If you're talking about a Mb C32,Mb E55 ,Mb C55,(G35 ,please supercharge it or turbocharge it) or you'll be wasting my time. Whatever you need to do,just bring it! PS you learn alot watching TV!Try it


By the way,try reading my signature,that's all you need to know about my car.And by the way you sound like nothing but a talker.You know the saying.Put up or Shut up!Englsh Town is right around the corner from you!


Forgive me if I sound brash,but I take racing as serious business!

Mitsu Nissan or whatever you bring so that my 4cyl Turbo could handle business

huh, pathetic... make gay jokes well done.

hunts point "sux"? HAHA, have you ever been there? i guess it does suck if you think AMG's, M power, Renntech, and that sort of stuff "sux". Englishtown is for the grease ball with an iroc that thinks hes cool... its only good for showing off ricers and running times... thats not how you race for cash.

stop wasting my time with your tough talk about nothing... you aint got ****. talon? please.

Wes's car feels more bumpy than mine, but that could've been his original shock's getting old. powerwise, the C32 is definitely more powerful and faster, but w/ the C43 the power feels more direct. Steering wise I like my C32's a lot better. the C43 has very light steering which you can just use one hand to drive and park the car. It was precise, but lack in feel.

basically you can't go wrong w/ either car. I think I might be looking to get a used C43 in the future when I get out of college.

I still give mad props to the C32! I love that car. I wonder if its faster than or will be equal to the c55? By the way I know I've seen you on another forum,I think! LOL!

You said I'll lose as if you know whats under my hood.So if you already know I'll lose,why do you need to know whats under my hood.I dont understand? If you were'nt so over confident I probably would have stated it but you said I'd lose so whats the point?Your so confident what does it matter.A friendly run? I'd have no prb wth that but your big mouth said that I'd lose so I'm saying put your $$$ where your big mouth is. I'm not here asking to see whats under your hood.You can come with whatever car you own,you bring your best and I'm bringing mine.I still have not heard my cell phne ring. Next thing your gonna say is that I gave you the wrng #.So either its yes or no and the way I see it your punking out. OK guys C36 or C43? lets continue.

Well, from what I hear the C36 just all and all just handles better then the C43. Also I hear even though the C43 has a faster 0-60 time in the quarter mile the times between the two are almost the same with the C43 having just a very slight edge.

95-96 C36 VS C43
The C36 is 100 lbs heavier, have 34 less HP, a 4 speed tranny...

97 C36 VS C43
The gap is not be very big.

I think the C43 is a wiser choice, and the V8 is so sweet....

1995 C36 AMG
I just recently purchased my C36 AMG and ive got to say its one of the best cars ive ever owned besides my 85 Monte Carlos SS. One word, FAST, eats ricers for lunch and dinner. I was totally suprised at its speeds. I noticed a few people mentioning not being able to get much over 300miles if that per tank. My gas guage wasnt working before so i had to watch my miles before filling up. Well before it practically ran completely out (wasnt paying attention to the gauge)... 368 miles, so it is possible.

Im definately babying this car and plan on keeping it for a while.

1995 C36 AMG & 2004 MINI Cooper S
I had a 2000 S4 before I upgraded to a 1995 C36

I might have enjoyed the S4 if it wasn't in the shop so often!!
that much power in AWD is very fun, but to me.. the MB wins where it really counts.
