friday night going to the movies with my gf, i have this stupid BMW tailgating the crap outta me not only is he right on my damn bumper, but he does this thing in which he lays off for a bit, and then floors the accelerator right onto my bumper. this goes on for about 2 blocks, and i am just waiting for an opening...
when i finally get a clearing, i do the same shit he's doing. the accelerate and let go technique, to let him know i was taking off. when i hear him floor it again, i floor at the same time (mind you, he's behind me). i started off at 3rd gear going probably 35 MPH. i slowly but surely started gaining on the bimmer, until he finally let up going around 75 MPH, but i kept up going. i must've gained a 2 car difference from the time i floored it, to the time he let go.
i assumed it was a cheap 3 series, but then the guy catches up, gives me a dirty look, and turned left on the same street that i was making a right turn on. 7 series bimmer, but i'm not sure which model. i know for sure it wasnt one of the v12 models.
i was a bit surprised the bimmer didnt walk all over me considering it is near 400 hp, but when i got home, i looked up some stats on the 7 series... and it's not relaly that fast... especially for the beast engine it has. oh well another win for me
... & his bimmer probably wasn't outfitted w/ 1 of these babies... easily giving you the win!!
LMFAO!!!! Nothing can defeat the monsterous kool blue cone!! You probably scared the shit out of him when you punched it smoke. That's why he turned left when you turned right.
I dont know if he was really gasing it ive got an 05 6mt and my parents had a 2004 745I
the 0-60 on that car is 5.9 secs so the can deff. roll with a g35, i would battle one on the freeway either they pick up fast on the freeway.
maybe your talking about the older models before 2002? Ive driven the 745 they are fast it would be a close race there very tourquey im just saying this cause my parents have had an 02 and an 04 745i.
stats on different websites show that car runs 6.4 (0 - 60), a far cry from the 5.9 you're saying.
6.4 is damn quick for a sedan tho, espeically one that big

Well the thing is, if its a 745i/Li, it has 330 hp and weighs roughly 4500 pounds. I have a 750 Li, and it has 360 hp and is around the same weight. BMW says that 750 Li runs in at 5.8 secs in sports mode, and some claiming a little faster. I cant say for sure since im still breaking it in, but believe me, that car is damn fast, especially for a car that outweighs most mid-range SUVs. But hey, the G is more fun to race in, thats for sure.
