Basically any luxury sport or near luxury auto Lexus, Infiniti, Acura, MB, Chrysler 300c, Audi etc. will test ya for the hell of it.

My little 8 year old nephew says BMW stands for "Break my windows". To which i replied break THEIR face instead.

I would venture to say alot of people are BMW haters.

For me, I get taunted by Infinitis as well. The M, The G, all of them. I kick their a&& every time.

My favorite though are the BMW's. I think they know I am faster. I always get a nice wave as I fly by. BMW owners are just a classy breed.

The best though was a tricked Honda Civic. He actually killed me, but only because my V1 warned me to slow down. I did, and there he was on the side of the road 2 miles later.

Very rarely get taunted but when I do it seems I am not in a position to do much about it...kids...groceries...etc. I did have an old chevy pickup mess with me in my e39. I let him pass me then I was able to stay right on his azz until about 120 and something blew and I saw smoke. Poor som' bitch, his girlfriend was cussing him out as I flew by.

I have more luck with the ricers but thats not much fun. If I see a benz I get excited, though I rarely have one take the bait. I think they realize that their car is merely for looks.

I'll admit, when I first got the car I would always look for others to play around with. For some reason, no one would ever bite. For some reason, whenever I saw cars going at a good pace, I would always be driving a SUV.

I've been dusted by a few M3s and throughly enjoyed that. If a M45 or something of the like wanted to provoke me, they would have no trouble in doing so.

I'll run with just about anything for 500 to 1000 feet (as long as the conditions are safe) then I'll back off and just watch them go. I get more of a kick out of watching them go than actually racing them. Once I let off they just keep on going. I have too much at stake (kids, wife, job, etc.) to get nailed for racing some douche bag. On the other hand, I am a car nut and I do like to see other cars "go"! I can remember at least 3 occasions where I got some one to "go" and they got nailed by the Towns Finest in Blue!
As they say... There's no substitute for experience. And keep the real racing on the track.

Hello all

had a meet two weeks ago before hitting the club in hammamet

my 525d, 530d , X5 3d, X5 3 I

while cruising on the highway (60 Km drive) this kid with a 300Z was swerving to pass us !!! well he could have easily done it but we all got pissed off as he cut off my friends 530d so basicallly we sandwiched him and kept cruising till we got to where we were suppsoed to exit.

we could tell how pissed he was thinkin he would hit the freeway at 200 Km/h and we stcuk him at 120 the whole time

(freeway has two lanes 2 X5's in the front and 2 E60's behind and the Suckker zigzaging in the back trying to pass on the emergency lane......)
