Default E46 kill

On the way home from work Sunday night, I had two fun (well only one) encounters with a Maxima and E46 M3.

I was cruising at 60mph on the highway in the 2nd to left lane with very light traffic when an M3 coming up behind me got on my rear and tailled me so I downshifted to 4th and sat there, hoping he'd make a move. He heard me downshift and went to the left lane. He didn't try to line up, and just floored it and tried to pass me. When the front of his car got to my driver's door I gunned it and quickly put him behind me again by the end of fourth. I let off around 120mph and was several cars in front. After that, he tried to pass me a few times and I just kept flooring it in 6th (didn't downshift) and he still could not pass me. I stopped playing with him and he seemed a bit upset when he got off his exit

Later, a late model Maxima tried to play with me some, and again I didn't even downshift from 6th. I just kept pulling on him hard around 4-5k rpms in 6th while I was out of VTEC.

I need some competition

Nope. The M3 was on my bumper for a few seconds and the way he was driving was to pass me. When I saw him on my bumper, I downshifted to 4th and sat there waiting for him. Maybe he wasn't trying to race per se, but he floored it and the outcome was that I pimp slapped him.

The Maxima was definitely trying to get me to run, and ended up waving to me after I stopped.

I'm going to register my car in Florida within the next few weeks. My cousin is going to put a utility in my name so I can register there.
