Wow what a day i had yesterday and today!!! Played golf with a few friends, one of which owns a new C32 AMG Mercedes. On the way home we decided to have some fun. I pulled up next to him at a stop light waiting to turn left onto PCH (Pacific Coast Hwy. in case ya didnt know). We rolled down the windows and chatted for a sec before the light turned green. His car comes stock with 360HP or so, but he has some more aftermarket parts installed so hes pulling about 380hp and 390tq. So the light turns yellow going the other way and i rev up the RPM's to about 4 grand. Green light hits and we both gun it. The turn onto PCH was a long downhill banked left turn. Believe it or not i actually was neck and neck with him through the whole turn untill we straightened, then he had me by about 2 car lengths up untill about 60mph. Of course this was all in good fun, i didnt expect to win at all. His car will do 0-60 in 4.7 at best. I thought my MSP did an excellent job of launching and accelerating through the turn though and was very pleased. Btw, the car is completely stock (untill the Injen Intake i ordered gets here). This all happened yesterday.
Today again i was cruising PCH and came to a light. Guess what pulls up next to me... a Ferarri F40!!! I just about s*** my pants. When i was younger that was "THE" car i wanted. Untill today i have never actaully seen one (seen almost every other exotic car). Let me just say that that thing is HUGE! Its a beast! Low to the ground and extremely wide, wider than the Testerossa i'd even say. Just for fun i gave my car some gas in nuetral to make some noise. The guy looks at me and looks back without any emotion. I had no intent on racing him. When the light turned green he really put his foot down hard on the throttle, and he was gone. I was busy watching him leave me in the dust and almost veared (spelling???) into oncomming traffic.
Anyway, just thought i'd share. I dont know whats wrong with me, i dont care if a ricer pulls up next to me, but if its a BMW or Mercedes or whatnot, ill go for it.
