Dude, i want my 15 minutes back !!!

Street race anything can happen !
CLK550
Horsepower 382 @ 6000 RPM Torque (lb-ft) 391 @ 2800 RPM
M3
Horsepower 414 @ 8300 RPM Torque (lb-ft) 295 @ 3900 RPM
M3 only 295 torque so very possible a win for CLK550
Hp are very close number but look at the torque 96 different.

Here is one example, I got walked by a Camry V6 once ! not because my IC pump problem because I was not paying attention and i didn't punch it. It was like 20mph to 60 so anything is possible in the street. Plus, the performance number are very close.

The torque difference is MORE than covered by the REVs difference. That's why the formula for HP is what it is.

NY01,
this thread of full of a bunch of idiots! Wuts up with that??!!!

why would u lie about beating an M3? its really stupid.

when i had my C43 years ago, i beat plenty of e39 M5's on the highway and rolling. numbers say e39 would kill me but in real world, things are different.

so many idiots on this thread such as Jonz95 and Improviz morons a-holes!

Oh yeah, I'm sure you just killed lots of 400 horse, 3900-ish pound M5s in high speed runs in a 300 horse, 3500 pound-ish C43. Heck, I mean, they were only about a second or so and 8 or 9 mph apart in the 1/4 mile...easy to believe you could stomp one of those things all the way up to 150!!

yep! its called young dudes who can't drive a 6 speed correctly! again, you keep bringing up stupid numbers from expert drivers....and it doesnt matter if you believe it or not. you come on here and attack people who post kills; who have no reason whatsoever to lie about it...

its very believable a CLK550 can hang with a e92 m3. go to youtube idiot! an e46 m3 can keep up with an e92 M3! forget what expert driver stats say....real world results!

You're right, I don't believe it, chiefly because I have real world experience against C43s and E39 M5s in my old CLK55, and the two weren't even close. Can't drive a six speed? A third gear pull in an M5 from 60 to 110, a decent 3-4 shift, and boom, that'll get him to 146 in fourth; this would wax a C43 by buslengths, no expert driver needed for that.

Hey, buzz off newb...if you don't like it, don't read it. Last time I checked this forum didn't have your name on it, and people who post dubious kill stories here are gonna get called on it, so deal with it or take your little red wagon and go home to mommy.

Wow, guess i should go run and hide under the bed, Mr Internet Tough Guy is in town Umm, I believe you are playing the role of keyboard warrior, along with would-be censor, class clown (unintentionally), and too many others to list.

Btw for someone who doesn't care what I think, you sure do make a lot of time to argue about it.

nope! that is you. a person who is proactively antagonistic like u are to others is a typical coward in real life.

because you have no ***** in real life, you need to do it on a forum when others post good spirited information that is supposed be fun!

typical coward in real life....dont hide this bro. i can tell u are...

Well, your psychoanalytical skills, insight , and mind reading abilities are right up there with your IQ, friend. Keep your day job sweeping floors or whatever it is you do on your summer vacation, I've got a real job and it's time to sign off.

Just be sure of one thing: no matter how much silly BS you post trying to tell me what not to post, it ain't gonna change a damn thing, so chew on that, wannabe tough guy. In my experience the ones that talk and threaten the most are the ones who do the running when the rubber meets the road, and I'm about as scared of you as I was the last crap I took.

Now go sweep some floors, son. You're out of your element, try idiotsandmorons.com

love your CLK550 by the way! awesome mods and killer look! white is rare for CLK550.

i do believe a CLK550 can keep up or beat e92 M3's

Hell, i saw E46 M3 keep up with e92 M3's in quarter mile and rolling start!

I know CLK550 can destroy an e46 m3!

good call. its truly dumb when some of these guys come on here and start trashing other people for no reason...

CLK550 is a beast. it can outrun the w209 CLK55...and CLK55 can also keep up with E92 M3's!

I assure you that you have absolutely know way of knowing what my net worth is, or anything else about me, and further, if you're such an extremely wealthy man, you wouldn't be shopping for decade-old cars, now would you?

Guess you'll find out how wrong that is if you are ever unfortunate enough to meet me face to face. If you're ever in Texas, be sure to write me up and let me know that you're wanting to take out the big coward, should be good for a laugh.
