Infuriated an E92 M3 owner
Caught a light with an E92 M3 ('08+ coupe). It was probably a guy in his early 30s with a hot blonde girlfriend. I was in the left turning lane and he was in the right lane (3 lanes total). I had a friend with me who wanted me to race him. I wasn't really up for it. The light turns green and my friend sticks half his body out the passenger window, looks the guy right in the eye and gives him a vicious thumbs down. I just laugh, thinking nothing of it, and we keep driving.
We turn off the main road to a twisty side road near an industrial park. I look up in the rear view and there is the M3 and he is pissed! He is riding my *** and everything. I make a left down another wide open side street. He's still on my *** so floor it in 2nd up through the top of 3rd. He is staying on my tail but I think I very very slowly started to inch ahead of him, touge style. It wasn't exactly a "race" but if I had to call it, it was pretty much a draw. My turn was coming up so I quickly slowed down and made a right.
He flies by us revving his engine (bouncing off the limiter) while his girlfriend has her head out the window screaming "**** YOU!!!!!!!" while flipping us the bird. It was unexpected, bizarre, and pretty damn funny.
Car is a '94 street ported with stock sequential twins, dyno'd 300whp.

Newer M3's are ******* beastly. You would've gotten hammered off the light and he would have nailed you in the twisties, but I'm sure it was interesting to watch and partake in. I kinda want to see a head to head run of the two cars now

Nothing cooler than passengers that egg on races like this... oh wait.Just a pet peeve of mine- YOU'RE NOT DRIVING ************, KEEP YOUR HANDS IN THE CAR AND SHUT THE **** UP!!!
And I thought you did this with the Eclipse in your avatar and was about to ask for a mod list with the
on standby, but I could see a 300whp FD at least keeping up with an E92.

Stock for stock... No. The M3 is much quicker than the 335i. I'm sure however that an already boosted platform is easier to make big hp numbers than the built to the tilt n/a 4 liter v8 in the M3.

But from what I have been hearing, the turbo'd i6 is very tunable.
I'd still rock a e92 335i over the m3, as I am a hardcore i6 fan.

What would you have done, had they pulled up beside you and Bonnie had put 2 in the drivers door, while Clyde tried to run you off the road?

I thought that was a 350z you're in? Either way there is one thing that neither the OP nor the people in this video considered even for a brief moment. What if the person in the other car HAS A GUN?

I had an M3 owner go way out of his way to get right on my *** a week or so ago, then when traffic clears he floors it and does a flybye like a stupid ricer....are Beemer owners insecure or what? I half thought about running him down and blowing his doors off but decided he wasn't worth my gas money. Big boat.
