Default Friendly racing with my roomies C32

so just did some google searching and found some specs and stuff, sounds like they are a quick little car, faster than a 911 or M3 from 0-60.

and capable with 2 full size adults of 0-62 in 5.2 seconds [4.5 with single driver, driven well]

yea thats pretty impressive for a 6cyl boosted if you ask me, especially in a 4 door sedan! gotta love mercedes, comfort, performance, and luxury.

no other car company car put those 3 traits into a car as well as MB.

I ran into one on my morning commute one day. Pretty fricken quick, especially if you let the thing get the jump on you. You're basically playing catch up at that point and you need a lot of road to walk one, if it's anything more than stock.

I actually had a better run with the C32 AMG than the new C55 AMG.

Go figure...

what part of AZ are you in? it was hilarious out there too, evo8s and 9s ran 14.0 @ 99mph and 97mph... with some mods done on them. srt4s ran similar times...disgusting if you ask me. 13.3 with an lt1 is very good out here. stock they are what mid 14s?
