CLK 500
I've raced a couple e46's with my clk 500 and had very close results. They were all lightly modded as so is my 500. Haven't had any close encounters with any e92's yet but i would imagine I would be left in the dust after second gear. Although I don't have a 550 which is definitely more of a comparison with closer to 400hp rather than 300. IT is pretty awesome how mercedes manages to have non -AMG models competing with M Models from BMW. I personally like Beamers but I'm sure they cant say the same with any standard bmw's keeping up with any type of AMG model. (with exception of possibly a HEAVILY modded 1-335i).

Everything can be settled with posted drag slips, everything else is just useless banter IMO. When the drag slips open up in the spring guys should run, post and STFU.

Well aside from the bad weather we've had,many are waiting for the Two Badblack CLK550's and anybody with a E90 M3 to step up to the plate. Especially me,my buddy's with the M5,another one with a 300C SRT8,and another with a E90 M3 and hopefully an ISF.
The M5,SRT8 and myself have run against each other several times. The CLK's are the one's that have not shown up on several occasions.

Anything can happen in a street race & many factors (weather, drivers, street quality, launch, etc..) can affect the outcome. That being said, i find it hard to believe that a stock CLK550 beat multiple M3's. One race, one car, maybe. But four separate M's in four separate races? That's a real tough one to swallow.
