...so I am driving up the hill from the strip mall on the highway 1 ramp that I have driven up for nearly 3 decades and I am with a BMW M3 at the stop light
...when it turns green we make the 200-300 yard entrance onto a highway on ramp, and he pulls ahead at a great clip unlike any car I have ever seen going uphill onto the long highway stretch
...before I know it, he accelerates to 70+ mph in a very short period of time and enters the long stretch of highway
...usually fast cars don't take the entire hill and get out of the sight of horizon before I enter the same stretch of freeway on the on ramp
...but this car, rated #6 as a top performing sports car by a major car enthusiast magazine, disappears over the horizon unlike any normal looking sedan I have ever seen anytime in nearly 30 years of driving
...what made me aware of the car besides its Firebird or Porsche type speed, was it's low key appearance of a family sedan and the fact that it had a 12 year old looking boy driving it who was undoubtedly around 16 or 17 years old
...while I was outraged at the drag racing style that the boy took off at, I was also similarly impressed at such a normal looking car performing in such a way I have never seen in all my years of driving
