I've had plenty of encounters with G35s and my 545 has never lost or even come close to losing.
My old 530 was a different story...

Another reason to trade in for a 550i?
By the way did u have people in the car while he had nobody?I'd feel confident telling your friend that you can wait another year or two and sell your car to buy a brand new one of his
(Not that u would downgrade)Your car is worth more dude, some Evo 8 and Wrx Sti guys say they can beat me, i just tell them i could sell my car and buy BOTH their cars!

I absolutely stand by my comment. If you or anyone is "street racing", you are moron! And, anyone who is street racing deserves and should be called a moron. First, street racing in illegal, and can land you in Prison for a good chunk of time. I think someone who risks going to prison for a cheap thrill is a moron. Second, you can seriously injure or kill innocent people when street racing, which will only compound point one, and devastate innocent family and friends. I believe deliberately doing illegal activities, which can injure and hurt innocent people does make a person a moron.
How in the world can anyone condone ILLEGAL actions, which could result in prison, serious injury, or death?

Politicians like to use the word, "Moron." It used to refer to a class of people, but now it's being used to call others, "stupid." I prefer to use the word, "unwise, not smart, not level minded, etc." Street racing" is unssafe and illegal, but it happens for different reasons and circumstances, e.g, adrenaline, rage, scheduled, etc. For instance, if Znod and I knew of a deserted 1 mile stretch and decided to race his Z06 against my future modded supercharger 545i to 60 mph or 1/4 trap, I do not think we are "moron." Calculated risk taking does not make one a moron, nor is breaking the law makes a person a moron.
The point is, no one deserves to be call a moron except himself/herself. Why? Because he/she would know his/her own story and action.
BTW, was the original poster racing in the streets?

Now, ask yourself this question, and please answer it honestly. What would you say if your wife, daughter, son, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, cousin, or friend was seriously injured or killed by a street racer? Are you honestly going to say that you are not going to be saying that person was a moron? I bet you would be saying a lot worse, and rightfully so, in addition, I bet you would want justice served, both criminal and civil. I am sure you are not going to go to court and tell the jury, this is a great guy, he was just having fun, please do not punish him, and please do not hold him liable.

PoliticalAid007, don't take it as if I'm jamming my ethical values down your throat
and respond with a personal experience. It's just that grandma always taught not to judge or prejudge someone because life's to short for you to see the bigger picture. And ma always said to "hit your tongue ten times before you say something about someone."
Oh, and about your personal experience, I would hire the best lawyer and let the juries decide. That is the system isn't it?

Just read this post and now I have to scream..
WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT AND WHY DO YOU GET SO WORKED UP ABOUT IT??? WGAF???
It's like being a martial arts expert - would you go around kicking everyone's butt until you found the guy that could kick yours? And then what? There's always going to be a faster car, a bigger truck, someone with more money, someone with a better looking girlfriend - when does it end?
Be happy with what you have, enjoy it and be safe with it. You may kill yourself or someone else trying to prove something that when it comes down to it, nobody gives a rat's ass about.
If you bought this car for racing other bozos on the street, you bought the wrong car - worst yet - you missed the entire point of owning a Bimmer.
