Some people just don't get it. Was this jerk driving a G35 Coupe? If he was he should have been able to take you. I love my TL, but a G35 Coupe should be able to take a TL. So besides that fact that he was a dick as he proved by flipping you off, he doesn't know how to drive either.

Hye guys that is why i love the TL. I dont get challenged by those a holes. HOwever with that said, there is no way a TL could take on the 05 G35 coupe. I mean, even if its an aspec and has an aem intake and comptech exhaust, whatever there is no way a TL could take it. The G35 that u encountered must have been an older model and auto. The o5 model has 298 hp. If the two cars were lined (g35, TL), the race would be over in seconds. But nice run man, way to teach a lesson to that punk

You do not have 300 to the wheels. THat would mean you have over 350 HP at the crank (assuming a 15% drivtrain loss), 70 more than stock. NO bolt-ons would give you that horsepower. Unless you have the Comptech Supercharger which isn't out yet, you are not making that much power.

You are 46 years old. "Racing"? Grow up, lest you hit one of your grandchildren as they play in the street gramps.

There was a g35 coupe parked out front today, that thing is hot. It may have had the body kit though, but that thing was beautiful. Too bad its not AWD, cant own a RWD on my street(icy dead end hill). Plus I doubt my mother would get a 2 door and the 4 door is ugly. So there is still a TL in my future
