Pinheadism is alive and well, it seems.

I like my Jetta, it has a 5-speed, and I find it VERY rewarding to drive. I 
don't feel the need to plunk down a shitload of extra cash for a car that I 
don't even like anyway, just to say "I have a BMW, a rewarding RWD car to 
drive." And it may come as a surprise to you, but I've dusted more than a 
couple "ultimate driving machines" with my lowly Jetta.

Yeah, it's front-heavy, yeah, it plows, no, it's not a track car, blah blah, 
woof woof. BUT, I have fun with my car, to it's and my own limits, who gives 
a rat's ass whether you or anyone else thinks I'm a REAL driver. I ain't out 
to win LeMans, Indy or Daytona - I'm out to have fun with what I brung.

Yours is the kind of attitude that makes the rest of the world hate BMW 
drivers.
