Challenges

[Stealth01]

That's just the guys in my office. If I expand to the whole building, I'd have to add two Camaro SS, 5 or so Corvettes, a Porsche Carrera 4S, a 69 Firebird convertible, buttloads of Audis and BImmers, etc. Big building...lots of people.

Ok, I will tuck my tail between my legs and go home

LOL, well, if it helps, it's three buildings full of military, retired military, government civilians, and contractors. Probably...3000 people, if I had to guess.

I got challenged yesterday by a new Nissan Altima 3.5? This guy was def trying to see what the speed6 was all about.. revving at me at lights, speeding up and slowing down.. So I got fed up real quick and showed him how the launch control worked.. he did not try anything else after that.

At my old job back in '05 we had a couple Evo 8s, a bugeye WRX on spray that was in the 12s, my SRT4, an MR2 Turbo, a Roush Mustang GT, and a few modded Jetta 1.8Ts. Nothing really high end, but a lot of fun rides.

Speaking of 335i's, I'm hoping to get a 335xi for the wife when her Impreza lease is up. Some pretty good lease deals on them if you can come up with 5k down.

One of those completely embarrassed me a few years back when I had the 6S. I thought I'd get ahead of him and merge before him, but he left me in his dust.

He wouldn't now.

Yeah, I'd love one of those. The sequential turbos give you max torque from 2000 RPM. Wow.

I had a run in with an altima coupe on HWY 115. Was not impressed as I pulled on him and never looked back. Was the 3.5L too (not sure if it was auto or manual though).

Yep, and 330whp/350wtq with a catback and a tune. They respond very well to mods.

Challenged by a black 2007 RS4 today. I was following him through traffic, using him as my blocking back. Not speeding, just getting around the old people, dump trucks, and morons. A light ahead changed. i got in the right lane to get out from behind him and was first in line. He swerved out of his line and got behind me, obviously wanting to embarrass me. Right about 55, he blew by me like I was standing still. ANd he was grinning like a thief, too.

But that car was DAMN sexy. I think that's now at the top of my wish list. It's gorgeous, hella fast, and has AWD. PURE SEX.

But it's NA Get an RS6. Biturbo V8 AWD goodness. Plus, they are way cheaper since they are a few years older. You can get an '03 RS6 (I believe the only year they were made) with 50-60k miles for 30-35k. The '07 RS4s with 40k miles are still 45-50k.

To the v6 Sonata that kept trying to challenge me coming home from Target on Powers: seriously? Get real.

Really? Only Hyundais that ever challenge me are the Tibbies. LOL. Korea-fail.

Had some dork in a newer Accord V6 coupe try to challenge me on the highway on the way in to work tonight. I had the cruise set at 80, got over in the left lane to pass him just past the AFA. He speeds up and starts pacing me when I get beside him. I didn't think he really wanted to go (come on it's an Accord) so I just downshifted to 5th and passed him and got over, slowed back down to 80 and reset the cruise. He sped up too and after we passed a semi he ends up doing a 95mph flyby and then exits at Baptist Rd. What I don't get is why he even sped up in the first place when he was doing between 70-75 until I tried to pass him.

Or both, lol:

I'd still have to go with the RS4, NA or not. I've never been to fond of the RS6

[erod550]

Holy crap. I thought he WAS accelerating already and then bam he actually got on it, lol. Yea I much prefer the looks and size of the RS4. If you're going to add stuff to it then it would be a fun car but stock it barely has more power than a C5 and for the amount of money I'd be spending, I'd want something much faster than a C5, hehe. If I'm spending 45-50k I'd probably just get a C6, or better yet, this:
