I drive what I drive
check it out though. they're 0-60 is 7.2, and quarter mile is 15.6. that is very fast for a tibroun. it is a front wheel drive car, which makes it a lil slower than my rear, actually lot slower. but i still would want to race one, i think it would be very interesting to see....

C230 Sports Coupe
My friend Josh has one. V6 and auto. We raced the other night. he spun just a bit and I took him off the line. At 90mph I had 1.5 cars. Then we raced on the interstate. from 70 ~ 120 I took him by 3 cars. I think a 6speed would be close. they are torque though

i'd say the new tibron might win if its a 6-speed and the driver knows how to drive it. i thought those things have over 200HP?!

180hp I think, it could even be 170. I know my friends V6 has less hp than my coupe

Fast Cars!
I diden't vote because i am not sure.

Someone i went to school with had a 03' Tib V6 6 speed. And i raced him alot. From a stop, going from about 30 and from 65 on the highway. I kept pulling away from him everytime. But that was when i had my pulley. I never raced him without it. But if they do higher 15's in the 1/4 mile and u race him on a track he will beat u. I would have liked to race him when i did not have my pulley, but he did not have his car then.:p

1/4

Tiburon runs 16s in the 1/4 16.2 and it depends I mean its a 6 speed and you have an automatic. What do you usually run, or have you ever gone to the strip?
