Default ap1 vs non turbo solstice

So I pull up to a gas station lastnight to get some smokes before I went out. As I'm pull up I see a solstice and decided to park next to it. I gave it a little walk around, and noticed it was just a non turbo version. So I walk in to get in line and the guy in front of me starts talking to me.

him- I like your car S2000's are nice, not as fast as my turbo solstice next to it.

me - thats a turbo? Where's the dual exhaust and fog lights?

him- Oh i had pontiac put on the base front bumper and change the exhaust so I look like a sleeper. Plus I shaved the turbo badge.

me- oh cool (I was laughing inside)

So I get my smokes and go to my car and he hadn't driven away yet. I pull out of the parking lot and he follows me out. I get on the freeway and I just start cruising at 65 he pulls next to me and starts reving and trying to jump to try and get me to run. After about a minute of this I just get tired of him and drop it into third. By the time I hit 4th I had 2 cars on him. At about 120 I just slowed down because he was about 6 or 7 cars back. He flys by and I just laugh. I got to downtown Corpus Christi and what do you know the guy is driving around and finds me.

Him- I need to take my car in to get looked at. I don't think my turbo is working

Me- Thats because you don't have one.

I just walked off laughing.

The End

Not According to Edmunds.com (http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=123357 )

Both the new 270hp Altima Coupe and the 268hp Accord Coupe are still slower in the 0-60mph and 1/4mile.

Why anyone would lie about this kind of stuff is beyond me. And then he decides to race you? That's like lying about how much money you have and then paying with food stamps at the check out line.
