.... nothing to brag about, it is a previous model....
Not a fair fight, but......what a rush.....
Location: Key Bridge (3 lane each way), Washington D.C.
It is perfectly legal to make right turn on red light.
* I never floored my accelerator in my life *
I was approaching red light at the intersection and need to make a right turn on to Key Bridge. ( I know and I see I can make a right turn w/out dangerous to the traffic)
As I about to make a right turn, there is a black New-model BMW 5 series on the FAR Left Lane start honking at me and I can hear his tires roaring noise as my light just turn red. (as he is telling me to stop)
I make the right turn anyway and stay on the RIGHT Lane (slow lane)
This ******* think he own the road, move to the center lane and continue to honking at me!!!!!!!!!
Obviously, I got pissed as he is one car length ahead of me, I floored my E420 for the first time of my life. (he is driving 2006 525i)
holy cow!!!!!!! I have no idea my 10 years old car got that much punch, I over took him and give HIS girlfriend (I assume that's his girl friend all dress up and sexy) a SICK window kiss before over the bridge!!!!!!!!!!!
Then I open my window and wave (NOT BIRD HIM) and signal him to catch up!!!!! (obviously, he didn't)
Man............what a rush....I didn't know I have the evil side in me!!!!!

Just think of it as one way street w/ three lanes, and I need to right turn into that one way street.
(he is one the fast lane, and I am only trying to turn into slow lane)

Raymond, from the sat photo, we can clearly see that No_Clue's white E420 was in the right lane, whereas the BMW was in the center lane. The only error in No-Clue's recount was that the BMW was plainly a white one, not black as he recalled.

haha...I got you guys point.
Okay, I don't have super fast ride like you guys nor have the sense of "seek-and-kill" skill.
It is merely an one time incident, just thought it was interesting.
I should leave this section to AMG-owner only.

Yep, helped me to feel the moment.
A friend of mine just bought a new 530i. He wants to pillage my 230K. Eff, I'm going to be taking it in the shorts. We are going to buy Rims for his car tonight. I'm going to convince him to buy some HEAVY replicas. "Hey man, the DUB look is in..."
I'll live vicariously through you.

GWU and Johns Hopkins? I would have thought these schools would have done a better job of helping their students with sentence structure. Fortunately for us, your Google Earth skills saved the day.

Anyway, glad that my inadequate English sentence structure amused you.

Awesome write up!
A few weeks ago a similar event happened to me. I was making a right hand turn out of a business driveway onto a four lane road, two on each side. The lane farthest to the right was clear (the one I was SLOWLY going into) while the other one had a Silver Honda Civic driving in it.
Don’t know what the guys issue was, maybe he thought I was going across both lanes, but he started to violently honk his horn at me as I merged in. I could understand a quick toot – like “Hey I’m in the other lane” but to lay on the horn?? He could have started an accident by startling me or other drivers.
Anyway here’s the best part, the guy ended up turning into the same bank I was going to. I parked right next to him. He gets out of his car surprised and worried that I was following him and then asks if there’s a problem. I said: “Yea, there is. There’s two lanes there buddy – no need to road rage on your horn.” He said “Whatever” and quickly left to walk into the bank. I think he really started sweating when I followed him in! He went all the way up to the teller, where I just stopped at the ATM. While I was leaving I caught him looking back and our eyes locked. I gave him a wave and the best sh*t eating grin.
Not to hijack your thread – but some people really have to chill on the road!

Yeah them Jersey drivers are something else, although I gotta tip my hat to New York drivers. Last weekend I was with my GF in her car when it was clipped by someone trying to cut her off in Brooklyn - WHILE WE WERE IN A FUNERAL PROSESSION!!

I saw that happen several times during the last procession I was in. I think the problem is that many people do not understand the meaning of daytime headlights anymore. Some funeral homes give out blue flags that attach to the driver's window.
But then there are those that think "oh, there's my exit, F.U."

Its saddening the lack of respect some people have. Everyone had their flashers on, with a funeral tag in the windshield. Her car in particular was only 2 vehicles behind the hearse. I guess the guy just couldn't wait to make a right turn into the lane we were all in.
