Post Ran with an old M3

This M3 looks old and beat up.
The exhaust is loud.....it's probably broken.
I stuck to it for 10 miles for a chance to race off the toll. It was very close, but I was clearly pulling on him by the second gear. This M3 must be in worse shape than I thought. I was ahead by 2 car length by 110 MPH. As I remember, it was a fairly even race with the old M3 on my wife's S2000. And she blew me away with her S2000....I thought it would be pretty good to keep up with one.
Maybe it was an automatic in bad shape? or may be it wasn't even a M3....with the M3 badge on it.

At least it did move more gracefully across the lanes in the 10 mile stretch.
I was leaning left and right in my TL-S.

Last gen M3 with automatic is not as fast as people think, but handles and brakes like a dream.
