...This will never end...230 boys, let them all stand around their 240 circle jerk 'til their hearts are content, but please stop feeding their flames of spinsanity.

Dood. drivetrain loss from 4matic is close to 30%
whatever
I think you are living in a castle made of sand, all this **** never happened til the younger crowd started buying 05 c230k thinking they've got a friggin' rocket n ****
Go ahead, search back to 2002 and you will not see a SINGLE thread about this.
Drivetrain loss.. an excuse, you are pathetic.
Delbomber : I can run faster than you
Johnny: But I only have 1 leg and am carrying a 60 pound bag
Delbomber: NO EXCUSE!!!!!!!!!!

This will never be resolved. Notice no one ever disputes my statement that in normal driving speed ranges the 230 wins everytime. That;s all that matters.

I came from a G35, the power of which would have cost an additional $20K+ in an MB...so believe me, there is no way in hell I think the C230 is a rocket...but that doesn't mean I won't defend it against a completely flawed, irrational argument.

If you read the Kill Story post I made, I said you can't race a 4matic 240 to resolve this.
