Killed a 2008 535i on San Mateo Bridge with my TII
I'll post pictures of my Rx7s sometime this week. I have a 95 & 91, both turbos...
Anyways, the 91 Turbo II I picked up about 6 months ago only has a dp & cb. Driving around 80 on San Mateo bridge and all of a sudden a newer white 5 series was tailgating me. Having had a 05 530i in the past I knew what these E60 are capable of. The car in front switched lanes and I popped it in forth and it was on! By the end of forth I was going about 120mph and the E60 is about 6-7 cars back!! I was like, that was expected. But then when i slowed down to see what kinda E60 it was...it was a 2008 535i! Holly **** I thought these things are pretty quick since they're twin turboed and they have 300 horses and has the same speed as the v8 550i.
Should've seen the look on the guy's face! He thought he was sick with his $60k ride. Thought he owned me but he got smoked!
He would've gotten killed if I was driving my 95 FD.
Anyways, thought I'd share this incident. I love my rotaries!
