I was racing this m3 on the freeway down in seattle last night, and he was trying to keep up with me but he couldn't get in front of me, then i passed him goin about 125 and he just flashed his highs at me and slowed down to 60. and i got off the freeway, headed home
yea my corolla has a 1.6L EFI 4AFE engine with a AEM intake kit. but i know BMW's are fast but when I slowed down to get off at my exit. we were next to eachother and he looked at me with a confuzed face. kinda like WTF. I was surprised, but then again the driver looked about my age (19). but i have experience driving fast, i used to own a turbo 2 mazda rx7, so i kinda know how to handle high speeds, but then again it might not have been his car and he didn't want to drive it fast or some thing because i don't know any 19yr olds that own the title to any m3. haha.

While I don't doubt your experience and story here, I surely DON'T believe that the M3 couldn't beat you.
The driver probably wasn't skilled enough or courageous enough to press the peddle.
The M3 is a 6 speed and I've done 130 in just 5th gear in mine so it wasn't a matter of the M3 not being able to hang.
With the rev limiter removed from firmware the M3 will do well into the 170mph range.
