Read that in context. The next like was something like "but seriously..." IIRC. Everyone knows an 05 impala wont be taking an NSX without SERIOUS mods.

I will say this, when he left the gas station that was the shittiest sounding car I have ever heard. I did not like it AT ALL! Basically it sounded like an M3 with no nuts (rattly) and weak.
Listen to the sound of my buddy Vance's NSX. He also have AP2 S2K.

The red NSX you heard probably got issues, remember the car is freaking 15 years old, sadly a lot of NSX owners don't even take good care of the cars. S2K owners is 10times worst. I looked at maybe 50~60 different S2K during my gruelling and painful search for that perfect GPW S2K, 40out of the 60 doeen't even pass my visual inspection. It is unreal how trashed some of these are are when you see it in person. I came close to be willing to settle for any other color.

Next time you see the guy ask him if he is Automatic. If he is just smoke his ass. Bone stock NA1 coupe weight 3010lbs. Later models weight more. Stock for stock, similar straightline performance as C5 Corvette. 02+ NA2 is similar to C6 Corvette. It smoked C6 in the 1/4mile test in the Top Gear video.

Why challenge a guy in traffic? I can see why the guy refuse to run. I am not a anti street racer, but if you are going to race at least do it selectively and use some common sense.

Not everyone have nothing to lose, Sometimes it is just wrong place at the wrong time. If shit happen When you engage in a street race, get hurt or hurt someone, both party involved is equally as respondsible. Cops will find you.

The guy was headed towards the freeway and I just wanted to be behind/near him when we got there. I wasnt wanting to RUN him in traffic, just say close so when the chance came I could. I guess it could have had issues, but it sounded like the one the last person posted here above your post. Just sounded like shit.

PS. The one you posted sounds a lot better with the exhaust. I like that it actually has TONE!!! I bet it would sound like sex going under overpasses, lol. I used to roll my window down in my cammed GT to hear that

NP, I have never been someone who likes to weave and crap. thats how accidents happen. You scare some grandma, she slams on the brakes, someone hits her, its shot to hell. I hate that crap. I will race, and in traffic, but I slow down and create a gap with NO CARS! in it and then get on the brakes before I get near the people ahead. Weaving is the main cause of accidents imho.
