Red C32 with crome stockies??
HE also had no respect for what he was racing..
Some imposters with badged C classes are getting into races and getting KILLED by M3's..These M3 guys can't tell the difference..
Plus what a ****head to not stop if someone goes into a wall. He accepted the challenge..he can accept the responsabilty..

If that really was a C32, it could not have been stock as you cannot rev your engine beyond 3-4k in neurtal, and it takes a while to get the revs up (try it) due to the computer programming from the factory. Also, the exhaust on our cars would not be loud enough for the M3 driver to notice it at speed when revved in stock form in neutral. It is a progressive rev and in my opinion, you could not make the car rev loud enough with the limitation of the computer and the stock exhaust for anyone to notice with road noise.
Now follow my logic, the only way that this was a C32, is if it was not stock, likely had exhaust modification and computer change (which accounts for the quicker and higher revving in neutral) and likely if the computer was changed, then ODPS is more than likely present as well. Under this scenario, the M3 would definitely not easily pull away, if anything would be struggling to keep up.
Therefore, I doubt it was an actual C32, and I do hope nobody was hurt.

Reading a story like that is one thing, believing is another thing. The outcome of the story MIGHT be true, that guy might have crashed his car, but there are a lot of mysteries to that story. I think the poster is very biased (he admitted that he hates MB more than public transportation). I dont think M3s have enough torque to pull away from a C32 at 110mph and that the C32 had a hard time catching up. That sounds pretty BS to me.

And he's getting spanked on what he believes to be his own caucus . Nicely done.
"I hate MB more than public transportation". Such a ludicrous statement that befits a mere 16 year old spending his parents' cash.

Story sounds fake, BTW, but...
if it really happened, I'm sure it will teach a lot of people a lesson. Over at the BMW site they are already ripping the M3 driver a new a-hole. Some are even trying to turn the M3 driver in to the local police.
Read the messages...great.
You got to have a lot of respect for most of the chaps over at the bimmer website, no one is saying "great kill", most are condemning the reckless driving.
Lesson learned: just say "NO" to this type of driving with your "ego" BS.

white and whiter
it probably was just another C230k.
because from speed above 60mph full throttle = bye bye M3 as I've done so couple time myself.
btw, hope no innocent bystander was hurt...

It is BS. The city was full of cops. There are always cops around UN. They were using a Fuji blimp this week to monitor the city. No way you can go 135 for more than a mile without being chased by cops. And there is no direct entrance to Grand Central from FDR.

I doubt any of this is true hoesntly I laught at all this M3 vs AMG bull**** both cars are very good and very well capable just one is slight faster then the other no need to start flame wars and mine is better then yours. This "KID" doesnt own and M3 and he never raced anyone he is just trying to get some attention.

There is a very famous Chinese proverb " Pain comes when over-joy " .
I still remember that day I was driving my Z3 2.2 like a gentleman. While I was braking at the traffic light that turning yellow; a roar from my back that was a Skyline GTR flooring max. speed passed me by. He also passed the traffic light when it was red !
What a hero he was! And what I saw next, a traffic police on his motorbike chased that GTR and stopped that poor guy.
Here , the penalty for passing traffic light at red is 6 months suspension of driving license.
The pity thing was he only beated a 2.2 Z3 for that punishment
cnt

IMO, we shouldn’t be so concerned w/ dissecting whether it was a genuine C32 AMG, that somewhat reflects poorly on us that we don’t seem to be as concerned over the well-being of the C32 AMG driver.
The M3 driver deserves the criticism he’s getting from his fellow members, & I hope that the C32 AMG driver is OK.

Well if this story were true than God Bless the benz driver..But as for the facts this guy in the m3 was even saying he hated Mercedes so thats one reason whyd he be lying..second is anyone in a C32 (knowing they have a very fast car in their hands) would not be revving their car at a toll or w/e...that wouldnt impress anyone lol unless you have exhaust and chip as said before..and if this C32 would of had those mods then the m3 wouldnt be toying with it..Im glad the m3 ppl are contacting the police becuz this guy deserves to get in trouble even if its just for flaming...Im actually helping them because i have alot of family in the police and fbi here in miami florida....right now we are going thru some hurricane problems but once monday comes ill see what i can do to get this guy in trouble I alrady got all his information due to his IP address and he does live where he claims..
LOE PLAYA18 IS VERYYYY MADDDDDDD
