Can I conclude that the c63 AMG 507 is the F18 of performance cars?

By that you mean there is faster, more maneuverable and more technologically advanced stuff? Then yes. Haha. Both are still a blast and a privilige though. And both are useless with a moron at the controls.

From someone who just lost a very close friend who recently lost his life in his F-18 (VMFA-232 Red Devils) I salute you sir (and all military) for what you do.

RIP. I didn't know him personally but a lot of people I work with went through flight school with him. I'm sorry for your loss. It's always terrible to lose a fellow aviator, but it's an unfortunate cost of doing business sometimes. He's not the first, and sadly he won't he the last.

Better in many ways, but I wish we had more gas, more power, and less drag. Ha. Things I wish for my C63 too! Tomcats will always be sexy though

I've been testing condoms for nearly 20 years. When I was younger, I would test for durability among various operating environments. Now that I'm married, my testing is mostly to see if they still work after remaining in storage for extended periods without being used.
