This makes the case that the E9 is a frame of mind more than the car driving feeling. I second all this except that I do highways when they are empty and I wish I had springs nearby to drive to... oh and I get the fish at the sushi bar.
i never drive against others but i love to overtake for the joy of doing it, i always help others that are faster than me, i prefer an empty road than a row of dangerous overtakes so i wake up very early, i drive the small curvy and hilly roads and i enjoy every km, i do not go to shows or gatherings, i have better coffee at home, i do not drive it in highways, i like to try those water springs in the mountains and go to buy fish directly from the fishermen boats in the harbours, i have a bunch of close friends with old bmws and vws and we meet for breakfast or lunch now and then and we talk some gasoline
