For those Seattleites...
Driving on the Carpool lane, southboud I-5.
I5/405 junction.

An S4 (the badge said, anyway) cut in front of me, nearly clipping Lachesis in the nose. I honked, and my wife is also on the war-path with this driver from Oregon, making faces and asking me over-and-over "did you see what that guy did?".

I sped up, lined up, and opened my dark window to see who it was. The S4 sped off, I chase. The S4 is taking wierd lines in cornering, and we decide that the driver is a novice. The S4 continues to speed around the curves (no traffic), and onto a straight stretch (wide open), with exhaust visibly shooting out of the rear. I blip the accelerator to get the compressor spooled up, pop it in 4th, and am right on his butt. Passed him, and the S4 is now chasing me! What the heck for!? I knew that this could result in a baaad situation, so I pulled off of the freeway to let the S4 get a ticket somewhere else, alone.

I thought S4's were awesome German Buckets!?
The fuel cut-off didn't even need to kick in (Tach was a little red, the turbo gauge 1/4 in the red, my wife's face beat-red...).

Guess I'm not going to buy an S4 if my '93 900T can smoke it... :)

James.
