You will make better attempt by saying you actually went faster than a 991 GT3 in your X5 on several corners.

Your post might make a little sense if this was a Porsche forum or if I had made the story up, neither of which is the case. A troll is someone who does not have the car in question and then goes to that board and then posts repeatedly, usually about how other cars are better. Like a guy with a 1M who posts on an M4 board, for example.
What can I tell you other than that the guy pulled up next to me, paced me for a bit, and then took off. There was some tongue in cheek in my post of course. Why would someone in a GT3 try to race my X5? On the other hand, why would someone in a GT3 try to race me in the e93? Nobody had a problem with that part of the story, even though the X5 is actually faster in most situations.
Maybe he thought it was an M. Maybe he thought I was trying to race him. Maybe it was just coincidence that he decided to punch it then. Maybe he was showing off for someone in the car or saw my wife looking over and wanted to show off to her. No idea.
And as for why it didn't sound so great, maybe he didn't rev it out far enough. Maybe he had a banana in his tailpipe. I have no idea. But I'll take a nice rumbly V8 sound any day over that. As I say, the previous one sounded better, but it was on Sunny Isles Beach between a lot of buildings which echoed and amplified the sound, making it sound like it was on a track.
I'm sure the car is much faster than it appeared from just that short burst. On a track it would be in its element. As for it being the "holy god of cars," I think that is very much a matter of someone else's opinion, but not mine.
