Delusional Car Owners

I was leaving my sons school yesterday and I was next to a Black Caynee GTS with blacked out rims and red calipers. Nice looking truck.

The owner comes out and I say

"Hey, I like that truck"

the reply was "and I like your car"

Kidding I say "Wanna trade"

the reply "Nahhh, I think im a little be faster than you"

I replied "If you say so... Have a good one"





My 5 year old was in the car and he even said "Whaaaat? There is no way that truck is faster than you"

Nope he was serious, most guys like that are. You can only laugh and move on.

Nola, just speaking in general on those types of situations. No confusion...

Yeah, he wasnt kidding at all. He really thought his truck was faster. I would have said "Ya think so? Lets run real quick" and game him a good dose of reality but I have my son and so did he.

Unfortunately, you fed his ego when you started the conversation by complimenting his truck...

C63 AMG Coupe P31
i guess this is as good a place to post this as any:

a friend of mine has a brand new maserati 4.7 two door and he is not a racer. so...since we will never race, he has declared himself the unofficial winner if we were to race lol. I was wondering what you guys thought would happen if we did race. his car is stock and my mods are listed in my sig. ive had two people tell me that the maserati would win? one was a car guy and the other doesnt know s|-||T about cars but had to put his two cents in anyway.

I looked up the stats on the car and it has 433 hp 361 tq and weight 4100 lbs. I would think that it would be close at least if not a win for me? I know that that ferrari engine it has in it is a hard charger so i definitely wouldnt race for pinks, just in case

what do you guys think?

thanks

You have nothing to worry about . He wont even stand a chance, even against a BONE STOCK C63.

Bone stock, you'd tear him a new one :-)

He definitely knocks us out in the looks department though...that Maserati is one gorgeous GT.

He would need to have the Gran Turismo "S" model to make it interesting. Even then I think you'd take him.

Why did you call it a "Truck"? That probably set his prude protection forcefield to on...

Because they would blot out the sun. Clearly.

Besides, who carries around rulers that big?

it is a gramturismo S as any maserati with the 4.7 is the S model.....you would still beat him....the only thing holding me back from replacing my car with a granturismo S is the speed department, when you are used to a certain level of performance, it is hard to lose that.

I don't understand statements like this. A stone stock laguna seca edition runs 12.3 @123.xx faster than my K1 C63. A stone stock new GT500 will hand my car it's lunch all day long.

Yeah I understand people are putting up awesome times in the 11.xxx's but not in street trim. I mean how many of you drive around with only the drivers seat in the car?

but most of these people seem to be C63 owners.
