I just blew the door off a 190 E 2.3l today !! he he ..(looked like a 1985). Me in my 135K mi, 77hp diesel, 0-60 in 17 sec.... Just shows you-it's not the car, it's the driver <br> (to ssb-on the Blue Route in rush hour!)<br> <br> ;-P

Nice job! On the Blue Route too! I've had a similar experience, however with a CL55 on the Turnpike (276)..he just kept choosing the ewrong lanes...wooped him good in my little 190E with 120K at the time.

That CL driver must be pretty stupid. If he knew what he was doing there was NO contest between you two! I love the CLs!!!! Though, if I were to hit the money and buy a new, quick benzito, I'd have to go with the SLK AMG 0-60 in 4.8! That's a quick little V6!!!

Old guy with too much money and no common sense.<br> I agree, he should have toasted me. I have to agree with you on the SLK's those are beautiful.<br> I'd pretty much take any new Benz, although I'm not overly impressed with that little downsized 2.3 'civic' wannabe. Its way too much for what you're getting, save your cash and buy a lightly used Benz.<br> <br> later<br> <br> ssb

That little C class is a cute little car. Some guys from the mercedes shop website test drove one and said it was a fun little car and it was really nice for what it was. Definately no S or E or 190... Though once you start loading it up to make it all Benz it's the cost of the step up C240 (number correct?).

Guys!! You will never guess the fastest 0-60mph IN THE WORLD for a 4-door sedan! Nope-none you just thought of !<br> <br> Mitsubishi Lancer (!!!) Evolution 6 (developed as a World Rally Championship car sold to public only in Japan)<br> 0-60 in 4.2 seconds! They beat Porshe 911!<br> <br>
