Same as those who refer to their M2/3/4/5/6 as a M car, or "the ///M". Pretentious as F. You took the effort to type out the 3 freaking stripes, and you can't even call your car by its name, which would have saved you 2 whole keystrokes.

I also tend to avoid typing out chassis codes. I absolutely know why people do it and how it removes any ambiguity, but to me it's just annoying as hell to read "E9x" or "F8x" all the damn time. Don't know why it triggers me so much, but I cringe when I read it so often.
