this was on friday but my internet has been pound f&_k_&^ for the past two weeks and i finally got it up and running normally again today.
anyway, im on road X78XX going north when i see and hear something green fly up next to me. he then slams on the brakes, i know this because his ghey mustang altezzas lit up all homosexual like and his bumper says mustang GT…so i say to myself this is exactly what i have been waiting for the slowest V8 possible to whoop up on…
so were doing 45mph and im in 5th, he downshifts in what is most likely 3rd, i do the same, and he takes off, i catch/pass/pull on him quicker than he can know what hit him and have already pulled 3-5 cars by the time we hit 100mph, and this is only because my car was made for 3-5 gear and produces 258lb/ft TQ in 3rd
…
we then catch a light and are behind a car each, so i leave it in first, he does the same and we let the people in front get a good lead on us…we go, i pull hard again, even with the SLaab’s SLaaby 1-2nd shift(anyone who has driven a saab knows the throw from 1-2 is about the distance from NY to LA) up to about 70mph…
…we catch another light, he pulls in the turning lane, says nice car and turns left.

Were his exhaust pipes under the bumper or were there bumper cutouts for them? I.E. was it a 95-98 or 99+? I just want to know how impressed to be. 😛
Oh wait, nevermind, you never saw the back of his car. 🤣
