C320 Coupe
Picked up my Car

Picked up my C320C on Wednesday night. Been driving it every since. I wasn't sure about the panorama roof, but the more I use it, the more I love it.

My son now wants to trade his RSX-S. Been getting a lot of looks. It's amazing, even had teenagers in a V-6 Camaro want to race.

Oooh, a V-6 Camaro, the US version of a Citroën 2CV! You should have revved it up a bit at the light then let them fry their drivetrain on their way to a stunning 15 second 0-60 time

I did this once to a guy in a Jaguar (when I was driving a 404 Injection)...he shot off and I drive normally, and about 1 km ahead I passed him when he was at the radar trap being ticketed :p

I just let him brake torque and smoke his tires a little. I don't race on the streets.

Try driving your new Coupe here in Daytona, during spring break and the car shows, every ricer wants to try the Coupe. I am like you , no racing on the streets, save it for auto-x, but it's hard not to let it go, must be getting old.
