Most 3-series drivers (and 5-series and X5 drivers, for that matter) aren't necessarily fans of the car or marque. They simply drive it, often not knowing much if anything about the car they drive. It doesn't matter what's under the skin for most of them, as long as there are roundel badges on the surface.

In the early days I've waved to X5's while in my X5 and gotten blank stares or no response. The only time I get flashed or waved to/back at is when I'm in my Z3, mostly by Z3 and Z4 drivers.
WOW do I agree with this. Wave at another BMW driver. hahahaha very funny. I don't know about others but in Northern California you cant get people to look at you let alone wave. Your better off getting the attention from other drivers. Perhaps it's my imagination but something is amiss.
