Hi gyes,
was just coming home from work, traffic lights, next to me a gye with his BMW 750Li reving.First place both of us.Make my dark window down, and said, " u r for a sprint?" He says.."you got no chance!" I say.."100 backs?" and put the S mode.So when turned green, was waiting see what he is doing, then i hert him spinning, so me full throttle, he was 2 meters infront of me, but within 200 meters i catch him, and took over! Don't mess with an XJR !

Just to remind you of the Glory of our cars.Of course he disappeard, and no 100 backs!

 

Down here in Miami you'd get in A LOT of trouble for not paying on that bet.. But a very good kill story for sure. I killed a new M3 a couple of months ago. Some kid with his girlfriend revving his engine at me when we were both first at the light. Still had the dealer tag. Light turns green and he spins all the way through the intersection and I took him by 3 car lengths up to 150. When he pulled up next to me at the next light his girlfriend was laughing at him because he got beat by a 4,300lb sedan. Haha BMW guys never know how to drive.

 

Well Doen guys , XJRs are totally beasts more powerful than XJ12 as well

 

great story

 

Yeah, all of these BMW driving ******..

 

This is by far the most retarded post ever...

 

lol thanks for the vote of confidence Eric!

 

Haha I knew I was going to get sh*t for that comment, but I figured ehh what the hell.. I'll take my chances You know I didn't mean anything by it. I just hate the 16 year old spiky haired kids racing around town in the 3-series coupes thinking they're hot sh*t.. It brings a smile on my face when I toast them. I pulled up next to one of them in my duster one day and spooled up my turbo and I think he peed himself. Lol Eric

 

I remember my first beer......

 

Thanks my dear, i love you too!

 

Costas, can't please everyone.

How about putting some pics of your XJR and that Lotus in a member photo gallery. I would love to see the Esprit!

 

I really try not to do it very often, because here in California, they are looking for any way the can to raise funds, But...

I've taken a 2009 Mustang GT California Special and a Mercedes 500SL. Both gave me a little run for it, but I pulled away each time.

Mercedes was from a stop light, (My Brother's Car, he was very surprised).

Mustang was on Freeway from 70MPH to who knows what speed. I was not looking at speed because I was in the middle of our Highway Patrol Training Area where they practice overtaking cars. I'd love to know how I'd do against one of the Highway Patrol cars. Hehehe But I'd rather not spend a couple nights in jail to find out.

 

Here, with pleasure. It,s 1990 Model, but in excellent shape, like new from show room, as i take extreme good care of that car! Originally 218 HP, but with Turbo turned from factory 0.6 bar to 1.0 bar, it makes the car having 250+ HP.
Hope you like it. Later on, my XJR, am working now.

 

Thanks Costas! Seriously, i would love a ride in the car, even if its just around the block. Yah, i'll let you know if I ever make it to the UAE. I had dreams of owning that similar model, maybe a few years newer, but same style. She's a beaut!
