FC vs 525 i

well, today was a good day, on the way back from a friends house there is a light that is about 1.4 mile from the turn to my house and it starts on a downhill slope. sitting there at the light waiting for it to turn green and a jet black 2001+ BMW 525i pulls next to me, two 'wiggers' are rideing inside. I wasnt sure if it was the kids car, but it was a 5 speed, and he DID rev at me. so i look over and i'm like ****. i can't beat this guy. So i rev back at him, and hold it at 3500 light turns green and were off! from 0 to the top of 3rd (about 90mph) we were neck and neck. the whole way granted he was all stock. but still, those things run 0-60 in roughly 7sec stock. i was pretty happy with my baby, humm. wonder what'll happen when i get my header installed.. muahahahaha muahahaha. 1.3liter power baby yeah!

Good thing it was only a 2.5 liter and weighs in like a tank. A 540i probably wouldve seriously owned you.
