2003 C240 6 Speed
Porsche....

924S heh

yeah yeah, I have a 03 C240 w/ 6speed.

was driving a friend to work this morning and on the way back I could see a 924 racing around darting in an out of traffic, happened to get beside him at a light.

said "hey man, nice car" and he said "same to you"

then smiled and said "now lets see what its got"

so off we went, my car doesn't launch worth a damn because drive by wire is garbage and wont let me do what I want, so we went he was about car and a half infront, by the end of 3rd I was just passing him.

always nice to beat a porsche in a luxry sedan... even if its a slow porsche hah.

A 1988 924S has 160 and weighs 2734 lbs. THe C240 weighs 3250 lbs and has 168 hp and is rated 0-60 in 9.2 seconds while the 1988 924S does it in 7.5 seconds.

924s hp/lb = 17.08

C240 hp/lb = 19.34

The early 924s had 147 hp and even that has a hp/lb ratio of 18.60.

Anything is possible on the street but the 924s in proper tune is the faster/quicker car.

what you guys are forgetting is the porsche is older than me, who knows the state of the motor.
