New C v 2004 325ci

I got my c300 a couple of months ago, girlfriend was jealous, so she just bought a 04 325ci (used and abused) for $19,000. My neighbor wants to see a race, I will but I might not if I know I'm gonna get spanked. What do you think race or say nah ,"too immature for me"

The w203 c230 kompressor and 325i were about equal. You should be faster but anything can happen in real life. Street racing is bad though, mmmk.

And welcome to mbworld.

i had to laugh when i heard that your GF got jealous. thats awesome. i think that you car has the edge. i believe the 325 had less than 200 horse back then. a friend of mine use to have a 328 04 and i had a v6 accord and wooped him. your 300 should spank your girls car.

if you do race make sure you wager something like bikini car washes for the next month....if you lose get ready to rock that speedo

A 325ci has a 2.5 liter engine which produces 184 horse power...
a 335ci is other history, 231HP.




PD: (328ci = 192hp)

With a C300 with 3L V6 and 170kW (don't know horsepowers), you should be able to easily beat your girlfriend with her 2.5L and 142/160kW (not sure which one) engine. Not to mention torque - you should have 300Nm compared to 250.

If you lose, there is only one explanation..... she is a much better driver.
Good luck to both of you.
