2004 Auto Max 3.5 Vs C320
I was at a light and a 3.5 maxima pulled up we both gave it gas but noone floored it.. i stayed in front as we entered the belt pkwy from flatbush.. then he is following every move i make he is behind me.. so he pulls next to me and i roll the window down we go from 65 to a 50 roll and i asked him if hes racing me and he says lets go and floors it before me so i mash the gas down and am in second gear and he pulled his car in front of me as were going i switch into the next lane and he pulls about a fender more and the pull stops at arond 85 we keep it floored and im starting to pull by the end of 3rd gear... now im at 105 in forth and i have about half a car inbetween we continue to 125 the pull was so hard from 110 on i couldnt beleave it i pulled 4 carlegnths away from him by 125 i pulled off the next exit and he followed we starting talking and he was like wow that little benz is quick i thought for sure i was taking it... i told him if it makes you sleep better at night i have a performance chip and he laughed.. all around nice guy.. anyway thats my story enjoy all c320 owners..

top end of 3rd gave me the lead in the race id say from 88 to the end of third 97 4th gear gave me the greatest distance it was like the car woke up... i think our ram air system and having the chip really put my car ahead of his on the top end...

nice kill. if it's an auto maxima, then the slushbox also slowed him down. those autos are notorious for slowing the car down, as compared to the manual. and after driving one firsthand (auto 3.5), i can honestly say that the car does not feel like it has 260hp. and the torque steer is insane. i was fighting the wheel at 40 when flooring it. just some info. nice kill anyway.
RWD! I love the G35!
