M-This!

That couldnt be a better statement for me today during lunch.

Running around today I stumble upon a M3. Very nice looking machine I must say. Dark Grey with blacked out rims. Very nice indeed.

Hes ahead of me getting onto the parkway. Im about 3 cars back. We merge and the left lane is open. I hammer it blowing past the car in front of me and as I pass him throw it into N and give it a good Vrooom!!

and the fun begins...


Very cool guy. Just pacing me waiting for traffic to clear. On this parkway there is a spot going to the beach where it opens up and no one is on it during the week. He pulls next to me... we pace... I was.. 60MPH... he hits it first.. I hammer it. Ccccccyyyyaaaaa.... 6 cars at least.

I slow and wait.. he pulls behind and signals.. I get off where he was heading. He slow down. He starts down shifting with me. His cars sounds sick. Big time exhaust work done. We go again from a 20 roll. I let him jump first and we go. I pull past him and get about 2 cars on him.

Next light.

"Holy Sh%t that car is an animal!!"
"You got work done??"

I didnt have the heart to say "tune only" I said "Yeah, I got some stuff done" "She has about 530 at the crank"

He replies "Ohhh thank god!!" "I was about to say!!"

I said "Your car is really nice and sounds sick!!"

His reply "Thanks, All exhaust"


We both go on our way.

^^^ Whoever is driving, I have been wondering the same thing.

Cool story, TS. I like the sound of M3's. I'm sure the one you ran sounded really good.

But, I'm sure your car sounded better blowing by him.

I'm surprised he was cool. I had one throw the "your lucky we are not in the track" comment at me after I pulled a full bus on his BMW. Nice raping out there.

Excellent job there!! It's awesome you didn't run into one of those Bimmer drivers that are sore losers. "You're lucky my car isnt' DCT" or as Solder said "I can smoke you on the Track!" lol

I wonder if a stock or mild bolt-on M3 can beat a P31 C63 or a tuned C63 on a track. Seems like the extra power in a tuned C63 might be able to make up for the M3's better handling and run a quicker time at a track.

Nice!! A buddy of mine just got a new M3...great car but he added a cat-back exhaust for a much, much better exhaust note than stock.

Nice raping!! It doesnt sound surprising. I ran a stock v-8 m3 when I was stock-I beat it by couple cars. Now with a tune its a joke.

i ate a M5 for dinner on the way home, it was a 50 or so to 120 sprint. i don't think he had it on 500 sport because it was bad for him maybe 4 - 5 cars. at the light he smiled and gave the thumbs up. he was a nice guy. i think the OP and I must have fond the only 2 nice M drivers in the US

how in the world did you loose that? Short of a downpour, you should not have lost that. (which you should not be racing in in the first place)

did you have traction switched of? in manual to long?
