Thank you mister M3 driver!!

so last night my car was being towed in Nashville because it was
parked in an apartment space and I did not know I was supposed to be parked
there. One of the guys who lived there called a tow truck, even though there were like a bunch of open spaces.
Anyways I was short on cash to pay them to let my car go and a random guy gave me enough money to pay the tow truck to let go of my car.
My car would have gotten torn up if it was moved because of a dip and the slope. The random guy said I dont want to see a fellow bimmer towed and I thanked him and said after
I get my car moved I would get him his money
back that he gave me, but he said that it was alright even though I insisted on paying him.
After I parked he was gone, but since I was still madover the car almost being towed I went outside to leave and then driving by was the guy driving an E92 M3.

I want to thank you if you are on here.
And let you know that you are one of a group of many good people left on the Earth!

I know very few of us owners will witness another being towed. I can't be 100% sure because I have never been in that position (yet), but I think I would help a fellow owner out myself.

I was in such a hurry to pay the guys so they would not tow my car, but it
was something close to 20$ maybe. Who cares how much even if a dollar, its the principal of the thing
