Mustang vs BMW.

Well not really a kill story but kind of funny. I was driving back from class today, I was in a hurry since I had to be somewhere. So as I am driving an older mustang with an obnoxiously loud exhaust was sitting at the light and I was behind him. Anyways I am in a hurry so the light turns green he goes WOT and I follow but he only goes WOT in 1st gear and lets off. I use the BMW handling and quickly move over a lane while continuing to speed down the road. Next thing I know I have this mustang coming up behind me, and he puts his hand outside the window and is giving me the middle finger. Mind you I am going 60mph in a 45 zone in the slow lane and he has plenty of room to pass.

Next light I had a car in front of me and he moved over and was 1 car behind me in the other lane. The car in front of me decided to go supper slow and so does the mustang in the other lane, a small gap opens up and bam BMW handling again I moved in on it with the mustang trying to go WOT to block me out of cutting him off. Again his hand comes out and he gives me the middle finger. I continue to drive on he comes up behind me again and gives me the middle finger. So I move over and slow down and was going to return the favor and exchanged a few words since we both had our windows down... Well the guy slows down and turns down a side street...

I realize I probably deserve the middle finger for cutting him off but not for passing him when he was going WOT only in 1st then proceeding to drive 35mph in a 45 zone trying to be a tard and not let me by on the second encounter.

You seem to be very infatuated with BMW handling, but regardless, that Mustang was probably not a GT. Amazingly, most of the aggressive 'Stang drivers I've seen have the V6 model.
