the wrx took the jump and the srt-4 still blew past him, even w/ passengers in the back seat

the talon stayed with the srt-4 but the neon had him too.

between the srt-4's, 350z's etc. out there, i'm gonna have to get nitrous to keep from being embarrassed :o

the vid still works, was a roll from 40 to 125 and the srt was at least 4 cars ahead at the end, wrx started with 3/4-1car lead, neon was hauling past after that. srt had some big guys in the car- 3passengers, wrx had 3 passengers also. verdict: car lives up to the hype

It'll be time for a trade in in the next few years Something faster will be out then anyway. But in the mean time spray away!

I'm not worried. Why? Because our car isn't mean to be a performance car. It's a luxury car with a "sporty" edge to it. Anyone aside from maybe mattg, all_motor, zoot, and type_r, who is "worried" or intimidated by a sport compact has the wrong mindset.

Shit, I'll be "worried" when I own a sport compact. In fact maybe if the money is right to get a second car, I'll buy an old Civic and drop in a K-series motor like all_motor2000 was talking about just to have a sleeper that can rape a SRT-4.

And then of course a sticker for the back of the CLS that says "My other car is a Civic" so I get strange looks.

Yeah right, who would ruin a CLS with bumper stickers.

I think the CLS can take the WRX from a roll. It's only really strong at launch because of the AWD
