Im a huge BMW buff and my ultimate dream is to have all the bmw M cars ever made. In addition to M3s and M5s and M6s, I dream of M535is, M635csis and 2002 Turbos(an M car in all forms but the badge) and of course the M1

BEEM3R has both beemer as well as M3 cause the E30 M3 Evo II is undying favourite

Plus BEEMER was taken, my 1st choise ///M was taken and so was Mpower.

sriny_blr · 18th September 2006, 18:27

Very nice thread indeed!!

my name is srinivas and have used id in yahoo as sri_blr, as i like to be called as sri. many of my friends from first company where i worked opened yahoo the same time with _blr after their names.

blr is stands for bangalore where i'm from

when i first went to states people there cudn't call me as srinivas so they used to call me as sriny and after that i started using sriny_blr also as my ID most of places.
and it continues...

Shan2nu · 18th September 2006, 20:57

I was actually looking at "Vtec Guy", since that was my ID at Formula-India.

But then, i thought Shan2nu would be easier for others to remember and relate to my name.

I was searching for a handle name when I used to play the facinating game Halo by microsoft. was creating something unusual and hence from past 4 year I have this nick name used extensively.

pugram · 19th September 2006, 09:29

I have been fascinated by the TUD5 Peugeot 309 GLD and read some where about peugeot being called "PUG". One of the best cars India had ever got in that segment.

PUG + "RAJA"RAM = PUGRAM.

Cheers

great thread mate.. anyway.. i love BMW's for the way they look feel and drive.. and not to mention they make the best engines in the world. and they use VANOS on all their engines.. its variable valve timming control.. like what VTEC is to honda, VVTi to toyota... etc etc..
