You've never driven a 335, haven't you? Let alone a 550...

in your last thread didn't you say you already raced your friends 550i a few times, and beat him by 3/4 car length or something along the lines of that?

If the 550 is auto then u will get slaughtered by it all the way through. If 550 is 6MT then u have a chance because he might mis-shift 2nd, 3rd, and 4rth gear. So just hope he is 6MT and he does NOT know how to drive.

no but a car that traps ~105 mph is going to be hard to beat with a G35.

07+ 350z race would be interesting to watch against the 550, especially from roll.

I think a better race would be a bone stock E46 M3 against a bone stock HR 350Z
