Not trying to be rude. We know you love your 850 and must very proud of it, but you don't have to keep posting it over and over. It's kind of annoyed.

Judging by all the appreciates of snowbimmer's posts, I'm not sure you're in the majority, dingding. I love seeing pics of his car, your car, and everyone else's. As snareman said, that's what this thread is for.

From my perspective -- Keep the thread alive. Keep the pics coming.

I wasn't going to respond, but, shit, I can't help it. What's annoying (annoyed?) is a whiny Karen with a Reputation of "5." Sorry, that WAS rude. I apologize.

I've posted several travel threads with gobs of pictures that, so far, have generated views approaching 70,000. That is a lot of people to annoy.

I wish more owners would post more pictures. I totally enjoy what others have done to their cars. I enjoy seeing other parts of the country in the background - even if it is just your driveway. There are some killer cars on here that we don't see enough of. A certain black one in CA, a Superman M850 in AZ and a Bluestone in FL come to mind. And a ton of others. Come on, mans!

As part of my new anti-annoyance doctrine, I promise I won't post any more this week.

If I'm ever lucky enough to actually own one there will certainly be lots of pics. And, pics here are one of the only things to help tide me through the miserable wait for mine. My CA says he's sending another email to Germany or somewhere tomorrow after not hearing anything back last week and after not getting any meaningful info back from the first email a few weeks ago.

Looks fantastic! As per the other thread on curbs and driveways, the rubber is there to take the damage and likely easily replaceable if needed.

Nobody is trying to speak for you. Obviously you're annoyed by pictures of the same car posted several times in the thread that by definition is random shots of an 8-series.
That said the rest of us are not so we track the thread and the easy solution for you is to stop doing so if it annoys you.

Finally had a mobile detailing this past week and took a couple of boring driveway shots. Mostly they were done to assess the front-end curb damage and to verify that the rock chips on the hood from the week before last were indeed all PPF.

Here's the main first shot. Don't want to add the other close ups in fear of annoying anyone.

Thanks. dingding would really hate the F90 forum. Lots of guys posting lots of pics (OF THE SAME GODDAM CAR!!) over and over and over. It's awesome.

Glad to help out - even if mine is "just" a lowly (apparently piece of shit, not good enough to run with the big dogs) M850. Man, I gotta do better.

Dammit, too late!!!

Yeah, I'm a bit confused, too. Not sure what posting too many pictures has to do with "I have a Ferrari and you don't!!" What are you, seven? But, at least you are "gold." As such, I have retreated into my safe space and am now trying to type thru my tears. Seems like a dick move there, Scooter. First, you have no idea if I have, or don't have, a Porsche or Ferrari or ever owned one or the other at anytime in my life. It's great that other forum members have other cars. I am truly happy for them. Life is hard and if you put together the resources to build a garage stable, well, good on yah. And, golly, most of them aren't dicks. I enjoy seeing their cars, too. Lots of them even post those pictures on the various BMW forums here. Seems like everyone likes to see them, even though they are mis-posted to a "BMW" forum. Why? People like cars.

Since July of 2019 I have had an F90, an F90 LCI Comp and now an M850. Is the M850 a step down from the F90? Yeah, probably. This car serves a specific purpose in my life right now and ticks all my required boxes. BTW, how do you know I don't live in a $2M house? How do you know I don't have a $5M portfolio - or even $10M? Or $250k? Yeah, ya don't. I can pretty much drive any cars I want (OK, probably not a total exotic) and the M850 drives me around town just fine as a daily and takes me on long-ass trips. It's a 8er - that's why it's posted here in the "Random" 8er section.

So, to all the other 8 owning forum members, thanks for your support. And, really, post more pics. The F90 forum has us by a 4:1 margin. And, bloozemanAZ , go ahead with a close-up shot. Tanzanite is spectacular. Don't fear the easily annoyed

I was really enjoy looking those random pictures from different members until now. Since I’m not so much in love with my cars and don’t need to spend the time to take pictures and keep posting them, I used my spare time did a little bit of courting: This threat started two years ago, has 53 pages so far, there is no one single member post pictures with same car more than 4 times(posts), there is only one person posted 17 times with total 37 pictures with the same car and that all happened within the last three months. And yes, this person will continue to post pictures with the same car just like he said above.
Seriously, I don’t care what people have in their garage or how much their worth. If you keep posting the same LA Ferrari or 918 over, over, and over, viewer will get bored and even annoyed, not mention this’s even not a LA Ferrari or Porsche 918.
I don’t know any watches guy here or not. But if a person keep flashing his wrist , showing off his Omega non stop, how do you feel about it and what do you think the rest of his watch collection going to be?Only thing I wanted to say is: I hope he does not own an Rolex or AP.
BTW, my daily driver is a 2016 Nissan Altima. Most reliable and low maintenance car I ever owned. I need to show her some love and take some pictures and post it online too
