Recently I was driving 130km/h on the highway and suddenly a bmw 520d came passed me at large speed. But a little further, he had to brake and slow down because of a van. I swithed to the same lane and kept 50m distance. And when the van moved to another lane; we both acceleted from 130km/h until 210km/h. Allthough it were just a few seconds; I couldn't get any closer to the other 520d.

I expected that a 313hp x3 would have a better throttle than a 520d (normally 163hp or 184hp). Or do I expect too much?
Has anybody the same expierence?
