I was drving down the road, heading for some shopping with my mom. There was this guy, tailgating me in his BMW 528. I drove for about half a mile and then decided to slow down to about 35mph(in a 50mph zone). So I got slower, looked for half a second not in the back-mirror and wham, there he was, just next to me on the left side, I tried my best to put the pedal to the metal(we got a sh!tty Toyota Carina with 133hp) but he just passed me without a hassle :) Never got so owned before :D

I actually tried but the car was in the 3rd gear and I realized to late that I should have pressed the "Power" button. That would shifted down to 2nd gear :)

Is that some kind of automatic transmission thing?

Are you sure that wouldn't have turned it off?

He's in Switzerland, no Lincoln Town Cars there... maybe an old Fiat or Opel though. :)

haha, the Opels and Fiat are about the same crap. I hate those cars :D

FrogDog: Yeah, that's a button, that when you press it, it will shift up at the red-line and not about 1200rpm before like without the "Power" button.

Shopping with your mom?!?

I thought I was the only one that did this. :eek:

But girls tell me its cute because all the other guys my age (19) would be embarrassed, while I don't care.

That makes it all worthwhile. ;)

The 500 class BMW's are the best sport sedan's in the world. You didn't get owned. Being owned implies you actually had a chance to win.

It's a pretty sweet car for what we've paid. For my parents, it's a car to get from point A to point B. Better then a POS American car.
