Car Meets

I was wondering if my 228i GC is car meet worthy? I love my car, and I don't care what the critics say "if not a real BMW" then why did BMW make it…… that's beside the point yes I know my isn't slammed or doesn't have any aftermarket parts but I still have a love and passion for cars, so should I bring my car to meets?

That color is just stunning. I think you should do whatever you think is best. Do I think their will be some real A holes about this car yes. I personally do not get the hate around this car but I guess since I also own one who cares.

Thank you I just cleaned my car inside and out today took 3 hours all by hand…. All the cars where I live are slammed and are like Subarus, lancers, golfs, those kind of cars. I bet I have more hp than 80 percent of them…. And could gap em.

There will always be people who will share their unwanted comments and be condescending, but if you like to go to meets I'd say do it.
For me personally it's the love for cars. Unless there's a special theme I don't see why it needs to be bagged, slammed etc.
Do you and don't care about the haters 😉

Just a fyi, the 228 is faster than a sti 0-60. If they can go, so can you.

Take it.

Every car has pros & cons but I haven't met anybody in the real world (including BMW owners) who didn't appreciate my GC in some way.

Why not, if you're happy to, go right ahead. It is a beautiful car and that is an awesome color you chose. There are still many of us who would appreciate it and at meets too.
