So going back home last evening, I am doing a calm 75 mph in 65 - like the rest of the traffic. I see a very nice, very clean - 2012 M3 coupe and start ogling it. Ooh looked so mean. All blacked out. except for the halo rings.
He's right behind me now. I can see those BMW halo rings. Oh he's flashing his headlights so I can move out of his way. Now I can see his hood bulge. Yup, he's getting closer by the second. Now he's so close, I can't see his lights or hood. Or the revered hood bulge. I think at this point he's so close, his IATs must have shot up since his front bumper is stuck onto my quad exhaust.
Facepalm.
At this time I am uncomfortable and glad that I maintained a good gap (2 cars or so) in front. But I am uncomfortable.
Obviously, like any M3 driver, he decides to totally ignore my presence and decides to go around me and fit in the 2 car gap or so, I have maintained.
But, he forgot that we are not on a race track. And his M tuned performance coupe has only a straight line to travel. He also forgot that we are doing 75 mph on a freeway and I have a whole lot more torque than him. 50% more. All that's needed for a VERY quick 75-90.
So I closed the gap. And now he's pissed. Oh and about 4 cars down there's a big black Chevy Tahoe marked STATE TROOPER in the back. Its doing 75 and thats why everyone is doing 75. Every one can see him. I can see him. Heck, he's been riding along for the last 5 miles or so. Doing a steady 75 or so.
I am sure the M3 driver has seen him.
Drive a couple miles with the M3 now a couple cars behind. I get ready for the next freeway ramp and indicate my intentions and as I switch into the right lane, I see the M3, in my mirror, rushing ahead like lightning. It was glorious. It looked fantastic. It was gleaming black. It was poring sex. He blew my doors off doing maybe a 100 or so while the rest of the traffic was doing 75. And I have never seen a lowered Tahoe switch lanes so fast. And suddenly it was red and blues all over.
Game over.
I actually felt sad for him. Deep inside. Poor guy totally missed the State trooper in an attempt to display his performance machine.

I got a BMW 5 Series GT thingy to stretch its legs once, sadly I walked past him in a Cobalt, and he was not happy......
By not happy I mean he and his passenger were flipping me off and screaming through closed windows......As we went up the highway he sped ahead and cut across the front of my car and then two more lanes of traffic and got off the highway, I can only assume I embarrassed him into getting off the highway.

I would have driven past him and honked/waved then taken the next exit.

This sounds like pretty much every M3 driver i've come across. I would have laughed my behind off when those lights started flashing. Never feel bad for people like that!

What an asshole. Typical M3 driver. Please don't feel too badly for him.
In other news, your C63 looks gorgeous.

Actually I'm pretty sure that guy can suck it.
Had a chick pull that same crap today. Surely there can't be a thought process involved in it, because no, you riding my ass will not magically make me speed up that 1mph and ride the ass of the car in front, and then they'll do it, then they'll do it, then they'll do it, and we'll all suddenly be going that mythical racing speed you're telling us you were about to do if we weren't "in your way" rather than driving normally and waiting for traffic to dissipate.
When the time came the girl in the CRV passed me in the (newly unmerged) left lane, looking at me and yelling something as she watched my finger rise gracefully. Whatever she said, I'm sure it was related to her gesture to another lane, but not to the four cars that were directly in front of me while *I* was slowing her down.
Later on I blew her doors off and then left her at a red light which every single morning on the same commute everybody else does daily, nobody has bothered figuring out that if they gun it from the light before, they will make it through this light. It's like clockwork. All you need is maybe 3/4 throttle in a 15 second car. But nobody ever makes it, or even goes for it. I make it every damn time. Hell sometimes I make it when I'm temporarily stuck behind a car that then does not make it, but since it's a left turn it usually involves me spending like 1,000 miles of tire in the process. Now that I think about it in my nearly three years making this commute I've seen one other car do it, and I applauded the guy.

I hate people who act like that so fuck him and I'm glad the Trooper was there to stop his douchery.

Yeah, what a typical M3 driver!!! Bunch of assholes, amirite? What should we do, internet? Should we kill them? Yes, let's internet kill them. They deserve that at the very least.
(They let dumb people and children buy any type of car, if they have the money. You experienced one or the other, and he got what he deserved this time. Most of the time he gets away with it, reinforcing his ignorance. If you ever see my E90 M3 behind you, it'll be just close enough that I can get a hint of your exhaust note. God it's good, isn't it? But it'll be far enough behind to avoid rock chips. I already know my car's faster than yours on a track (I've experienced it firsthand), and slower from 75-90 on the highway. And I always see the police. I enjoyed this post. Please know that my sarcasm is for the comments.)
