Lightly modded S4 TII vs BMW 330ci, maybe
 
S4 TII with catless exhaust, my own personal streetport, Rtek 2.1 ECU (although untuned), running ~12psi on stock turbo (with enlarged wg). Suspension mods, but not particularly relevant.

What I'm pretty sure was a BMW 330ci. I didn't spend much time behind him :lol: so I couldn't get a good look at the badge. Tail lights were pretty rectangular with illuminated secondaries below them (with headlights on). Very much like this:http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/5...4800x60.th.jpg


The specs sound about right for how he did...

ANYWAY, I was in a bit of a rush to get somewhere on the interstate and I see this car come up behind me as I'm waiting for someone ahead to get out of the way. I romp on it, dingleberry follows suit. He followed me for a good 10 minutes or so, only ever catching up when I had to slow for traffic. My best guess at the time was that he was topping out around 120mph, poor guy :blush: :egrin: But for apples to apples, even when we'd jump at a clearing I pulled away from him from the start. He pulled up next to me once when I was waiting again, but because of the nearly opaque window tint I couldn't tell if he was having fun or mad that my beat up 25yo Mazda was kicking his modern BMW's ass. Eventually we just went our separate ways. I was smiling all the way home :hah:

I actually raced one of these a few months ago. He was mildly modded. I had Rtek 1.7 550/720 injectors, walbro, hks cone, dp and apexi n1 exhaust running 5psi. I didnt destroy him but beat him pretty good.

Could have been a 325 or 328Ci also, which are pig slow enough that a modern mini van can beat. the 330Ci is slightly quicker, but nothing impressive with a 6.5 0-60.
