It's good to see people with these cars actually using them - even if they were towed to the strip. It always amazes me when someone lucky enough to have such a vehicle never drives it, and sells it 5 years later with 2000kms on the clock.

I wish I was there!!!

man thats insane. makes me want to take a trip there just to see their car scene and get to those drags.....those ferraris....my god. i cant get that excited when i have to go to bed. joisus!

not trying to be racist at all, so dont take it the wrong way, but it just looks so weird seein guys dressed like that with those kinda cars. but fark, they sure have taste in cars! thats some crazy shit.

lol yeah thats what i was gonna say...but still, they like get pretty into that religion, and from what ive heard, if you're a woman in their country, you'd wanna do what they say, or it could be bad news for you :)

maybe these drag guys are chilled....with those cars, why wouldnt u be!

i remember seein a vid of a yellow 33 in dubai....dragging a bike up the massive highway they have there with guys standin all over the road side....they sure have a passion for nasty cars, and they use them too

UAE is vey westernised these days and I think the locals are not as traditional as certain other Mid east countries where you may be beaten with a stick for wearing what she had on. These Shieks dont f**k around, they know what they want and they get what they want. They are just like us with a lot more money. The most beautiful (and most expensive) women in the world go to the UAE to entertain the locals just for the money. I am sure every one of the men in these pictures would have their own super model.

I spent 4 months this year in a neighbouring country which was a little more strict and westerners were not as welcome but you can tell that America is rubbing off on all these countries. We could still go to starbucks and Maccas, there is massive amounts of US dollars going into these countries at the moment. Over the counter they actually accept US dollars as easily as they accept their own currency. Just a little bit ironic i think.

Dubai/UAE's been western tradition and practices tolerant for a while now. Hence why their tourism sector does so much better than the other middle eastern countries.

Even when I stopped through Dubai a couple of years back I saw women not wearing burka's.

Its only in the really relgious countries they make the woman wear that..

LIke they do wear it in Dubai-but out west of the city area where they still have to obey all the rules.. Or if she may feel like she wants to then she can.. Also comes down to the husband, if hes strict and all the belifes..

Dubai is seriously a very beautiful place... Lucky my parents have some friends who live there.. So next time i go there, i got somewhere to stay.. But i would still love to go visit that 7 STAR HOTEL!!! damm..

They also got free local calls!!! hehhe..

UP until just recently, no one was allowed (That is, poeple from overseas) to purchase a house/units in dubai.. Their government is very strict..

But nice place to visit..

Same as in Qatar which sticks out off saudi arabia into the persian gulf. An excellent oppurtunity for investment. There is so much development going on in this place and prices will really boom for many years to come. They have one of the best supplys of oil in the middle east wich is yet to be tapped into, so u can understand why.

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
