So i was down the shore this past week with my 328is w/ cat back and a CAI. I haven't raced someone i don't know in a while so i was itching to find someone down there. This is how it went down. Me, my girlfriend, and my best friend in my car on the main strip of the island when i saw this red mustang GT convertable (2001 body style) with white stripes right up on my ass. YESS!! i thought to myself, Finally. The guy comes up next to me and taunts me. I look at the car and see 2, 12 year old looking kids in the car, which at that time told me not to race him...The guy keeps revving his motor at me till finally my girlfriends says "just take him.." (now thats a girlfriend). We both come to a light next to eachother. The light turns green and we race till the end of second...We were both right next to eachother the whole time with me not launching my car. Again we come to another light. This time i launch my car at 2000 rpms. And again we only race till the end of second. I was a half a car legnth in front of him that time...WOW i thought to myself. He pulls up next to me after we raced and gave me that "my mustang GT just lost to a BMW" grin on...and off we went.
good job teach them mustangs
nice run, sounds fun. but that look isnt anything as bad as the "i just lost to a saturn look" it goes something like this. lol
you should probably race someone who actually knows how to drive...cuz then this outcome wouldn't have happened
or maybe it was an auto?

Nice Kill. I acutally came across a 2000ish mustang GT convertible today, but he wanted no part in racing. I wondered what would have happened.

this forum seems to go through phases in terms of kills
someone posts a kill story on a certain model of car, in this case the mustang, and then there are 23847 other threads about bimmers that beat mustangs but shouldn't. half of them are b/s.
btw, auto mustang convertibles run 15.2's. good kill
EDIT: i find it even more funny that the OP has one post and his two cars are the 328 and a 318 race car.
i dont really see whats so funny. maybe he just likes reading the stories, or just hasnt had much to post. and if it was an auto he should have won. last i checked a 328is runs around a 14.7.
it's funny because a mustang gt has 260hp/300tq stock and a 328 has 190hp/210tq stock, both with 3 passengers, yes even if the gt was a vert it will still rape a stock 328, especially from a dig with all that torque (unless like i stated earlier he was an incredibly shitty driver), plus the poster said that the gt owner continued to rev at him when they were rolling, which makes it seem more like a manual than an auto

^^ Wow you seem to be a big supporter of mustangs. I think you give them a little too much credit
well it's because i have friends who have modded mustangs and i know it takes more than intake and exhaust to be able to hang with one

yes it was an auto...and i have made threads on this page but as a different name...so this technicly isn't my "first one". As far as my 318 race car goes.... it's very underpowered...but when your smoking audi's and 911's around limerock and everyone thinks it's a 6 cyl. it gives you some laughs...
328's run 14.7's? that seems hard to believe. true?
thats awful close to m3 times isnt it?
Well, Honestly, it's not as bad as you think. From a dig yes... a 328is is not going to beat a GT, however the lost is not nearly as bad as some think. On the freeway I held one back well into the 100's. He never gained I never pulled. This happened on IH35 coming back from Austin. We hit traffic and he manuvered in front and we ran 'em again, and he never pulled well into the 100's again. Downlow they are good cars, on the topend nothing to be scared about. Oh yeah my car was stock 328is 5spd, his was a 5spd GTlooked like an '01-03 and he had a passenger (girl).
