Is it that an M3 with many mods and 1k lighter in weight can beat a stock E55? Thats the arguement?
There is no argument. Only passionate members flirting.

That Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2003 sounds very interesting Rock.

Haha. I am just poking some fun at another arrogant dude. He'll soon be gone and we'll be picking on the next guy that comes in here thinking he is a gift from the heavens...

I'm done for now. This was getting very boring, since the talk just cycles. Maybe I can just start cutting and pasting from to bottom to keep him amused?

I'm off to go 4X4ing with the Jeep.

I was driving to my local fish store today to donate a nasty 14 inch wolf fish (huge teeeth....looks just like a snakehead....eats crayfish, other fish, etc.). I had him in a 5 gallon bucket with about 1 gallon of water in the bucket.

About 1/4 mile from the store I spot a red Porsche...I get closer...turbo...closer....3 spoke wheels. 2007 997TT!!! No 30-day tag so I am hoping he will play.

I cut in front of another lesser Benz from the left lane and get right on his ***. He is in the right lane and we are in traffic doing 30mph on 45mph road. I then realize this could be awful if we race since I have a fish that if it gets out will be flopping everywhere. And it has large teeth...just like a pirahna.

I decide to fasten the fish in and reach all the way over and press the electronic button to secure the passenger seat to the bucket against the glove compartment. Pic below. I then tailgate him and pass by the fish store...at this point I am commited to stake him out.

About 1/2 mile down the road we catch a red light and I am right behind him and a minivan is in the left lane. I realized there was no one in front of him and got excited.

I switch off the ESP so that I do not bog. Light turns green and he eases out then floors it. About 1.5 cars (20 feet) are between us when he kicks it. I hammer it in M mode at 15 mph and quickly pull into the left lane around the minivan.

I notice I quickly reel him in and by the time I hit 60 I am even with him...I did not even shift and let the car shift in M mode....I let off at 95 mph as a curve is ahead and he is a solid 2-2.5 cars back. Even if he didn't have his overboost on I am sure I would have torn him up still. Basically he got beat by 4-4.5 cars.

We catch a red light and I roll down the passenger window down to try to talk to him. He is about 40 ish. Its gotta be a long and uncomfortable 2 minute red light...He doesn't even acknowledge me and just looks straight ahead but his son...probably 7 or so looks at me like I just stabbed daddy's brand new christmas present in the heart. I don't know who felt worse...dad or son. I made a u-turn and turned in my killer fish in one piece.

Pics of my beast below.
Slightly off topic but could you post those pics of the E55 grills again, I can't seem to locate those? Do you know which ones I mean?

if there's so much fuss in a thread where e55 beat 911TT,
imagine how much MORE fuss would there be if the thread was about 911TT beats e55

on a 2 cent note, M cars are no joke, some AMG>M's and some M's >AMG for sure; each have it's own good qualities and driver preferences
thing is though, i'd take that 911TT over an AMG or an M lol

Eurosport,

I don't really care what you think about the hierarchy of German automobile makers.

I am curious as to what kind of aberrant, twisted activities you are involved in.
My one flunked-out semester of psychology tells me I should be concerned about your sig:


Please tell me that you do not have anyone locked in your basement.

but

SCM3- you did in fact originally offer to pay for Jangy to come race you. Changing your mind and offering to pay only if he wins adds more bad press to an M3 crew already having to cope with the fact our cars can be ordered with no roof ( the idea of M convertables is ridiculous) and that 90% of owners wear a beanie/cap when driving even the coupes.

Everyone I know of with a boosted M3 claims that getting the power to the ground is nearly impossible.

My money is on the E55.
