I think that wand has gone to that boys head if you ask me. Just about every thread has ricky saying something like "calm down guys" or "it's wand time" or "presto-chango-threado-locko".

While people are disagreeing on this thread, it's not getting to the suspension level or anything. Please, put the wand down and step away from the internet.

The name Lexani instills "irrelevance" in most peoples minds, so without reading my posts they assume the worst.

A CLK55 AMG costs 150% of what your E320 cost, 200% of what your 325 cost, and will blow either of them so far into the weeds that you'd suffer terminal allergies while picking dandelions out of your teeth. So why are you talking smack? Can you say "double standard", or more accurately, "double ridiculous standard"??

OK, fine. So I'll state that a 1976 Honda Civic with the two speed automatic would blow your E320 away. Further, a 50cc moped with the parking brake on would run away from your 325. And because I drive a more expensive car than yours, by your own standard you are prohibited from debating or discussing these patently false, utterly ridiculous claims with me. Insofar as you are concerned, they are now absolute, ironclad facts, and shall stand for eternity without challenge from you. Allright?? Good.

This guy said that the CLS55's performance was "not comparable" to that of the Aston. Clearly, it is not only comparable, it is better by several measures. Clearly, his statement was wrong. Clearly, your economic hero worship does nothing to change these salient facts.

Please a) learn to read, and then b) feel free to read back through this thread and provide any instance of my arguing that the CLS55 is a better car than the Vanquish. In fact, I stated that the Vanquish is one of my all time favorites, and that I would rather have a Vanquish than a CLS55. But this in no way means that the two cars are not comparable in performance, which is what the debate was about.

Learn to read more carefully.

Which, if the CLK55 were the only car I own, might actually be relevant. Unfortunately for you, I own three cars to your zero, unless of course you want me to start bringing *my* parents' cars into the mix...for example, my father's 2005 S500 is worth just about what both of the cars your daddy owns.

And I love how you skipped over the rest of the post....typical. My point was that your justifying LovinSL600's patently false statements simply because he's driving an expensive car is so patently ridiculous that a ten year old could see it...so you're at least two years behind!!
