M3 SMKR plate

thetoecutter · 08-05-2010, 05:45 PM

Caught up to some dude (or dudette) on the highway yesterday in a white Lexus IS 350. Had to pull in behind as my exit was coming up. They were trundling along at 30 mph and not keeping up with the flow of traffic as it pulled away so I had already labeled them a wanker. Then I looked down and noticed their plate read M3 SMKR.

%$#@!!!! WHAT???

I tried to get their attention by weaving a little, slowing down and falling back and then punching it but to no avail. I did not want to race or anything - I just wanted to see what they do when, you know, an actual M3shows up. I thought the whole thing was funny as hell. Then I had to exit. I do not think that they ever even realized I was behind them.

It looked and sounded bone stock. Bizarre.

Pure retard

Could have been a sleeper, but at the same time, the Lexus IS is a major piece of shit anyway you look at it... ISF included...

fugin' jagov.....

unless he had VTECH yo...

that's cuz yo VTEC kicked in yo,

just kidding...

who cares whether he thinks he can smoke a M3, if you guys can't prove it on a track, no one knows who's faster. You made yourself look like a jagov doing what you did. I can't stand ppl who weave and speed up etc. trying to race you could have caused accidents.

i can understand an IS F having a plate like that, but a 350?

NOS and double clutching yo!

It's possible that he's successfully raced his high school buddies with M3 badges on their moms' 328's and Civics and whatever.

kaykay · 08-06-2010, 04:56 AM

VTEC yoooooooo!!!!!

Not a "Sleeper" if he posts M3 Killr on the licence plate. That is outright advertising if you ask me.

NatAsp-M3 · 08-06-2010, 05:12 AM

Yeah, I hate obnoxious plates...

There's someone here with a SL65 V-12 biturbo and the plate reads:

"V8 HAHA"

There's soo many pricks in this world.

Georgeair · 08-06-2010, 09:14 AM

I think it means he wanted to blow you.

serge · 08-06-2010, 09:26 AM

That license plate is a big FAIL on a car like the IS350

outie · 08-06-2010, 10:08 AM

You misunderstood the plate. "M3" in this case is not BMW M3, it's Mazda 3.

e92_m3 · 08-06-2010, 10:13 AM

To the OP,

Where was this? I'm from the Bay as well...

LOL this one had me rolling. With the brains this guy is showing M3 is probably an abbreviation for his girlfriend.

101 North between Mountainview and Palo Alto at 4:30PM or so. First I've seen that plate and I've been doing this commute forever.

HILARIOUS! What also funny is when you check out the drivers of these cars, always look like complete douchebags!

He can't even do that as IS350's (and the IS F for that matter) only come with a slushbox.
