Just passed 1200 miles on the odometer on my 545i. At a stop light, an S4 Cabriolet pulled up next to me...could not see what year...the tell-tale ugly front end. Light turned green...the S4 hits the gas...I responded and let loose with the melodious V8...meeeeeow! Pulled passed (1/4 car length covering ~250 yds) the S4 before lanes merged. Would I have pulled away more had I been able to respond quicker to the impromptu street drag?

When did you buy the car? Maan, you seem to have self control

I just got the car about 3 weeks ago. The S4 Cabrio had a slight jump on me off the line...I was not expecting him to try to take me. But perhaps he didn't notice the badge on the back of my car...since 545's
are a bit rare in this area. It was still quite fun, but wish that I had been in kick-down gear (DS) or manual (M). I could have bought an S4 saloon, but glad that I didn't.
