I kind of like those - no insults there!
Don't you love the opinions of people who have no basis for them?
One of my high school classmates looked down on my '63 Belair, telling me that he would never own a used car. I told him that every car was used as soon as it left the dealership. I then asked what kind of car he owned. He didn't - drove daddy's car when daddy let him. Of course.
Smile and drive safely!

My dad had a 63' Belair as his first car. that was in about 1969, the car had 9300 miles on it. He would tell us about how it had a heater, and if you were lucky, and it was wet, the rear tires would chirp.
A favorite of mine I use on the guy at my shop that drives a G35 is to tell him to look at the first three letters of his VIN.

Tommy there is only one way to win this one; you must steal his girlfriend and he must find out about it by seeing the two of you in your E30. However, he does have the right to kill you and wizz on your grave for doing so.
a quick shot to this guys pills by accident in PE is always a solid fix to a problem like you have
Tommy, remind him you are featured in multiple national magazines and that he is still a (I was going to write douche but I don't want your mom hurting anyone by have to dig a REALLY deep patio) twit.
Offer to compare facts:
1: BMW drivers get more. 2: Focus drivers most often wear skirts.
<---- Counterpoint of Fact #1
Thank you Josh, and to your counterpoint, remember Race Drivers drive Miatas.
I also own a BMW. I'm one confused boy, apparently.
Nope, you are a race driver that is getting some... I see no confusion here.
I own two VW Beetles...
It really doesn't do any good to insult his car. He's not into cars...

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with home field advantage.
If your friend wants to test the top speed of his car at an airfield in the middle of the night, politely decline.
To get back at him, next time he tries to rile you with complete b.s., put your hands in your pockets, and just happen to find your time slips from the last auto-x you were at.
"Oh hey, that's the 48.07 I got last weekend when I was driving the car that I actually put effort into making be mine."

Amen.
You can always buy a car. But you cant buy skill.
Focus = Slowcus. 
Ford didn't think they could build anything worse than the Escort. The Focus is proof that yes they could.
Infiniti = you'll never finish paying for it.
Tommy,
Here's hoping your buddy is just a product of his environment, and not a total toolbag. By the way, how does he already have a Focus if he can't drive yet? (Mom's car that he drives with his permit?) It is kinda strange for a kid to have a car before his license unless, like you, he is working on it.
BMW = Bought Myself by Working
Beating Mindless Wimps
Just ask him which is cooler.....
A BMW that you have modified yourself by working hard, and learning things you can use later....or
a 370Z in drag......oooohhh he can get those fancy chrome wheels though!
If you need a car to help you get some, then you have some problems. For instance...you have no game. I have a friend that could quite possibly be considered the missing link, drives a Nissan Stanza, yet his game pulls him the most attractive women.......baffles my mind
Tommy, just ignore him lol, you know you worked hard for you car and to get it where it is at, plus you don't see E30s on the road all that much. Just those simple facts are enough to make your car way cooler, plus you are the offspring to the creator of this awesome magazine, if he keeps his Focus or gets a G37 he's just running around in the run of the mill everyday cars......
The car you have is cooler than the car you don't.
I think I'll just laugh quietly when he goes about his bragging, and pwn him on the autocross course.
Oh, and order a yard of cement.

You can change "First On Race Day" to "berkeleyed On Race Day."
Tommy--
When you're older, you'll realize what an absolute jackass this kid is being.
One day, his parents' net worth won't define him and he'll be left wondering why he can't buy that G37 himself.
Old cars make for great stories. Expensive new cars that you parents bought don't have the same charm. Hard not to come across as a complete jackknob when bargging about something your parents handed to you.
Your car is cooler--period.
