A DPS car is racing on the street?

Are you stock? Is he? Automatic? Manual? From a Roll or dig? Needs more info.

You could post and ask if a Civic can beat you, and everyone would laugh, but if it's a high boosting civic and your a stock auto on the freeway... well you'd get raped.

I rode with a neighbor of mine a couple of years ago that had a 540 with a flashed computer and CAI and man that thing was pretty quick! I don't know what it would've run, but it felt really strong!

Be careful....

My friend's stick shift 540i went 13.9@100 mph without an airfilter.
