What do you do when you meet an M3, IS F, or RS4 on the road?

And? Whats wrong with the "old" one?
Of course its the old one, its a 2005. I like certain aspects of it better than the 221 anyway, although I would take a 221 600 or designo 550 over this one.
its slow? of course its slow, its glacial, its like molasses, snails move faster. But if I wanted a fast car, I would have bought one (which I already did), and If I wanted a C63, I also would have bought one (but I don't).

OH!! Forgot to mention...I saw a pretty hot young woman driving an IS F this morning. It was the first blue one I've seen outside of a Lexus showroom. They sound pretty good, actually, and she was driving it in a "sporty" way.

I don't know about you guys, but I think the IS-F is horrendous looking. The IS 250/350 on the other hand looks pretty nice. I've only seen one IS-F and one C63 around town while I've seen two new m3 sedans and 3 or 4 m3 coupes.

I passed a red one the other day. Didn't really like it. I prefer the hood and tail pipes on my wife's IS350.

I think it looks better in black. That bulge on the hood isn't quite as obvious when it's in black.

Ooooh I don't doubt the performance aspect, but I was speaking in terms of looks. I would like to test drive one to see. I might just go test drive an m3, is-f, and rs4 this weekend for ****s and giggles.

Generally, people above the age of say, I don't know, 17, generally don't care for neon or whatever LED lights to come out from underneath their vehicles. Being slight more reserved with exterior appearance modifications may be something you acquire once you leave high school.
As I mentioned, I like the 221, but would be hard pressed to give up my leather dash/door panels/alcantara headliner, distronic, and color combination for a standard S550. Now a designo S550 with the sport package or the 600/65 and I'd gladly trade.

Oliverk has valid points about streetracing and why not to do it. I too, have seen what happens to the cars that ph*uc*k up in a street race with all the blood inside of them. It is not a pretty sight nor does it smell too good in the summer if there is brain matter splattered in the back and the coroner didn't clean it all up.
But IMO, Sebring just brought up a topic for conversation. He has a family and a career and I doubt he will do anything to endanger that.
