Zoink, i have 4 or 5 friends with M3's both E36 and E46, i know what they can do, I agree they're in different classes, I didn't get my car to be the fastest, I just try to enjoy it to the fullest!

and finally E420SportGT, I started behind both the M3 and the Mustang, and I passed them at a crawling pace in the traffic jam at first encounter. I have enough knowledge to pick out a badged and kitted wannabe from the real thing, I've seen the ****tiest cars with cardboard bodykits and spoilers so I get practice deciphering what from what all the time down here, I don't need you to tell me what it is I was there, but thanks for your assumptions anyway buddy

You are an idiot. 130 and ran out of juice??? Must of been a 325ci.

Tedypedy, i think the main deal here is that people think you're claiming a kill on an E46 M3 with one of the slowest late model Benz's out there...which is just not going to happen...ever. Michael Schumacher could have been driving your car and the M3 would have still won. Basically your claim to winning this one just indicates that you were willing to be more dangerous than the M3 driver. Which is basically two strikes against you.

Everyone here needs to relax.....First Tedy never claimed to outright kill the M3...He mentioned that he didn't know why the M3 wasn't moving up could of been traffic could of been he was just toying with Tedy, we don't know..
Secondly this is a KILL STORY Forum so what else are people gonna talk about? Quilting? If you don't like stories about racing and speeding then you don't need to be reading these posts, get your thrills in the off-topic section. Obviously there are hipocrites here condemning Tedy and hoping he loses his license but I sure as hell remember being young and reckless...sure some of things I did when I was young were totally reckless and wrong, but hell I did them anyway...its all a part of growing and learning....Tedy in his initial post did not attack anyone or give his .02....he was just telling us a story...give the morals and lessons a break today guys...

this again?

outtadaloop, your intelligence is greatly needed and appreciated in a forum with such rambling morons about such as "blkM3" for someone who owns an M3 your pretty retarded on the subject buddy, when you find me a 325 that comes in Mystic blue, you let me know, the e46 is the only one out of the factory that comes in this color to date, so until that time, you sir are the clear, present and undisputed idiot do you think before you talk or does it require you to seek advise from a more advanced multi-cellular organism in the 2nd grade? keep up the intense research Einstein. Next i beleive you'll tell me that they made phoenix yellow for the E36?
and king, in an attempt to be constructive I'll point out your misjudgements, although seeing as how I got tired of defending my opinions as valid and unbiased against socialist hippies last year or whenever I wrote this post, I might seem a little unforgiving, please forgive me, but F**K whoever is still complaining about other peoples driving habits or opinions on what is fun and resonable, to each his own, now leave it alone. The beginning of my "encounter" w/the M3 was in a more congested area of the freeway, and he was clearly coming after me aggressively, by the time we started to go all out there was relatively no cars in sight, so you can assume he was being careful and not as "dangerous" as me, but if he was willing to push it in a congested area, wouldn't he be more willing to put the hammer down when there's no one around? Your logic confuses me, and yes it is a slow model, compared to a C55, comparitively it would seem quite fast when I judge the distance of a 320 and my rear view mirror So if I haven't given this subject enough attention and needlessly defended my right to live in a free world with inventions such as a speedometer and a 6th gear to use at my discretion, please revive the thread again so I can illustrate the incompetence of those who fell asleep in class for the majority of their education.

I think you're wasting your time. All your rambling just tells all of us that you should spend less time on the computer and more time studying for your SATs. As far as your car being faster than my CLK or not...you can think what you want, i dont know much about your cars modified specs because im embarassed that MB made the sportcoupe to begin with. All i know is that if both were stock my car would destroy yours pretty forcefully, and that no matter what you do to yours, its still going to be the cheapest benz on the market. Or i could just grab the keys the the E430 and destroy your hatch as is. I guess that means i should take out the 430 and race Ferraris for slips! Man if your 230 can beat a 333hp M3, imagine what a 430 could do! I'll get a few Modenas by the end of the week and cut you in on some of the profits when i sell them since you gave me the idea. I dont care what you do on the highway, if you wreck and wrap your embarassment to German engineering around a telephone pole its not going to affect me one bit. You may want to search through here though and read the story by a volunteer fireman who had to tend to a mother and her dying children in their minivan after they were sideswiped by a ricer in a highway race. Its quite sobering.However, your idiocy on the forums claiming to beat an M3 is just amusing. My guess is that he was willing to push it in a congested area because he was racing a gainst a formidable adversary (Read: COBRA) and decided to back off after he won that one and wonder why in the world MB shaped the back of your car they way they did maybe he was taking solice in the idea that BMW isnt the one one that is screwing up their styling these days. As for falling asleep in class, you may be right there...seeing as how im up late studying for a Chinese Politics exam right now (guess that makes me a socialist hippie, who voted straight ticket Republican in '04). You know how voting goes, its a pretty good indicator of one's political ideology. Oh crap you dont, you're in high school. Well, its pretty cool, and midterm exams suck...something you dont know anything about yet, but my break's over, back to work.

I wouldnt be talking smack to people with bigger engines...especially when you took the boost off of yours. What are you going to back it up with? an intercooler? your clear corners? or your rimZZZ?

We drive side by side and he tells me how fast it is that he gets scared of floorin it. Nevertheless, he takes off and damn it looked fast. we drive side by side on another long stretch of road and i gun it and he follows. To my surprise I an get from 45-100 without him passing me. Soon as he hit fourth ALLLLLLLLLL that power came surging, it was a night and day difference. it was like i was braking hard and he was floorin it, cuz he all of a sudden crushed me. There was a silver C32 on this road and when i had passed the sl up i tried to provoke the driver...didn't work. The SL comes flying by both of us (3 lan road) and I try and catch up leaving the C32 behind. never get to see how fast the C32 is compared to me. Anyways I get home and my friend tells me that my car is pretty fast, cuz everytime i floored it before him he couldnt catch up. I think his 99 M3 would crush the SL, maybe until higher end speeds, thats when the SL really shines
Beat SL 500 huh? Wow, you must REEEEALLLY know how to work that 6-speed you've got there.

once again, you are a genius

Wow, I don't know where to start here, let's see...to the future readers of this post I apologize for the presence of such an ignorant fool such as "King320," though to rectify the situation you might have to travel back in time and smack his mother and father in the face for getting too drunk on new years eve. And to be the better man one would advise me to ignore the provocation of this low class poser and do somthing more productive....but its just too fun to pass up the opportunity! Besides the fact that if I ever met this kid in person I'd probably beat the living ***** out of him, I like taking the intellectual path, so I give his therapist some work and save his parents the hospital bill. Now, to the man who owns the world...besides your blatant disregard for factual, implied, or obvious relavance you are second on the list of dumbest people alive, right behind your texas-republican gun flinging counterpart in the oval office. I'll try to not make this too much of a political argument since I have friends and family that are conservative too, but your blind so called "ideology" is the reason thousands of people are dying needlessly and it does say alot about your intelligence. How come you aren't studying on what you contribute to? like Iraqi politics? and why aren't you in Iraq fighitng if you are so proud of your straight republican do what he tells me vote? Besides the fact that while stock I've beaten fixed up C320's/slk320's and the like, i highly doubt your inflated and unbacked self esteem is valid even to the slightest degree. I can prove it to you if you'd like, but I'm afraid that facts might confuse and deviate from your trained reasoning.

"All your rambling just tells all of us that you should spend less time on the computer and more time studying for your SATs."

Seeing how you posted twice in the same day and I hadn't looked at this forum in months, I beleive you should be the one spending less time on your computer. Though its understandable when someone who's unhappy with their quality of life and trying to compensate for their short comings and what god missed a few inches on such as yourself spend's their time on the internet trying to make somthing of their useless and helpless life.

Well to give you somthing to chew on I'm happy to spend a few minutes of my spare time making sense of your nonsense speech you left for me. BTW I took my SAT's a few years ago and I did good enough to get in one of the best business schools in California. I have finals coming up but i get my studying out of the way before I have my fun and argue with the kids from the little bus claiming to be King of 320's. If you'd like, Id be happy to race you, and after I beat you, you can comment a little more about the back end that you'd have a nice view of. BTW my "cheap" mercedes has the same chasis as the CLK, and many of the same parts, so I guess you have one of the cheapest POS made excuse for a german engineered car out there too. What's wrong couldn't afford a 430? or a 55? You had to settle for the cheapest version? For your information I had the choice of getting whatever I wanted on the lot including CLK's and SLK's with the only prerequisite being the car had to be a stick shift. My car happend to be the only one in the showroom that met that requirement and as I was young and impatient I had to get the car on my birthday so there's that mystery solved. I have and will have other cars so it's not a big deal that my daily driver for the time seems cheap to some closet homo in a 320. Your hipocritical and ignorant argument confuses and enfuriates me though I have to admit your stupidity is amusing...would you like to compare your 320 to my C 55? or my 745Li? Or did your hand me down not give you enough leeway to compare yourself to other peolpe and feel good?

You commented on me beating an SL 500, besides the fact that I had just got my car when I posted that, and you obvioiusly did a half assed job of researching my "background" info to make any sense of it, could you please point out in the paragraph you copied where I claimed to beat it? And for arguments sake could you also post the part where I said I beat the M3?

You also said somthing about the M3 trying to race the cobra, I find it hard to beleive you'd have any close idea or revalation as to what happend that day cause you were obviously not there, for your information the M3 was trying to provoke the Cobra and when I passed he found bait so he came my way, and the cobra was blocked in with no choice in the matter. So besides being an idiot and having no life, you're also not making very good arguments. I suggest you go back to elementary school and learn the basics, though you probably don't need to know anything for your "cheap excuse" for a major. Well then, now that I proved you are King of nothing but your own dilluded and disfunctional excuse for a human mind, I suggest you seek some counseling. Is there anything else you'd like to say that will make yourself feel a little more important in the world before you go home at night crying and taking your ***** enlargment pills? I advise you to quit while your behind, because I enjoy showing you exactly how stupid you really are Keep in mind that I'm not as stupid as you look think about that one for a bit lmao!

Again I apologize to other reader's, but it seems like from day one i was bound to be subject to a few arguments from the beginning of the post. I'm sure a few people are finding this just as amusing as I do.

*Yawn*

Would the real slim shady please stand up?

no not you...

Look i dont have time to argue today, but if you want i can go back through and point out where you said that when you floored it first, somehow an SL with an engine twice as big as yours could never catch up...or how no one believed you when you claimed to beat a 330Ci so no one is going to believe you when you claim to beat an M3...and my name is not the "king" of 320s, its my last name combined with 320. I think being called dillusional by someone who thinks that any 230 could beat the kind of stuff you're claiming to beat is comical, and as far as politics goes...my side runs the world right now and its understandable that a california lib like yourself is pissed off, but look at Libya and the Ukraine, they dont seem to mind it so much. Heck even John Stuart last night on the daily show was saying "Ive never seen results like this in this part of the world before." Take a lesson from them. As for my academics, i dont have anything to prove there. And as for my rhetorical abilities, i doubt that anyone who is convinced by your arguments will know good arguing skills when they see them. Oh and one other thing...if you didnt claim to kill the M3, WHY are you posing i mean posting in the KILL STORIES forum. All of your claims about how you'd probably beat me up if we met in person dont surprise me, i've seen your kind before and you lose your bravery once you dont have a keyboard to hide behind anymore. Besides, resorting to profanity and violence is a sure sign of ignorance and an inability to defend your opinions intelligently. Anyways, im off to class, have a great day.

Madman, I've taken classes on persuasive essay's and the like, I wasn't aware that on an internet forum there was grammar and writing guidlines, maybe you should take a few spelling classes and spell the word great right? I didn't ask for opinion, nor do I care what it is you have to say, I live on campus and I know where I am and where I go so why would I need to prove it to some jealous e-punk?

lol funny picture
Elvis the King you are claiming I said somthing when I didn't, are you blind deaf or just stupid? read the post you moron, if you keep saying somthing it doesn't mean that's what happend. My friend in the SL is the one who said when I floored it he couldn't catch up. I however claimed that he would pass me at high speeds. So again with your unbacked claims, from your first post you've been arguing for somthing you have no knowledge of so what's the point? can you admit that you just felt like arguing with someone and picked the kill stories section to post your stupid ideas? As for beating anything, I'm sure the people in the other car's would testify, I've atleast gotten to know them vaguely after racing them or I'm good friends with them and talk to them every day. Instead of pondering the meaning of life, why don't you try the things I've claimed and tell me from your point of view how it came out and then maybe I'll give you some credit as to what you're talking about, until that you're in a gun fight with your ITT-tech alumni pencil. Tell me now, the fact that an automatic 330 with 227hp can beat a manual car with the same hp? Tell me how that either of those car's can't beat a 320 w/215hp? I've had an E class and I have friends with other car's, and over the years I've sparred with the lot of 'em, so by experience alone I'm way more qualified to make a "persuasive" argument for or against it because I have credibility from the plain fact that I've experienced the things I'm talking about and you haven't. Do you think I'm going to beleive you cause your some internet racing expert? So how does your doubting me because of the idea you have in your head make you right?
I stopped coming to this forum for the reason that there is retards about such as yourself, maybe if you change your antagonist view on everything you can get a gf and stop being so bitter about life
I said I won't make it a political argument so you can beleive what you want, you can come back and tell me how good your job is after Bush messes up your opportunities to get a job, maybe you can be the towel boy for the tarheels? I'm not going to try to change you or show you you're wrong, but when someone quotes a FAKE NEWSCASTER from comedy central to prove their views...I feel a great deal of pity for this country...LMFAO
That's all folks

yes madman, quality citizen indeed, you can complain a little more when you start working for me biatch, and to hammer the last nail in the coffin, you were outwitted and outsmarted by this idiot enjoy your day

and I didn't know they still made C240's? weren't those deamed obsolete and underpowered after the introduction of the 230k sedan? good shopping skills you have there

you guys have long overdone your usefulness and I'm not bored enough to pay attention to your BS any longer I have business to attend to so I'm completely over this forum and the genius's that think they own the world who dwell here, Fak u very much, if you have anything else to say, any other fights to pick with me, by all means get a plane over here knock on my door and let me stab you in the eye repeatedly so you can sharpen my pencil for me, I figure you might be good for somthing after all. After that I'll be happy to discuss any discrepencies you have, you people really need to get a life rather than thread hopping looking to get in other people's arguments not expecting to get any friendly words in return.

im not the person who bought an 02 and wasted his money into it by trying to make it look like something it isnt. Nice of you to try and talk trash on the net. You really need to change your personality. I guess hanging with an M3 now consist of you getting infront of it while it is messing with a cobra, and didnt even see you and then saying you had it till what? 100? yea right bud.

The best comment on this revived thread is the moron with the CLK 320 talking about not trash talking folks with bigger motors. A pulley'd M111 2.3l C-Coupe is faster than your 320

You paid more for a CLK and got one of "fake" benz's with more chassis flex and undesirable handling and performance characterists than any other late MB. If you don't know what I am talking about STFF!

What is with this new breed here trashing the coupe these days? You don't have to like the coupe, but you'll have to live with the fact that it's a great handling car, FUN to drive, and desirable to some particularly the M111 powered '02... I am dying to get my video's up of me out braking and out cornering the C32 at VIR just to shut you up. Though something tells me even with video proof, you'll find some excuse of why it happened.


Psssst- Erik, did you by chance mean For Your information? FYI?

WOW...its threads like these that remind me how much this place can be dragged down by a few idiots. The idiots I am referring to are Tedypedy and his little sidekick Humbler.

I'm not going to say racing on the freeway is bad or not....but people that weave in and out of traffic are just plain stupid and they are @ssholes for doing it. Everytime I see some ricer do that ***** it pisses me off. Don't endanger my life because you think you little C230 sport coupe crapper is the bomb. here's a wake up call....its the lowest of the low. You have the most entry level benz as they get. Get over yourself. Stop being an @sshole on the freeway.

Thanks

03 C32 AMG
Comeon guys...

I can understand you guys likeing your C230 sportcoupes, and i am full aware of the fact that the clk320 isnt the fastest benz out there, but look, im not the one claiming to beat M3s here. At least i know my place, which is below the M3, below the 430, but sure as heck above the 230. I'm not going to waste much more time on you guys because anyone who thinks that one of these...

is ever going to get the better any of these...



has completely lost it.
If your only comeback is that your car with a pulley mod, is faster than my car stock, then i think you're really having to scrap for comebacks since that wasnt even an issue until beddywetty brought it up. If you cant argue on topic, dont dare criticize the logic of others, or waste our time.

2003 C230K Sport Coupe, 1986 190E 2.3

All i know is that if both were stock my car would destroy yours pretty forcefully, and that no matter what you do to yours, its still going to be the cheapest benz on the market. Or i could just grab the keys the the E430 and destroy your hatch as is. I guess that means i should take out the 430 and race Ferraris for slips! Man if your 230 can beat a 333hp M3, imagine what a 430 could do! I'll get a few Modenas by the end of the week and cut you in on some of the profits when i sell them since you gave me the idea. I dont care what you do on the highway, if you wreck and wrap your embarassment to German engineering around a telephone pole its not going to affect me one bit. You may want to search through here though and read the story by a volunteer fireman who had to tend to a mother and her dying children in their minivan after they were sideswiped by a ricer in a highway race. Its quite sobering.However, your idiocy on the forums claiming to beat an M3 is just amusing. My guess is that he was willing to push it in a congested area because he was racing a gainst a formidable adversary (Read: COBRA) and decided to back off after he won that one and wonder why in the world MB shaped the back of your car they way they did maybe he was taking solice in the idea that BMW isnt the one one that is screwing up their styling these days. As for falling asleep in class, you may be right there...seeing as how im up late studying for a Chinese Politics exam right now (guess that makes me a socialist hippie, who voted straight ticket Republican in '04). You know how voting goes, its a pretty good indicator of one's political ideology. Oh crap you dont, you're in high school. Well, its pretty cool, and midterm exams suck...something you dont know anything about yet, but my break's over, back to work.
Actually if you look at the stock spec of the CLK320 and the C230K SC from 2002, you have a whole whopping 23 more Hp and the exact same 0-60 times! The CLK is heavier and geared diferently, not to mention an automatic! According to MBUSA they have identical 0-60 times of 7.2 seconds. Now yeah the V-6 may pull better and may just get to 60 a hair quicker due to driver and all but you will in no way blow him away. You just managed to spend almost $20K more for the same type vehicle with a trunk instead of a hatch! Crap they even look the same if you have the current body style from the front. Now he has a pulley on his C230 and most likely pushing more power than the 320 does since the ASP pulley got about an extra 25 ponies plus what ever is gained due to outside temp and intercooler temps. And he still did not spend that extra $20K to get to the same power levels as the CLK320 has. Sorry to burst your bubble here but the CLK320 was the lowest priced cheapest coupe in MB's line-up before the C Coupes came out! Now of course once the CLK gets the 350 engine it will be a diferent story!

Edit: King he never once stated he beat the M3. He even stated that he was not sure why he was lagging behind. More like two people screwing around than a kill actually!

Hey, thanks for your quasi-respectable tone in your response. I know that the 320 isnt a whole lot quicker because it is heavy, that wasnt ever really the issue. If it were the issue though i would only point out that a w209 2002 CLK is heavier than a w208 clk but has the same engine. The times you're looking at (7.2) are for a 2002, the 98 (my year) is around 6.8. My only performance mod is a set of UD pulleys that dyno giving 10 more hp (minimal gain), so that is about 225 from my car which is quicker than an 02 to start with. Also, Beddywetty seems to have removed his boost pulley according to a post he made back in september (See my previous post), thats why i was mentioning not talking smack to people with bigger engines. I should have clarified that i wasnt referring only to MY bigger engine but also a 3.0L 330Ci, 3.2L M3, or a 5.0L SL .
I wasnt going to post on here again today but i had left the window open and saw your post and it seemed sensible enough (having been the FIRST of this entire thread to use numbers instead of ad-hominem insults) that i wanted to give you a sensible reply. As for my car costing more, i bought it used and didnt even spend $20k on it total. Enjoy your C230 and sorry if i pissed you or other reasonable 230 drivers off by my compents to Beddywetty, and be assured that if there were a CLK 320 driver on here claiming to beat or even be on par with an SL or M3, i'd be all over him too.

all it takes is a few people to make us C-Class drivers look like *******s. No wonder we are thought of as young immature wanna bes. Im still proud to drive a C240 benz, and i met alot of people at the Meet that are proud to be fellow C-Class owners too. We know our places, and that is 130 and below.

No problem. Since MB discontinued the Coupe in the states I may have to go CLK next, or maybe even BMW! I just happen to like and use the Hatchback quite often! I have my 190E for a closed trunk!!!!

Lowest of the low, cost wise yes. HP/$, far from. Fun factor/$ far from. It's the imperialist mentality of the "upper" model owners, that gets us defensive. It's obsurd. I wanted a CLK 320 til I test drove one. Then I tried the CLK 430, no better. My requirements were simply 2 door rear wheel drive 4/5 seater, if it was quicker that's a bonus.

It is only in the states you could expect to see this "my d!ck is bigger than yours" because I paid more for my car. My opinion, your CLK is far from better than the C-Coupe. I drove both '02 models before my purchase. The coupe is *IMHO better 10x a better purchase than the CLK. The W209 is different and better than the W208.

King, FYI, the older M-Coupe and non-turbo porsches could not pull away from me on the straights at the track, nor could the 330ic. Granted, I have lwt wheels, stud/lugs, a pulley and suspension mods that help me exit corners faster, they could not shake me on a 3.27 mile course with 3 large straights. The C32 AMG smoked me by at least 10-15 car lengths.

To call the C-Coupe the lowest of low whilst MB is selling C240s and C/CLK 320s is a joke. Even better is that the CLK is available in the CLK-180 form outsides the states. How could you call it low? It's a joke and all your thoughts of superiority are a farse.

EDIT- King- Oh king... Did you know your car wasn't even designed OR built by Mercedes Benz? Sorry, I just read back to you calling the coupe a disgrace to german engineering. The irony is that the coupe is much more of a statement of engineering accomplishment than your CLK... No trunk, more rigid, head on impact, there is a small metal tab that redirects the energy away from the cabin, small things I deam valuable... The pano roof is worth a thousand words... 1st year sold in the states, only year with the M111 motor. Not only is my car faster, it's specifically better engineered, it's also more rare and more likely to increase in value as a classic or collectible.
