    Default S8 being douchey

    Is there an S8 in St. Louis Park that just generally drives like a jackass? This was about an hour ago, it was black, and the driver didn't appreciate me slowing down for a slow-moving truck that was forcing itself onto the freeway. The S8 driver's solution to the problem?: Honk at me a lot, barely avoid hitting me and the curb while passing me on the right in a 1-lane area going about 75mph, cut very close in front of me so that he could pass the truck on the left while avoiding hitting the wall that was on his left, while continuously flooring it the whole time. I certainly learned my lesson: don't slow down for less-capable vehicles, just do something dangerous around them instead.

    It had a few stickers on it, Imola probably being one of them. It was a bit hard to tell though, being that I was trying to not get the customer car I was driving destroyed.

    pretty sure it wasn't ours.

    A: Tim drives like a grandma (literally)
    B: our black S8 has no a/c so we've been driving the grey one.
    C: stickers are on lower panels and rear window on our S8.

    If it was for sure our car i apologize. However I have asked everyone who's been driving customers around if any incident like this happened and they said no.

    I don't think it would be an Imola employee.

    Perhaps a customer or fanboi, but I strongly doubt employee. They have better cars to drive like razekor, and jobs to keep. lol

    Ha, if he was sliding around like that on the highway, I would have watched in awe and then laughed when he hit another car.

    To whom it may concern,

    I have seen the imola s8 driven around by ass hats doing well over the 30 mph speed limit on louisiana. So, this behavior is believable from my perspective. Perhaps at the next staff meeting it may be prudent to reiterate that while driving a company car they should remember to keep in mind they represent place of business and a community.

    This story would be better if ktan or similar were behind the wheel of the black 200k S8 and called you out for driving slow
