Thumbs up BMW 330i Not That Quick Then!!!!

Yesterday whilst out in the scoob, I came across a BMW 330i, he came up a slip road in front of me and tried to cut me up, he then went down the inside so I decided to close the gap, when he finally got out in front of me he tried to pull away so I went with him, well all i can say is I was all over him like a rash, In the end he could take no more and pulled over to let me by, but why are BMW drivers so arrogant?
Cheers
Colin

It seems the two drivers were evenly matched for arrogance, at least.

Yay, a dick big ******* thread....Today, whilst driving my 1500+kg lard bucket 325 touring auto. I came across a tool in a riced up Civic Type-R.....

Long and short of it; he tried it on at the lights on a dead striaght and he couldn't pull away. Launch conrtrol, awful exhaust, and not even the vetec kicking in could save him. I must be well hung, me

Now, a 325 touring auto IS a slow car...it weighs as much as a 525. Yet some silly Vetec whizz bang rice rocket couldn't embarass it.

Anyway, why are Scooby drivers such teapots? The reason why I've got rid of my Impreza is because it seem every arsehole has one; usially a drain-piped sonic blue wet dream, and upon sight of the rear end of a more standard looking Impreza, they buzz round my **** like I'm a turd; whats the deal with that? Are they into bumming people using cars as condoms or what?

Nah not me, the saucy git thought he was going to go down the inside and get away with it, I didn't intend to go with him it's just I wanted to see if the Scoob could stay with him, No one was more surprised than me.

Default 330i

the new 330i M sport does 0-60 in 6.1 (manual) and is 254bhp, with 232ft/lb of torque and weighs in a 1545kgs so unless it's been modded, it is not really a match for a WRX let alone an STi.

Just a flying visit as I'm bored. I'm sure Sara would appreciate me sorting out her pipes whilst in her shed.

However, its possible that SN's policy on Authorised Advertisers could technically tie my hands in giving such advice. It's a serious matter too.

If they're going to be that pedantic then the lunatics will really have taken over the asylum! This is a community, we help and advise one another.

Those GTS-T's are not quick at all, they look like slugs going up the 1/4 mile strip when they are in standard form.

With respect mate, if you look at the power to weight figures for both cars there isn't enough in it for either to blow the other into the weeds.

I've had a go in a 330i. Beautiful engine, nicely balanced, very classy. My subjective impression was that WRX launch advantage aside (althought the 330i has very good of line traction) there'd be very in it between one of them and a WRX - all other things being equal.

My girlfriends dad has a 330i M, it's quick enough, but doesn't come close to my scooby (with PPP fitted).. I highly doubt it'd be able to give a regular WRX a run for it's money, let alone an STI.

Nice, in those 7 (seven) years did you learn any IT skills, or even simple English skills?

Like, start a sentence with a capital, use commas, full stops, and mostly have respect for "the man", Bubbapo!

BTW, the 330 goes, but not that much!!!

HEHE
