after reading through this thread, im more confused now bubble= nissan, toyota and honda?:nonono: uh-uh too many nick names. too many shapes

I just know a few BMW ones I think that's the most important after all hehe,

e30= box shape
e30 325is= gusheshe
e28= box shape/madala? my one friend insisted it is, hes a gangster I didn't want to entertain that argument so I gave up.
e36= Dolphin
e46= G-string
e90 m3= anaconda

gents i think it all boils down to where and how u grew up, people in the less fortunate communities did not have acces to all that kind of information hence they differentiated between the models by giving them names of there own. it might be lame to some of us but to others its a way of life. I think that it also shows a lot of love for BMW considering that they would actually give a name when they really dont know what it was. so for me personally i dont think its stupid

Of all the car nic-names I've heared, there is only one that can discribe all types of vehicles in a certain circumstance, and that is when the car in question is fully loaded with sexy girls, you call it a "Po3s-Koets" :mmm:

By the way the E36 was the 'G-string' not the e46
And the E46 M3 was called the '4 PIPE'

correction: e46 pre-LCI was "G-string" ... e36 "Dolphin"

e46 was called g-string because the headlights look as such..

 

[outlaw335]

lol this is funny! but i agree with crazyridez330.as far as i know the m3 e36 is referred to as g-string and the m3 e46 is referred to as 4 pipe..
Any ideas guys on what we could call the E90/92 V8? Who knows,maybe we could start a something new on our very own forum:bravo:
