E36 TT Session in Bukit Jelutong

There was a TT (teh tarik) session organized by some of the BMW Malaysia forummers. The crew decided to go down for a drive @ Bukit Jelutong to join the fun. Some of them came from as far as Penang & Johor. A convoy of about 6 e36 cars had also come down from Seremban (some of whom we personally know) and we meet them at the Toll Plaza before we convoyed  to the mamak shop.




Most of the Seremban guys were in 2 door coupes - with 1 in an original e36 M3 and another with a very gravitating external mod red e36.

I was told it is not a standard M3 (3.0L) but a M3 Evo (3.2L)!!
Ah Kok's really uniquely done ride! Very friendly chap!
This picture does not do it justice.... it's much nicer in real life!

Hands down - the nicest, unique and attractive rims + brakes combo of all cars of the day


Red Arrow also got some attention as some people noticed an intercooler tucked behind the bumper. 


How lar wouldn't you notice?
Some of them asked if they could see the engine. He obliged sportingly and popped the hood. This quickly attracted a lot of attention and a lot of people came flocking to have a look. Lots of curious questions and photo snapping. 


However, I don't know if it is just the "purist" in some or some just born being a$$h0les, but it is sad when there is ALWAYS 1 in every gathering that will piss on everyone's parade. A reason why I stopped going for any car TTs for a long time... 


Personally, I think it's ok to have an opinion. It is even ok to state your opinion that you don't like it or whatever is on your mind. What I really cannot stand is when you stand at a slight distance, talk to someone else just loud enough in the background and diss a person's ride to reach the owner's ear. I don't own this ride and I was annoyed as hell. I respect Sifu Gee for keeping cool and ignoring it. You could sense some of the other regular forummers just feeling ashamed to be associated with that a$$ clown.


I would have handle the situation very differently. Very.... Either man-up and say you don't like something in public OR stand far away enough and speak what ever you want in the confines of your own quiet space. Jack ass....
