Respect To The Amg

I was driving back to San Diego last Sunday on the 5 South Fwy near Camp Pendleton. 2pm nice sunny day with very light traffic. I spotted black Porsche 911 in front so I passed him doing 80, looked at my rear view mirror and see if he would speed up. What do you know, he got right aside me, rolled down his window and I was getting ready for some action. I gave him the go ahead signal, he shook his head and pointed at my V8 Kompressor side badge. Cool, respect to the AMG so I gave him a peace sign and continued cruising home. Hope I didn't bore you guys.
