certainly "illiterate with X-box" or I-pods, etc.--probably unable to understand the importance of 5,000 watts of a special sound system--instead of being content to listen to the "Music of Munich"--or such mundane activities with their old out of date BMW's--whats the matter--can't you afford a new one?--or--if not, lease it.
They will gain some experience with the reality of depreciation when the time comes soon to replsce his customized ride unless now well grounded in life--and that's refreshing when you do see that quality in our youth !
