I always assume there is always a faster car, or someone with more money to modify, or someone who is a better driver. I hope I can learn from these people. If I'm not, I ignore them.
Owning a car has never been a criterium to say something usefull about it. That's why I generally value professional journalists driving all kind of cars all day long more than the average joe that only drives that single specific car.

When I would own a M135i, it will not put my opinion above the one of Steve's. I could only conclude that maybe my preferences lay a bit different.
