Cool z4 bites the dust

Had a young looking woman driving it. Both of us had top down. She was driving pretty aggressively and fast while I was behind her. As we were coming up to a light that was red she pulled into the left lane, so at the light we were lined up (intentional?).

Either way I know she's gonna gun it (she did at the last light), so I do too. About 2 car lengths once I shutdown at an uncertain speed, in 3rd gear.

I still kinda like z4's though.

Yeah, it sounds like you broke down that poor BMW. I like the way they look too, I liked the old ones as well. Even though people said they look like clown shoes.

The real clown shoe would be the older BMW M coupes.

I'd LOVE to have a BMW M coupe with the S54 in it. *drool*, they are so hard to find.

FYI - I clowned on a few Z4s and last week I clowned on a 335i auto from a dig to 95MPH and some people told me that it wasn't possible. I provided some test data to show that it was possible but still, I was told that it just wasn't possible. Then I was told that my 05 S2k couldn't break the wheels loose on a 4k clutch slip yet I do it all the time. Wow, these BMW lovers know more about our cars then we do.

I think its best if we just don't post about beating BMWs, it's way to upsetting for some people. These poor guys have been fed

You sound like a ricer.
Yeah, but nothing major - just ebay short intake and megan exhaust. Also has about 70lbs of stereo in the back.

Btw, my Rx7 will be sold this week

I guess, but not my type. She was one of those rich yuppy girls, playing with her cellphone.

This is the key question. If the answer is yes, you should have let her win. There's no fun in driving in front of a car with a cute girl at the wheel.
