First Passenger ride Ever - United Bimmer Community

**BimmerKris** · 05-01-2005, 04:03 AM

Man i just rode in the passenger seat of my car for the first time ever. what a torquey little bastard. Once michelle got comfortable driving it i told her to drive the way i do, i want to see what is like and i don't know what the car is going to do. It was great she kept pinning my head to the seat. it was all fun and games till i spilt my iced tea. so i tossed the cup and told her to give it hell again.

ahhh good times, hopefully it still feels as fast tomorrow when im not drunk anymore

Wow. Being in my passenger seat the first time was super weird for me

yeah i know what you mean, i drove my car all the time, then one time had my dad drive it, felt completely different, i loved it.

i also love having my dad drive it without me in it, and i get to hear my car from the extrerior, sounded so nice.

I've only been in the passenger seat of my car once or twice, and that was because I was starving, so I threw the keys to someone else and ate while we were going where ever. But because I had food, they (read: ChrisWorrell) drove very sanely cause I didn't wanna spill anything on the interior. I've had my car almost a year now and still never been a passenger when someone's driving very agressively (and don't plan to change that, lol).

But yeah, kudos for not driving drunk.

The funniest thing I thought was seeing my own brake lights when a garage takes my car in for service, heh, how often do you see that hahahaha

Yeah, it kinda messes with you. The seat feels very different.

I only sat in the passenger seat of my old car because I was learning 5 speed so my dad would drive to a parking lot then I would drive back.

try this for weird, seeing someone else drive your car while you follow them!

I went to meet my wife to get something to eat after she got off work one day. since i had no where to go, she took the Bimmer and when i went to meet her I took her VW Jetta. Driving back home was super weird. I have seen other E30's before, but it is weird to see your own. on top of that i rarely see any Cashmere Beige Metallic E30's like mine.

Yea, I also had my first passenger seat ride this past Saturday. A buddy of mine took the car through her paces, definitely pulls your head back in 2nd gear- woo hoo! Also the first time I saw her from the outside drivng down the street . . . much better than checking yourself out while driving by a glass office building, LOL!

**celsdogg** · 05-17-2005, 08:31 AM

i always do that when we pull up somewhere, that is look in the glass to see the reflection of the car. i wonder if it would be weird to try and take a picture. . .

After having my car for about a week or so, I caught my reflection on a SUV or some other behemoth in front of me, and it was the first time I realized it was me behind the 4 round headlights and my dream had come true!

Ha, I always notice my angel eyes when behind shiney, black suvs.

The dealers mechanics drove my car.Usually after the service, they will bring it for a ride for testing.And yes i'll be inside...haha

**spiff** · 05-17-2005, 07:08 PM

i love the E30 lights, and seeing them and my Ronals...sick

**german speed demon** · 08-11-2005, 11:07 AM

ha, my dad drove mine once, and he said it was too much power for such a small car! too much power?*scratches head*

**94bmw325i** · 08-11-2005, 05:06 PM

that's what my dad said about my BMW and my old car. Guess because back in the day your car was fast if you had 80 hp, well in England..

My strangest encounter was sitting in the passenger seat after my suspension install had been completed. My tech was running the shit out of my car. I actually slid out of the seat and had to brace myself on the center console. After the ride he apologizes for beating on my car, grinning the whole time like a kid on Christmas.
