BMW M5 E39 vs Porsche Carrera GT ;)


After a brunch I took a little trip with a friend this Saturday. At the "end" of an island it is a stop and U-turn since it is a ferry roll on harbour. When I left the ferry I see a red car approaching, and I think to myself, it cant be a Porsche Carrera GT But it was. I made a U Turn and seems like he just tuned around and hit it

I also hit it and because he was in front with hidden corners and bends he had to take it somewhat easy, so I manage to chase him for a good 20 minmutes on these countryroads

My friend did not have the best cell phone camera but managed to capture the sound at least = wonderful!

FInally we managed to go up next to him at a stoplight and the two persons in the car where laughing alot and the passenger dida "mini applaud" with his hands

A great way to end a Saturday afternoon!

Surreal...
My family's country house is right there, drove that road many of times growing up!
(no GTs though - more old beat up Volvo station wagons...)

Gustav - that was the ferry going to Waxholm from Stenslätten, right?
