Meredes 430 ate my arse up!

Any way, I was rolling down 75 Central and this guy pulls up on me in ane 430 (i Think). We got at it from about and he eats my ass for lunch...

THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO TO THIS 4 DOOR SEDAN.

We went at it like 3 or 4 times(from a rolling start of 60ish, each time he chewed my ass up.

the mercedes exits and up comes some freak in an intrgra. Seeing as though I need to gain my pride back, I chew HIS as up..l finally hit personel top speed of 140 mph in my CLS (AWWWW YEAH). It was awesome.

Still can't believe how that 4 door sedan pulled off on my ass so horribly..

WOW Those fuckers are fast:'(

yeah 430s are faster than our cars. i drove an e430 sport for 2 weeks over the summer and i know for sure. those cars are geared to be fast at higher speeds, so accelerating from 60, you'd have a a hard time beating one.

I'm on the North side... I was on the way to Lower Greenville when I raced that 430. I mainly patrol around in Plano. How about you?

Those 430s are quick up top however you'll beat it from 0-60 for sure. Damn V8 torque.

No replacement for displacement.
