What's up guys,
I do not race around and in general drive pretty slow since I just do the speed limits. Anyway, I'm pulling onto the freeway on ramp today kinda not on it very much at all and then I hear this revving etc. Kid behind me in a focus is on my ass revving it with his stupid sounding muffler. wtf?
No problem, lemme stomp this v12's pedal down and watch you get very tiny in my rear view mirror. Funniest part was that I could hear his little muffler trying so hard to keep up :)
Damn I love you my little e38
And I am from the motor city. F ford's!

Wherever you two were going, he'd get there ahead after you, seeing as you'd have to tank up twice on the way.

Some of those ford focus's are very fast indeed.

No way man. That is why this thing has nearly 27 gallon tank. I could easily make it like 200 miles!

Hehe.. that's always fun. Done that a few times. Usually it happens because I'm in a hurry and I pass someone in the left lane who is speeding and they take affront to that and floor it. When they pull up on me and go to pass, flooring it and watching them fall away is amusing. Our E38s don't seem to need much time to climb into the far right side of the dial. Of course, sometimes it bites me in the butt. That happened with a Civic Si and I got smoked :)

Ya, I'm not even trying to be fast or really care. Doubt I would do anything to try to make it faster etc. Fun to drive though. I'm a new owner so it's still exciting etc. Thinking of picking up this other 750 over here I have a line on and start a stable of thirsty horses.

I will be after pumping out a few more horses from the v12 with custom intakes/exhaust and possibly a tune once I'm done with the v8 tunes.

A tune would be so awesome. These engines are factory detuned by at least 30 HP I bet.
