Nissan Maxima thinks they're fast??

Was at the 404 major mackenzie ramp south.. sitting in my friends c63.. we were doing 80.. gradually picking up speed on the ramp but this white maxima decides to tailgate us on the ramp and flashes us... we were like wtf? on the highway we go up to around 110.. and he's still tail gating us.. so my friend desides to punch it.. and vrooom.. byebye to the maxima.. hahaha we slowed down afterwards.. as we got to our exit and the maxima was wayyy behind us.. I think he later found out that no way in hell he could pass us so he gave up after trying to "out accelerate us"... didn't want to race him but he insisted..haha..quite sad that it wasn't as fast as I thought it was.. but luckily.. when we were heading home.. there was a m3 in front of us..at first I guess they didn't know it was a c63 behind them.. must've been surprised that a c-class could keep up with him.. ahhaha thn my friend went next to him and downshifted and just dusted him. Thought we lost him after the light.. or he gave up or something but after couple seconds we saw him right up our tail.. revved abit and we had to make a left and he went straight. It would've been fun if we played with him more.. but the maxima trying to race us was mad funny...

yep.. the 4 door sports car.. i think it was the new one? lemme google maxima and see which one it was.. it seemed like it was pretty new one.. with bi-xeons (at least I think) and a pano roof? it was very skinny though and had quad exhausts..

When the car that's trying to goad me into racing is an obviously slower car (at least in stock form), I usually don't bother. There's no glory in beating a Maxima, Prelude, or Rav4. Come to think of it, I don't think there's any glory in beating those cars even if they're modded.

If you win, it's expected. If you lose, then you look retarded. Not sure if there's any fun in that.

Maybe he just wanted to see the C63 get punched?

He knew he wasn't faster.

I did the same thing when I was in my stock bugyeye WRX. I blipped the throttle at a 996 TT. Ahh, when he punched it was glorious.

You get that when you drive a big dog ride. They be admirers not punks.

I had a Corolla S lined up with me at the stop light and when it turned green, he just stomps it. I gave him 6 CLs and caught up with him.

LOL! I wonder if they like to race every c-class they see.. The area that I live have SO MANY c- class it's like seeing a civic. On some of the major streets you see at least 5.. if not more just crusing past a couple lights.. If the toyota guys want to race the c-class in my area.. they are gonna be very busy.. ahhaha
