99 cl vs. lexus es300

so the other day this kid in a lexus es 300 was messin with me, and tryin to race. we were on a highway with a spd limit of 45, and he would roll up on me then puch it. and finally i couldnt take it anymore so he rolled up on me at 45 and i knew he was tryin to do it again, so i dropped it to second. and took off, and ill be honest i felt bad becasue his friends were laughin at him becasue i stomped him that bad. so then a couple lights later he wants to race again, and this time he is in front of me at a light. the light turns green and he goes. im behind him, i pass the car on the right, i get over and owned him again. this was a proud day for the cl.

Congrats!

A kill is a kill, especially for a fellow 2.3 whip

I assume the ES300 was an automatic?

His friends were probably laughing at you instead. The 4-cam 1MZ-FE V6 in this ES300s had quite a bit of torque. There's a video over on Streetfire.net of a G4 V6 Camry walking all over a BMW 328i and both cars are stock. If the ES300 had actually been serious, you would have probably lost.

But as it is, a kill is a kill.

well they might have a lil torque and power. like 200 hp, and 214 ft lbs but theyre 0-60 in a 4 speed automatic is 8.7 seconds

and the reason the gs300 beat u is because they have 225 horses, and 0-60 in 7
