Testing the M-cars or one summer examn

[1zippo1]

Hey,

I'm currently in my examns and don't really post anymore, but I had to tell you guys about this because I can't get it off my mind.

My dad called me half an hour ago and said that we could go and test drive ALL the BMW M models next weekend. It's some kind of testing day for doctors. Anyway, since I have a really hard examn on monday and I don't know one single page yet, I don't have a chance of succeeding if I don't study every day till then.

If I want to go and testdrive the M-cars I have to go back home and will certainly lose a whole day...

DAMN :x this sucks :cry:

I allways dreamed of something like that. I have never driven anything even remotly sporty yet :( The fastest car I've driven had 140hp (A6).

[Wutputt]

Maybe you should ask yourself the following question: if you start studying like hell till Monday, will you have a good chance of succeeding the exam?

If you don't, I would say go for the M test drive. If you have a real good chance of succeeding by studying hard, I would say skip the test drive. There will prolly come other interesting opportunities to drive some sporty vehicles in the future.

[ARMAN]

I'd go for M'ssssss :P but you have to decide for your own :(

[topgeartom]

That is an absolute bitch of a question, peronally, id go for the M cars.

[No.1]

Maybe think that if you study hard, missing the M-day, you will go on to pass, get a decent job and a great salary, and be able to afford one of these cars in the future.

A real tough choice IMO :?

[Fleischmann]

Tough question...but I guess education come first in this case...who knows, maybe somebody you will be able to afford one of the machines if you do well in studies :D

[Yablokov]

lol, study for the exam:P

maybe your dad will be able to test drive M's another time or year.

the cars will still be theer for you. but those exams only come once; If you dont take them head on you will miss your chance for progression.

[TT]

Yep, a though one. Knowing myself pretty well, I am 99% sure I would think "screw the exam, it will be easy" and will go test the M cars... but not so sure it is the smart decision!
Just beware in case you will be driving an E60 M5: check out your rearview mirrorw, you could see TT on his bicycle chasing down and trying to take pics :D

omg. ROFLMFAO LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!! havent laughed that much for quite some time now!!

Zippo, I have the answer right here:

You study for your examn, and I'll go and drive the cars and tell you how it went!

Deal? :D

[Yablokov]

rofl. sounds like a deal to me! u should even buy one of those hats that havea camera on it. so when he watches the vid. its like hes really there!!! :D:D:D:D

[dutchmasterflex]

whats the probleM? there's no question to be asked here..

[Vansquish]

I agree with dutchmasterflex, there's no probleM here...

...but only because you should be studying for your exam. If you don't think you'll be able to do reasonably well without that day of study, then it shouldn't even be a question in your mind. Test drive days, while few and far between, are generally not one-time affairs and the chance may come up again. Aside from that, if you screw your exams, the long-term prospects may not be as good, which might preclude you from buying/driving one of those vehicles in years down the road.

[dingo]

Quit college and go drive the BMW's!!!!! Then take lots of pics and videos and post them here for us to see :wink:
That might have been a bit selfish of me :P , but if you really think you can't pass without this day of studying then you better study - it has more long term consequences if you fail the exam than if you miss the drive day :wink:

[saadie]

i'd go for sure ... im also having exams .... tomorro is the last one .....
and if i had an offer of that kind .... i would GO !!! ...
and anyway ... u can put a couple of nights before exams .. no big deal :mrgreen:

[Cigarette1]

1zippo1 could you give me some more details on this event ?
thanks :wink:

[coombsie66]

As thamar said, even if you dont go, you'll get no work done and wont be able to concentrate as you'll be thinking about all the fun your missing the whole time.
Just work your balls off now buddy, and give yourself a nice M car treat. :D

[marktak]

hmm..tough one, what should I do....you wrote that you don't know one single page....so what is the chance in passing the exam? If it is a small chance, you might have to do it as well in your vacation...and even worse... you might miss a great day! IMO, your will have this opportunity just once in a "lifetime".....

If there is a great chance that you'll pass.......skip the exam as well, LOL!!! :D

[draak666]

He only stands to lose one summer holiday. :P

Where is zippo now BTW? I think he's studying like hell to be able to go testing. :D

[callen]

hey zippo, I dont understand the whole 'losing a day' thing. you can be studying at all times except while driving the car. If you think 2 hours (or hey lets say 5 hours even!!!) driving cars will make you lose a full 24 hours, then I think you have more to worry about then losing a day cause of a test drive....study hard in the meantime everyday until that test drive day, then take it easy on the studying that day, but still get in an hour or two! There is lots of time in a day, use it well.

First of all, I made a mistake, it's not this weekend, it's next week.

The studying like hell part is true, but I don't think that I can pull it off to go and testdrive those BMW's :cry:

My mom won't allow it she said. My mom and dad are cullently on vacation in France, but as soon as they are back I'm gonna give it another try. I will rather do this examn over in the summer. We'll see what happens...

And I can't give you more information about the event because my dad didn't tell me more then that.

now back to the books!
