Was driving 80 on the left lane and a 300SRT high beam me so I speeded up to 100 and he changed lane passed me. (probably at 110+) and I was going to change to DS mode and....
My mom was in the car with me and she yelled at me not to do crazy things. So I had to slow down.
I am just wondering have any one raced with 300SRT? Probably 545i won't win, how about 550i?
Does BMW really need to use M5 ($80K+ car) to beat Chrysler's $50K car?

I dont think u understand the charme and strength of a BMW if u start asking questions like this.
But if u really needed to know, u should have convinced your mom so she could let u do your thing and prove that there aint no Chrysler gonna mess around with your beamer.

Well... I think beamer should be about to take 300SRT after 140+

Once when i was driving my M3 i ran into a porsche 996 who wanted to race me. Unfortunately my mom was sitting next to me holding a box with a pie in it with lots of whipped cream cause we just came from the bakkery. But there was no way that i would let that arrogant punk with his sunglasses and his blond chick (also with sunglasses) get away without proving that he was as tough as he looked like.
U probably can guess what happened next. We took a sprint from 0 to 200 km/hour, my mom was screaming like a pig, i humiliated the guy in front of his girlfriend and we had to eat the pie from the box cause it looked like shit afterwards.
But anyways, i felt great!!

Im glad thats a universal truth. Even overtaking a slow moving car can result in a 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING' rant if mum is in the passenger seat.
I can see her hands clench and knuckles go white sometimes.
She would have a fit if she knew what i drove like without her in the car
The irony is that she has more points for speeding than i do......HMMM

beautifull story about the m3....and dont worry about the chrysler, if he came at another time...he would have heard a BMW v8...my mom not only thinks i dive fast. she thinks i park to fast... the 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING' screem came a few days ago while entering the garage,,i laughed we she said that...but she was serious...she says "slow down" after i take my leg of the brake but before i press the gas pedal...but she drives fast and although i dont tell her slow down when shes driving, i must admit, i do get nervous and a bit scared when i see the speedometer past 100KMh...

This one will. The SRT is a monster. We (545/550) will struggle to match it for acceleration.
Wow, we would have a whole extra 15mph to show that Chrysler who his daddy was
