How many people have challenged you on the road and what were they driving. I get challenged all the time, it's hard to resist the temptation...
Edit: Why are you sitting in the passengers seat :-))

i literally just picked it up from the dealer so so far nobody. i did see a Golf R two lanes over but he turned right

i'll keep you updated. i'm really looking forward to surprising a Porsche Boxster/Cayman.

What car were you driving before? I plan on purchasing a 2016 M235i soon. First I need to sell my s2000.

I've had mine for 5 days now. Loving every moment of it, especially in Atlanta with the weather we have been having.

Do you really think it gets that much better fuel economy? I had an X1 4 banger loaner, I drove it like I drive my M235 and the it was getting maybe 2 or 3 miles per gallon better.
