We are all kids and playing "mine is bigger than yours". It is immature, but fun at the same time.

If you always do what you always did you will always get what you always got.

Had a Wrangler too (TJ). When I sold it I missed waving at everyone. It's a Jeep thing.

Whenever I see a BMW 3 or 5 series or even an Acura TL, I take great pleasure in passing them with authority. In my mind i am saying to them, check out the power and handling of this baby.

In their mind they are saying, "ricer fly-by".

Re: Operation: ZOOM by BMWs!

Not trying to bring the post down but I had a Beemer ace me at 70 and as he switched lanes I knew he was gonna gun it...So I in turn also floored the G till about 90. To my dismay he just pulled away once we hit the 80-85 mph mark...

Couldn't keep up and no it wasn't a M3.

Re: Operation: ZOOM by BMWs!

Yeah 330i should be no prob at 90. I eat these guys around philly with 330s and 325s all the time. Most really wont try to race but some are ithcin to get ya cuz they know the power of the G baby...I passed one after i realized i was being challeneged just the other day. But he may have the automatic which, while smoother than glass, is a drag in 330 power compared to manual. You might lose to the new 235 HP 6 speed but, that just came out. The next G option will have 320 HP I would think....then we will all have obsolete cars as far as the HP wars are concerened.

Re: Operation: ZOOM by BMWs!

The thing is, a 330 and a G35 are fairly evenly matched. In a street race, with both cars starting at different speeds.. say 70 v. 75.. the one already going faster will probably win. You can't make up the starting gap unless you have a very large power advantage.
