e90post WAAAAMBULANCE



This thread is dedicated to all the whiners of e90post. Why? I'm sick and tired of reading all the posts about "my car broke, I'll never buy a BMW again! horrible experience with my dealer! car sucks, my breaks squeak!, etc" Scroll down the general section, theres one said post 8 out of 10 posts of someone bitching.

Let's say this once....

EVERY CAR HAS PROBLEMS, WE/I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU SPENT. You think cuz you bought a BMW the entire company is going to wire your ass with gold leaf toilet paper? Shut up. I know people are just venting but damn, some of you are plain sissies. Claiming to never buy a BMW again cuz of some stupid ass issue or whatever? Get over yourself.

End thread/rant

You don't have to be a fanboy to understand reality. ANY CAR FROM ANY MANUFACTURE WILL HAVE ITS PROBLEMS! It's the luck of the draw.

No but you do have to be a fan boy to automatically attack another poster for voicing PROBLEMS and ISSUES with their car and dealership experience.

Fanboys (eg the ones on this site) operate in their own little world where some brand (in this case BMW but they're just the same as Apple fan boys, Audi fan boys, etc.) can do no wrong and any problems are not possible. Since no problems ARE possible said fan boy must attack the poster's credibility because, well, that's the only thing his puny little mind can really muster up.

Nobody said they can't do anything wrong. The point of this thread is that it WILL do something wrong.

It seems as those complaining so much about their problems are expecting perfection.

I'd say expecting perfection and expecting a reasonably good experience across all facets are far apart from one another on the spectrum.

We're not saying the issues they are having are bunch of shit. That it is impossible for them to happen. Why we are attacking people who post a problem is not because they have had a problem. It is because they are bitching over the smallest of issues. If you had a bad HPFP and had to wait 3 months for the new one to come in and came here to vent, then you would find sympathizers. But, bitching over your issues for example will get you the attackers as your issues are minor and a simple switch of a dealer and a letter to BMWNA complaining about the bad dealer will fix your problems most likely.

Who cares how minor an issue is? If it needs to be in the shop for 6 days it shouldn't matter if it's a headlight igniter, a fuel pump, etc. An issue is an issue is an issue. What's even worse is when it not only happens so early after delivery but is accompanied by poor service.

I see all these people saying "well I had so and so go wrong and I didn't complain". Guess what: if you had a problem and still bent over for BMW then good for you, BMW enjoys reaming customers like you with no backlash.

It is called reality and most of us accept it. All cars will have their minor issues. So if a halogen bulb went out on your BMW instead of a Xenon, would you still swear off BMW? Dealers are not perfect either. So they ordered the wrong part? Big deal, again shit happens. You just got unlucky on how the events unfolded for you.

Should I swear off GM because they messed up on the programming of the 6 speed auto that is in my Aura that they eventually rectified? No, because the transmission is brand new and it will be awhile for GM to perfect and get rid of the bugs.

if you can't stand the whining and complaining then just don't read the thread? it's not that hard..

if little things ONLINE bug you this much, you have issues of your own.

Can I tell you how many problems I have had with my ex-wife? I trader her in for a new model and life is good.

Sorry for whining. It will never happen again!

I didn't make this thread to single just you out, but you def. tipped the scale to making the thread. I sympathize the fact that they have been slow to rectify your problem. But to swear off buying another BMW cuz of it is laughable. Your problem isn't that bad, life will go on... I promise.

No I don't care. I just like to see some reactions.



Look if someone made an indestructible, bug free, never breaking, never rusting, or always will act the way the owner wants car then there would be no car business and no competition for better cars. Again, everyone will have issues with their car no matter what brand or how much $$$ you spent on it anywhere from day 1 to day 3289327492387, it doesn't matter. You think Bugatti Veyron's or F50's don't have problems?? But jumping off a bridge cuz of some stupid issues, which is how almost everyone seems to be acting lately is ridiculous. I can't count the amount of threads people have started saying something along the lines of, "I'll never buy a BMW cuz of XXX issue". When XXX issue is usually some trivial stupid problem that a couple phone calls wouldn't fix.

Also if you bought a BMW thinking you'll never have any issues then you really need to think things over again
