99 tl vs G35 TURBO

So I pull up to a G35 coupe at a light. First off all I notice he had badged it SKYLINE. It looked like a magazine car. Slammed on 19" deep dish black wheels. Silver car, and clean as hell. I noticed it was rather loud as hell, knowing a stock G35 would beat me this thing I knew wasnt stock, but I still didnt know what was coming for me. I looked over and he noticed that I wanted to run him cause I kept inching forward. When the light turned green before I knew what the hell was going on he had already put about 20 cars on me. All you could hear was his loud exhaust along with his loud ass winding turbo. I was shocked. A brand new G35 turbo! So I ended up talking to him and he was putting out 500 hp at the wheels (497hp to be exact). All I have to say is it must be very nice to have enough money to screw around with a car like that. He also took me for a ride. Luxury with a turbo. It was smooth as hell and fast. My guess would be that it runs somewhere in the 12's. Nicely done though. Im gonna try to find a badge that says SLED so I can stick it underneath my acura symbol on my trunk.

Sound like the guy had a sweet ride and recognized you were someone who could appreciate it. Nice that you got to talk and get a ride in the beast.

hahaha... yeah... there's no way a stock TL's gonna stand up to a G35... that's awesome that he took you on a drive and talked to you afterwards... most people with a car like that are gonna be total pricks (most)... I'm jealous... I want a 497 hp car...

i saw a all black de-badged G35 turbo with black 19's down here where i live and i swear to you the two kids in it looked no older than 18 years old....must be fun to run up mom and dads credit card the thing that got me was the way he was driving the car as if it was some POS car that he could beat up on.....i doubt that car will stay in tact for much longer

I tried to race a G35 which was all souped up. The guy told me he even changed the pistons. The car was making 486HP and that was some Car. Beautiful from OutSide and Under the Hood.

500whp should be mid 11s at least, even with poor traction. 500whp Camaros with more weight do mid to low 11s, don't see why a lighter car would do any worse.
