The car to the rear of the Diablo etc (top of the picture) was a guy that followed me home yesterday...apparently I had overtaken him or something...(which I dont remember) and he was most upset about it...and started making threats and shouting abuse at me....etc....

Anyway I found the whole thing extremely amusing and I suggested he leave as I had never seen such a pathetic example of a man in all my life...(kinda like a grasshopper waving his arms around) and if I had blown on him then I am sure he would have fallen over....

Just out if interest I was wondering what the car was he was driving...so I could try and remember where I had overtaken him....I was sure it was a new-new shape BMW 3 series...looking at the wheels....but after I saw the CCTV footage I wasnt so sure....

anyone got any ideas....(perhaps I should move this to the triva section) LMAO

It's very similar to what you've said.

to this one

I agree with sbbs..
It look very very similar to that bmw..

HAHAHAH good work...and identfied so quickly.....if I see him again I will have to get his email address and send him this.....

Wahahha... I thought that the kid was tied to the front bumper on the landing Impreza.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA..

Even if the pics are very small, I think you all are right.. it really seems a new 3 series

Jabba · 08-25-2003, 08:25 AM

Obvisouly we dont know what the engine size was....but I doubt if the Diablo had much difficulty in overtaken him...(the fact I dont even remember passing him says this to me as well) anyway I think he was just annoyed that his brand new bimmer got owned....but IMO no disgrace loosing to a 500 bhp monster anyway...

TT · 08-25-2003, 08:27 AM

LMAO!

But why did he followed you? Was he trying to say you did something dangerous or was just scared or WTF?

sbbs · 08-25-2003, 08:32 AM

Scared him ey? Did he wet his pants? Hahaha..

Anyway, luckily nothing worse happened.

Jabba · 08-25-2003, 08:32 AM

something like...who do you think you are.... passing me at that speed...in that yellow "thing" you are a maniac.....I am just warning you if I ever see you do something like that again then I will "kill" you....

hmmmm unlikely the Jabba thinks....as he didnt look capable of even swatting a fly....

Poor looser

If a Diablo would pass me, here is what will happen:

- I'll shout as hard as I can, toward my g/f beside me: " A FUCKING DIABLO!!!!!!"
- I'll wet my pants
- I'll drop 4 gears and try to follow him untill it stops
- I'll exit my car, run beside the Diablo
- I'll try to explain to the guy that I envy/love/respect him
- I'll find my camera on my car (hoping to have it with me)
- I'll take min 20 pics and some small videoclips
- I'll wave him while he'll take off with a huge burnout

sbbs · 08-25-2003, 08:41 AM

Waahahaha... I'll only shout as loud as I can though.

its good that 99% of people are the same as you TT (and me) four people yesterday said to me in traffic very nice comments etc...such as..."I just wanna say that car sounds awesome from behind etc...." and I had some really nice races inc a flat out (over 160 in the 355) race with an Audi TT....no way was it a normal one though...as he was doing around 145 mph when I passed him...damn I must get some car camera mounts so I can record my adventures for you and Jabbas World....
