EVERETT, Wash. (AP) - The Washington State Patrol says a trooper
arrested
two men speeding 141 mph on I-5 in Snohomish County. The patrol says
the
trooper thought he was hearing an airplane early Sunday as the cars
whizzed by going north, a 2005 BMW 330i with a 2007 Honda Accord right
behind.

The trooper caught up with the cars because they had stopped for a
passenger from one of the cars to get into the other.

The 22-year-old driver of the BMW, and the 18-year-old driver of the
Honda
were booked into the Snohomish County Jail for charges of reckless
driving.

My 2004 BMW 330i really isn't all that fast or quick. BMW has been
rather
conservative with its power on the standard vehicles, the M-group cars
excepted.

330 is capable of 0-60 in just under 6 seconds...

Not according to BMW's stats. I tend to believe BMWs are underpowered, at
least until you get to the M-series cars. And of course the new 335i is
fairly potent.
