I don't care much about this topic. All this talk about who's faster never gets anywhere.
Just to clarify about my times. Those times are real and without nos. I got a chip and pulley, eisenmann exhaust, renntech rims and new battery. You can just ask some other forum members who were there at the track. Running 12.3 is only under optimal conditions. I doubt I can run that time on a regular road without some sticky sticky during my launch and spare tire out of my car and low fuel tank.

Naaa I owned a 2001 S Class w/after market Supercharger, Custom paint job all 2003 AMG body upgrades, Bi-Xenons 20" wheels etc...It was a fun car for a while...Love Merc AMG styling, wish I could've afforded one of the TT 65's though...great cars...
There's plenty of pic's and my whole modding history w/it here on the forum..

Guy..I can back my words up..I've raced people from this forum that drive faster cars than you've ever been in...Ask them I've mentioned them by name...
Your proof a lame video?? Where you claim ownership of a a slow *** F-body running a C6 stuck in the Valdez oil spill
Where's any time slips from your AMG C32? C6 Vette? or any car for that matter? Zero
Yes you are a RICER typical ricer verbage---Quote Uberrice--"I was dead even w/F430 in my srt" You probably do say this crap on other forums...
Test driving a C6 isn't any where near the same as owning one or racing one to get an Idea of what it can actually do...once again your a joke!!
There you go again stooping to Ripping on the C6 because you don't own one you lash out like a child, but in other posts you deny being the devils advocate? obviously not so...
I could play you mentally like a fiddle all day long, your a joke go back to City College and try again..... after you get a degree in something besides runing srt rice on Mercedes forums.. And lying/dreaming about owning future and present cars
As far as an 2006-2007 C6 Z06 going for 40k in 2 yrs...Not gonna happen guy, at best 49k or more...The reg 2005 C6 is still going for 36-40k, the 2004 C5 Z06 is still in the 38-40k range w/low miles of course...
You've got a lot to learn guy, pretty funny watching you stick your foot in your mouth countless times though..

Just as you mentioned its a waste of time. Do the runs and people will see those results against you not the people they bested. But keep in mind that 2morrow someone else will say they bested a C6 are you gonna race them? Some people will lose in a C6 just like in any other car what does it matter! Be happy of what you got thats all that matters. All to most American cars lose way more value then any european car. What sucks is a very expansive car still has a hard time with 2days and some of yesterday 600 and liter bikes. I remember telling a Viper owner what his car cost and after his 80k reply I said well my 10k bike will spank your ***. But I thought about it and thought to myself how arraggant and a-hole I sounded. At the end it really doesn't matter. I had raced a Viper on my R1 many years ago and after SMOKING him I really didn't get nothing out of it except proof of what I already knew. Your C6 might be a wonder but so what I am happy for you. Keep in mind if alot of us really wanted a C6 we would of bought one instead of these pricey Benzs.
Yeah I prolly will race'em if there close enough for a friendly sparring match..
Edit: All my races aren't only about what other cars my friends beat but mostly about who I've beaten from this forum..
Mario's highly modded E55, I used to beat him, now we run dead even..
Falco's stock SLK55, I beat him...

You keep on making up excuses for the C6 run. That is a ricer. He lost. He was cool with it why can't you be? I was 2 tenths and a mph behind him. If my F-body was slow, so was the C6. And would the video be lame if the C6 won? I think not.
Not ripping on the C6 in general. I just feel the 06 is a better buy. Especially if you were going to get an auto. A6>A4 Plus the 06 got the beefier rear. And a bunch of other things.
Test driving is not a big deal. Exactly! That's why I never brought it up. Thanks again for proving yet another point.
And reading>you. I have raced C6's you even seen a vid.
I understand why you are all hyped up about your C6 though. You used to own a slow tank. Now you got some power and your pumped, understandable.
And I will. I have owned quite afew cars in my only 7 years of driving. I bought my 99 Vette when I was 18. I have taken a break, due to a change in priorities.
I said 40k range. Not 40k. 49k would be included. And they are advertising brand new vettes for 39k here. An 06 Z06 with about 25-30k, will go for the 40k range, 40-49k.
And I have seen 05's in the paper with low mileage for 34,900. Its a buyers market. Cars have always been cheaper here than cali. ANd that is asking price.
Who is sticking what where?
Btw, curious why didn't you step up and just buy the Z06?

Here are some of my past time slips, where are yours?
This is what my SRT-4 did bone stock. Notice the sig....
This was vs a C5 Z06, full exhaust, intake and tune. He said 400whp on the nose. It sounded great.
Here is my dyno run on the slow T/A.
Here is a dyno of my 05 Acura RSX Type S
Dyno of one of my other SRT's
The time slip for the same SRT
See I actually run my cars, unlike you where all you run is your mouth.

You may have raced very fast cars, but I have been in some serious autos. GT35 powered STi. 60 trim SS. 450whp mustang GT. A couple 11 second SRT-4's. Both trap 120 plus. The STi and SS are both over 500whp. And probably the fastest car I have ever been in is a 675whp GN.

I've never been a track rat but I do have my stock LS2 dyno if you want I'll scan it? enough arguing you broke Thericker

I've never been a track ratt, but love to street race, Enough arguing you broke Thericker till Saturday will conclude this session..
I do have my Stock Dyno sheet, if you want I'll scan and post it?
Also my Sclass wasn't that slow I beat a WRX roll-on freeway, I had an aftermarket supercharger on her...but over all yes she was a sloppy pig compared to this C6..

Mario's highly modded E55, I used to beat him, now we run dead even..
Falco's stock SLK55, I beat him...

2002 C32 and 2009 Audi S5
By stating "same deal in the twisties" I was saying my 1998 C5 was better in the twisties, just like it was better at acceleration, not that the too cars were the same.
But let's face it, the C5 kinda sucked in the corners too, just not as bad as the C32.
