Hmmm. Starting to get interesting. Since I dont know much about rice rockets I cant say which I think will win. But we needs vids when you guys decide to do it. And put some money on it if you're serious. Lol. I just want this to happen. No fun in talking trash if it never happens right?

I'll admit for times below 11.5,you will spend some cash but not compared to my beloved AMG's.
That was my only point.
However now Jody will have to put it where it counts,on the road and we will see what's what when the race is over. I'm also willing to share receipt purchases for each car when it's all said and done.

I was being very general since you brought up the "chic car comment".
I am very happily married as well as you know. So the car chic thing would not personnally apply here and never has since it was brought and we both personnally know how Dominican women are

Don't get me wrong,I love your car. But kill the talk, you have to do it on the gravel. Perhaps after the 1/4 mile or Mexico you would like to do it at E-town on the roadrace track of even lime rock or pocono one day. All in fun and perhaps for $$$$$$$$$$$$$.
As to whether I could afford to buy a 65,you would never know that as my priorities are obviously different than yours. If you choose to buy car(frankenstein W210 disaster) after car(C32) after car(E55) after car(CL65),especially since the first W210 disaster you owned ,that's all well and good and certainly your perogative as we see where you like to spend you cash. Been there done that bro. By the way Kudos to ya for having such a nice selection of auto's. Just stop destroying them.

By the way when one uses the the term "slush box",they mean automatic,my ****box is "manual".
Enuff talk,put in all your cooling aparatus(i) and let's just do this!!

Same here carl no disrespect to your wife or you
...I am done talking, just let me know when we gonna do it in mexico or E-town which I prefer. In terms of money I don't bet, sorry that goes agaisn't everything I believe, we do this for bragging rights and to show you this boat will get you into the 10's. By the way only car i destroyed was the E55 W211 in a stupid road accident, all the others just got bored of. After all those cars you still call me a novice huh...how many must I have over the 6-7 years, trust me I climbed the ladder. E-class, C-class, Japanesse-, back to E-Class and finally the lovely CL. They are not my only priority, I have got many others.
No worries- The 65 will surprise you and will be even able to show you my receipt...

I don't get this argument about 11 sec AMG requiring a lot of upgrades.. A stock SL600 can dip into the 11s and certainly any 65 can run 11s at 120+ stock all day long. Of course an SL65 is the price of about 6 or 7 STIs. A forum member has a CL600 with a some upgrades running in the 10s already without juice.

I tried explaining this to Project C55 but I guess the conversation derailed into non productive comments.
I will try explaining to him when I run 10's with a simple ECU tune...

everyone is entitled to their own opinions.
mine is simply 95 percent of japanese cars suck. they may be reliable but they dont offer any styling or performance without tuning. there are a couple exceptions.
with an EVO or an STI, i think you attract the young crowd, street racers, fast and the furious wannabees. IMO you will never be taken seriously as a mature successful adult driving a car with a ginormous wing.
fast may be fast but there are other things out there than straight line speed.
for example, i could buy a foxbody mustang for 3k, spend about 3k for intake, exhaust, cams, drag radials, and a new rear end/diff, and i would be running 11s. however, at the end of the day, id still be driving a classess POS thats only fast in a straight line and tops out around 130.
my point is, different strokes for different folks, but i just dont think japanese cars are classy, regrdless of how fast they are. maybe lexus/infinitis larger touring sedans, but thats about it.

I won't bash Japanese cars...or any other country's cars for that matter. I think it is a bit ridiculous to compare a CL/E to an EVO or WRX or any other Japanese car. The fact of the matter is that a CL65 will put down 500hp+ to the wheels without modifications. Yes it costs more....but you also get a number of things with the car that has nothing to do with straightline perfomance including...a very heavy hydraulic dampening suspension (ABC), over a hundred pounds of sound deadening material, heated/cooled massage seats for driver and front passenger, full size spare tire (as I was grateful for last week), electric rear sun-shade, auto closing doors/trunk, 15.4" front and 13.8" rear brakes, double paned glass all around....etc. My point is this...if you wanted to "ruin" the luxurious nature of the CL65...it will run 9's on drag radials...without a dollar spent....just through a weight reduction program.... ok maybe an exaggeration...but how many lbs would you need to chuck off of the 4,600+lbs of girth....with 500+rwhp....and 600+rwTq....to get into the 9's...when the fully laden car will run high 11's...low 12's?

My buddy and I were riding around in his K4 E55 yesterday, just minding our own business.
Along side of us comes this young kid driving in a brand new WRX STI, still had the paper temp plate.
He comes up along side of us, and gets our attention.
Then he starts weaving thru traffic, and we follow him for a little ways, and then the traffic cleared up, and he was in the left lane, and we were to his right.
We were going about 70.
Then the kid hits it, and we weren't quite sure that he hit it.. But, anyway, my buddy just kept along side of him up to about 110 or so, then we realize that he was on it as much as he had, so my buddy down shifted and hammered it.
We pulled him bad.
At 150 we had him by about 4 lengths.
Added a little excitement to an otherwise mundane day...
