for your entertainment... me vs 2003 Tiburon GT

Great, beautiful day today. I cruised with the top down quite a bit, driving with no particular destination. Here's me, minding my own business, and for once... NOT looking for a race. (hell has frozen over)

I catch a glint of something really bright in my rearview. I look back and see nothing really. Then a glint of light again.... WTF? Now I see a new GT V6 tiburon coming up fast in my rearview. (same color as my roommates) I am going about 75mph in a 65. I slow a bit to see if the car is actually my roommate. As it gets closer, I see a huge aluminum wing... yes it's even higher than the roof of the car... and yes, that's what was causing that occasional glint of light in my eyes.

He blows by like he's on the Indy 500 raceway. Hold on, come back here mario andretti. I speed up to try to see if it's a V6 or not for sure. (i eventually confirmed it was) As I get close, his ricer radar went off, and he downshifted. He's already going 95mph... how much more can he even downshift in that thing? lol.

I go by a bit in the middle lane, him in the left. There is him and he has a friggin upside down sun visor on (driver), and a really hot girl in the car. (hehe, wanna go for a ride baby?) There are 2 male passengers in the back seat. (together also maybe??... we have that g a y pride fest going on downtown... ) He has type R sticker on the side 1/4 panels over the FRONT wheels?? So not only does he have tacky sticker taste, but he also doesn't know where to put stickers. I'm guessing he didn't win too many pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey games when he was younger....

Traffic is clear now... time to play. I look over, and the girl is staring at my car. Or me. Yeah, we'll say it was me and my stunning good looks. I downshift to 5th and start to speed up. He also speeds up. Now this is the funny part. I am waiting for him to jump and go, as I continue to roll on in 5th (thinking I'll downshift to 4th and REALLY go) He shifts, and keeps speeding up slowly with me..... Okay, now it hits me. He's not pacing me... he IS RACING me!

I let him go by as traffic is coming up at this point, and I have to try to change my shorts from peeing in them cuz I was laughing so hard.

He cuts me off, then slows down QUICK. (ahhh, but my car is quicker slowing down too... hehe). He cuts over, and gets off. I of course, am ready to play and follow along. Immediately there is a red light, and 2 lane road. (i've had several races at this light) As I am moving over to get next to him, I see an arm stick out the window with one finger.

Here's the conversation:
Me: what the hell was that for?
Him: F*ck hondas.
Me (to the girl): Hey baby, wanna go for a ride in a real car?
Him : F*ck you.
Me (to her again): So what do you say?
Her: I like your car. maybe...
Him : F*ck that.
Me: Can you say anything other than F*ck followed by one word?
Him: Your car is slow. Nice 2 point slow liter engine.

At this point, the girl hits him in the arm and tells him to shut up. He starts yellin at her, and they start arguing...

Light turns, and I go, I let him stay even with me til about 25mph and then I go and bury him. (it goes to one lane now) The next light is also red. Stop side by side again. I look over, and he's still arguing with this girl.
Me: would you like a further lesson?
Him: F*ck you.
Me: Hey Mitchell International airport called... they want their 747 wing back.
Him: It's called downforce.
Me: Yeah, if you are going 150mph.
Him: I top out at 160.
(lol. look again mario andretti, you are driving a tiburon)

Okay, now I'm sh*tting my pants cuz I'm laughing so hard. (goes nicely with the laughing pee from before) Light turns, I don't launch and I give him a nice a$$ handing again.

If I have to race one more damn tiburon.... I'm starting to think only a$$holes drive these things.

ya know, before I bought my ex, I was seriously considering one of those. You know what stopped me? 2 things. 1st, after looking at it for many hours, I decided it was too much of a girls car. Even with the new agressive look, it just looks like a chicks car. 2nd, have you seen the guys that drive these things?

If you buy a Hyundai, you bought a warranty. Nothing more. That's their marketing ploy.

I'll take that over my civic though. heh.

nice story. you should be a writer. heh.

I dont see how people can buy their car not knowing much about it (obvious he doesn't since he thinks it tops out at 160)

those things are low 15s with a good driver, nothing a S2000 can't handle.

you should have mention to him that your 2.0 liter engine pumps out more horsepower to the wheel than his 2.7 v6 to the flywheel. if he even knows his horsepower numbers anyway.
