TSX = slow...

i was waiting for the light to turn green so that i could turn a left and head home.. it was a long day.. and i was so stressed out.. and this TSX pulls up next to me and the guy gave me the dirtiest look ever.. i was pissed! (this is one of those two lane turn areas.. do u guyz know? anywho.. ) so i punched my CL and hit the e-brake after turning to oneside and i drifted barely hitting the TSX... which was in my blindspot turning... and i floored it on the main road.. (which is basically a straight road with about 6 lights.. then it turns residential) i passed 1 block then 2 then 3 and i was going about 100 by the fourth light and the TSX was barely hanging on.. then at the 5th light i shut it down.. and the TSX was like 2 car lengths away from me.. besides.. it turned into a 25 MPH zone... and i got kinda scared.. hehe..

i was so shocked.. i thought TSX's where super fast.. i owned him..

TSX is not super fast, and you're an idiot for driving like that on a public road.

He probably backed off after your dumbass move that almost nailed him.

Why the hell would you think the TSX is super fast?
I've not even been able to make the tires skip off the line with mine...

Kickass handling though.

I wonder what occurred prior to the account originally posted. Sounds like there's more to that story.

I've been driving one as a loaner. I still can't get over how much less body roll there is. Especially when I'm taking a yellow light left turn

-unless my statement isn't valid. in which cause I'm probably going crazy, and I want my CL back from the dealership dammit.

My thoughts as well...

And with a 3.0 98 CL, that was not a kill. The guy was probably following and taking down your plate # for reckless driving.
