C32 AMG Lim. Edit. vs Lamborghini Diablo

Drivin home from Sydney City (30 minute drive to the burbs) at around 3AM.
As I pull up to the lights on a highway, a Lambo Diablo rolls up EVER so slowly.

As a 19 year old I was a bit tenacious and knowing that my C32 had an engine swap because of the supercharge illegality for Non-full license drivers, I was sure I'd lost already, but I still wanted to go.

As the lights I hit green, I pulled it off the double pedal and managed to stick with him, then power shifting through the next 3 gears and pushed ahead, and as he approached I clicked on my overdrive and powered even further.

Next set of lights he gave a nod and drove off.
Best feeling!!!!

Woooooo hang on.
That is in the n/a c180 yes? or did you sell it and buy a 32?
I thought that was all worked out with your mod post which I was one of the few who responded to you seriously.
Lol : 'Pointman' was right.
In candyland that Diablo must have been a kit car with a VW engine planted for that kill story to occur.
Thanks for the laughs.
