The 330ci just looks cute. 225hp/150 something tq tops. Ate one the other night from a slow roll. Runs strong in second and third gear, though. He had me by a bumper until he upshifted to third. After that I walked away from him. He was so embarrassed he shut all the way down and commenced to cruising under the speed limit. I guess his little feelings were hurt that he couldn't beat my old ass Acura in his hot waxed white Bimmer.

actually 235hp and 220 lb/ft torque and that extra gear made it a pretty good race

had a lil run in with a stock g37 coupe auto yesterday. he was driving like a nut on the highway so i followed him too. i tried to see if i cud catch him at a light after the highway. and then we came close to this one red light and when we just about to stop it turns green so at about 10mph so i just floored it and rite wen he saw dat he floored it too i got about 2 cars ahead but he cudnt catch up to me for some reason the lead stayed the same. i really thought hed catch up to me and pass me. and after about 70mph i cut it but this guy kept going and flew by me and he did his lil ricer fly by

I was racing at the track a couple weeks ago and was running faster times than this one 370z that was there

Sounds like another bs story to me.

Consider yourselves road kings of sorts. There are very few cars in the CL-S' class, even in the 2011 line-up, that can flat out beat a stock 02 Acura CL-S whether manual or automatic. The mere fact that we can sit here and talk about beating a 2011 E class Mercedes Benz and an 06' BMW with an 02' speaks volumes--I don't give a damn what people say about the Germans being rear wheel drive. An old 02' CL-S can still beat almost every entry level vehicle that the Germans can put out. We all know Honda/Acura has the technology to surpass the Germans. They just don't want to abandon their traditional automotive strategies in order to do so. If you know otherwise, then say so.

im not gonna lie the cl-s is in a class of its own has a shit load of hp can run out a ton of cars its fucking sick it bums me out though cause in my area atleast all the cl and tl type s cars are driven by old people you dont see to many hooked up around here

You saw the stock numbers for the Saab. A CL-S would need substantial mods to beat the numbers the Saab is producing. If you're modded with a turbo, and/ or nitrous and/or a supercharger, larger heads etc. that's one thing. But if you're running around in a mostly stock CL-S with a couple bolt-ons like an intake or exhaust or a lighter flywheel and expect to beat a Saab 9-3 Aero, whether it's stock or modded, you're not going to win.

What year SAAB are we talking about?
The 07 9-3 Aeros have 250/258 and are 3570lbs in the auto and 3210 in the manual (huge difference, not sure if thats accurate).
The 08 (newest gen) has 255/258 and are 3285 (auto) or 3175 (manual).
The 09 had 280/262 and was the same weight as the previous year.
For 2010 they got rid of the V6 engine, and the Aeros have 210/221.
The higher 280/295 cars that you mentioned is the Turbo X which was pretty beastly but only about 600 of them made it to our shores.
Either way, he lost.

He never said anything about the year of the car. But you have to estimate that even with the weakest 07' Aero, if the guy had an oversized aftermarket turbo and exhaust--not to mention whatever other mods the dude may have had--he was probably pushing 09' specs or higher.

In October 1986 the Saab Long Run took place. Three standard Saab 9000 Turbos set 2 world records and 21 international records at the Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Alabama, USA. 100,000 km (62,137 miles) were covered with an average speed of 213.299 km/h (132.537 mph) and 50,000 miles (80,467 km) with an average speed of 213.686 km/h (132.778 mph).
They even had their own Pro Saab series back in the 80's, which featured open wheel, indy car-like body styles powered by normally aspirated turbocharged V6 engines. The only mods was the emissions was taken off and the boost was increased. Anybody that bothers to mod a Saab knows what the hell they have and know what to do with it.

I classify SAAB in the same category as Volvo. Mostly tame cars in stock form but they have tons of potential. Id love an old turbo brick though.

Saab is a serious automobile manufacturer, particularly, before GM gained ownership, that has been largely overlooked by the mainstream. I've never really been a Saab fan--the body styles they dreamed up for their production cars in the 80's were horrendous--but I've always had respect for their engine building technology:

Was that a typo? Or am I missing something? Oh wait, are you saying they took a engine that was not designed for a turbo and put a turbo on it?
Neat fact there anyways. I saw a very nice Viggen for sale awhile back. I just did not know to much about it. Slick looking though.
