SLK 230 Kompressor Kill

This morning I was on my way to work and I knew that this
certain light turns red if you don't get there in a certain amt of time... so i was turning this corner with a SLK 230 Kompressor in front of me...

I floored it so that i could pass him and make the light but next thing you know the guy thought I was racing him... so he gunned it too... I was already in SS so i was pullin up to a car length... when I made the mistake of shifting too early out of 3rd... the car just sat there... felt like i was barely accelerating anymore...

The SLK started to creep but my car was strong enough to recover from the mistake... I cut it after a certain mph and he kept going.. it was well over and I made the light I wanted to make.. which is usually cop infested..

To be honest I thought I would just walk away from him.. but he hung there a bit... surprised...

Thumbs up

He was probably able to hang b/c his car is so light compared to yours. I don't have the time nor patience to search the web for HP and weight figures, but I'm sure the HP per pound is pretty close to the TL-S'. It's only a 4-cylinder, but the Kompressors are pretty quick so I'd have to say good kill!!

Sexy gal

Well I had race with this girl, she was driving SLK 230 Kompressor, and she was fine and sexy looking, probably rich with channel sunglasses on and age around 24. Well I looked at her and saying "Hi". And We raced for half mile, she wants to kill my TypeS but she couldn't, I was 5 car infront of her. And we stopped at signal and traffic is getting in front of the stop light. Well, I know she wants to beat me and she driven hard, but I was still infront of her. Later on she kept following me, because she wants to get out of the traffic. I don't think SLK 230 Kompressor is fast but still fast car and you will enjoy the luxury sports coupe ride. And I'm sure handling is much better but it is a solid car. Anyway I wanna see more girls to ride sports cars!!!!
When you have nice car you will compete with others.

The V6 SLK 320 would be more suitable competition, w/215hp, it runs 0-60 in 6.6.

We are in the right place to see that.... lots o 'lil honies with $$$ and buy "fast" cars... Sometimes, they try to get a lil froggy with their cars.... have to put them in their place. Had a nice lil race with a black 330xi going west on Route 7. She gunned it from one light and had to stop at another.... caught up with her and showed her what was up in my TL-S.... After moving through half of 3rd gear... she was already over a car length behind..... it was fun. I wish I could've seen what she really looked like.... her car was tinted so I didn't get a good view.....

*sigh*

Hey man, no regrets. It's much better leaving you off with a wild fantasy than to find out the driver was trully a shemale. Similar thing happened with me when my friend was test driving my car and when we pulled up next to her to check her out he ended up gunning it. (She had nice hair though) lol
