I pulled into a parking lot yesterday behind a 340 M sport. It was a really nice color blue, clean and and shiny. As I head towards my perfect end spot, I see the driver is doing the same. I park behind him. As we both exit our vehicles, I say "Love the color, what is it?" He looks at me like I have two heads and says Blue. No shit. I started to ask the name of the color but knew it was useless. The car gave me the impression he was an enthusiast. Are the demographics of the BMW driver changing or do we here the minority?

I've encountered this many times. I'm both a BMW enthusiast and a Jeep enthusiast (I also own a '98 Wrangler). Nothing like complementing someone on their car, or asking what lift their Jeep has only to be greeted with a blank stare like I'm a psycho. I'm convinced most people know nothing about cars, and if it is modded, was probably built by someone else and they bought it because they thought it looked cool.
