How to introduce someone to an E55.

Yesterday I was going with my brother and his friend to the movies. My brothers friend had never been in my car and my brother said hey, you should show him how fast it is and let him sit up front. I said, a demo eh, ok

I got out onto some back roads out in the middle of nowhere, no traffic, no people, and some turns and lots of stop signs. Needless to say my foot rarely left the floor. Downshifted and accelerated out of every turn. Foot to floor coming out of every stop sign. After about 10 minutes of this non stop he started to look a little funny and said stop stop, pull over. I did and he jumped out of the door and threw up on the side of the road. My brother and I were dying laughing at him. He got back in and said thats the craziest thing he's ever experienced, please continue.
