Richard N said:My most memorable encounter with a supercar was back in the 70s. I was driving along and heard this terrible backfiring and racket. As I stopped for the light, I looked to my right and pulled up into a gas station was a Lamborghini Miura with its hatch up and the driver was poking around but having no effect. The light turned green and I stepped on the clutch and shifted into first and drove away from the awful noises of the Miura in my Volkswagen and said to myself "I'm glad I'm not that guy."

I' m the driver of a 68 hp Grande Punto and the other day on the crowded bordeaux motorway I spotted a Maserati miserably stuck in a trafic jam. I sneaked past it on a faster line and roared my 68hp engine as loud as i could (5000 rpm, VROOOAAAR) before speeding away...

Foo Fighter said:Well my 72 VW has/had when new, a whopping 55 BHP. On saturday I cruised efficiently past a BMW M6. I know, never on power but wth, I like my car and lifetime emissions will be beating the average electric milk float, sorry, car for some time to come due to lower mileage over quite a lifetime taking care of production impact etc. My beast will see me out and I hope go on too.
