Run in with audi s5...
Didn't have the chance to post this, but few days ago, had a run in with a audi s5 with a douche bag driver...
So this guy, kept riding my ***, switching lanes through traffic and doing ricer fly bys... 2-3 times... finally I had enough... At the next light, I caught up, and was right beside him lol... he looks over with this mean muggin face like he was in a v10 R8... haha. Anyways, I open the cut outs, and do a quick rev... light turns green, he hesitates, hesitates, so I left slowly, reaching 60kmh... he was barely going 45-50kms and decided to stay WELL back... hahaha funniest **** ever, I dunno, either he thought I was a poser (there are many amg posers around in our area) or he didnt realize wtf v8 kompressor meant... It's amazing how many cars I run into on the street, that want to "race" but its just pure comedy, because I know I will ruin their day, so I dont bother unless its something I think would be intresting to see... (Of course not on the street, I take it to the track
)
On the side note, that audi did have a mean grunt. (Aftermarket exhaust)

A stock E55 can take S5 anytime ! They are just good looking but very un-reliable. Bad experience with Audi .....specially turbo sucks after owning 3 years out of warranty due the mileage.

Yeah...but some folks can crank up the boost in the 335s to crazy levels...and they are AWD...so they might get you from a dig. After that it's the "Subbie WRX STi" effect...they run out of steam.

I see a lot of the Audi crowd around DC who drive around like tools...same thing for 3-series BMWs (non-M3). Not sure what it is about them. Hey, they might say the same about me since I smoke cigars while I drive and am covered with tattoos. So I don't know:-)
The Audi crowd does seem strung a little tight....

Problem is, 1. your never in mexico... lol
My thinking is if somebody doesnt even know what a cls55 is, just the way the car looks, it "looks" fast, so people dont **** with it... On the other hand the E55 doesnt really look like a "fast car" so people take the bait... haha

I resent the negative talk about Audis and/or Audi owners. I own an Audi as well and I will assure you that you wont find a thread on the Audi forum like the popular one here at the moment about people being uptite and being to good to pay any attention to another same make/model car that is tastefully modded.
And generally Audi is definitely underpowered most of the time, they always have amazing interior and just a hair less power than they need. The only ones you usually have to look out for are the older B5 S4s because they could be sneaking around with 600whp these days and putting it all to the ground with awd, and then some A4s with big turbos that run good. There is also a supercharger available now for the RS4 and S5 though that substantially improves the performance. Still nothing mind blowing but right there in e55 territory and it is still new so no more aggresive custom tunes or bigger pulleys, headers, upgraded cooling etc yet.
RS5
RS4
Then of course the sexy RS6 like the video above when they have some ecu tuning.

haha ^^ I have driven one of those V10 R8s, they are pretty bad ***. It is bone stock though against a fulley modded and fast E55, so give it a little credit! All the torque of the E55 is hard to mess with though.
