You should never beat your heroes ?
Dunx was out tonight enjoying a ride in a 2.5 Type-R, like you do 
On my way home, in mine, I got a bit frisky across Emley Moor..... and caught up to a spotless Porsche 928GT in black
When I was younger THAT was a proper supercar...... At the T-junction he boots it (sadly only up to the national limit) and I followed him to the M1.
As we accelerate off the roundabout I boot mine up the slip road and realise I'm about to "waste" it, so back off. It just seemed immature to have "rubbished" such a nice car (?).
So I waited till my turn-off at Junction 41, and blew his doors off - childish (big style).
Still a proper "classic supercar" imho.

Like they say; never meet your heroes, they will always disappoint you........apart from George Best in his later years who would always do what you expected ( lived fairly close, drank a lot and tried to sh*g everything that moved)

Mr. Respectable was in the inside lane being just that....
As a "chav" in Scoob, I needed to stretch her legs once this week.

P.S. I still find amazing that ordinary punters like me can end up with a "ordinary" car that can so easily humble, (what in my opinion was a performance icon ), which I lusted after SO many years ago.

Had a blat with a Ferrari 308 (Magnum PI car) with 2 posh geezers in it and won in my little old MY00 PPP car (though not much in it), dont think they were impressed by that (but it did look better 
)

Fookin love 928's, it was the first proper fast car i went in when i was 15. some older mates had 2 litre Cortina's MK2 RS2000's that i deemed fast at the time, but this simply blew me away. It was my Dads neighbour and after me hankering for a ride he chucked my Dad the keys.
I was left speechless for days afterwards.

TBH as Dave will confirm, I drive for weeks without "opening the taps" on mine and forget quite what it is capable of...
I was quite surprised just how much it rolled coming off the roundabout, and he obviously had to modulate his acceleration to maintain his "line" up the slip road....
I wouldn't swap mine for it, but it could have my garage space..... at the right price.
LOL

P.S. Dave, don't you have security, or "arsey" colleagues to worry about ?
