3.2 CL S v.s. C230 kompressor
What the hell - last Tuesday I'm taking a stroll down the highway. I'm approaching a slow 18-wheeler, so I'm about to perform a lane change when this punk in a silver C230 sport coupe is just hovering right next to my drivers side door. He's giving me this look like: "Come on and gun it." I didn't take that bait so I waited for the little punk to pass me by so I could safely make the lane change.
I don't jump just because some punk is grinning at me. So I pull behind him and tailgate his ass to see what he's going to do. He floors it and takes off. I could estimate from his take off that I could eat his lunch so I let him get about two car lengths ahead of me before I dropped it into 3rd. As hard as he's darting between cars I let him perform his little stunts then I swallow up road between me and him STILL not hitting quite the top of 3rd yet. At one point he zig zagged through three cars - I gunned over to the passing lane and was waiting for him in the adjacent lane when he finished his stunt. The kid was stunned. Finally the traffic clears up for a stretch and I walk away from him. Why this little punk tried to play with me I don't know.

I wasn't angry with the little twirp. I was actually laughing the whole time. Mercedes should be ashamed of themselves for taking the 1.8 liter engine out of a 1985 Volkswagon Scirocco and putting it in a late model car - supercharged or not.

Actually, I do commend MB for offering 4 different engine option for the C-Class: 2.5L V6 (201hp 
) , 3.0L V6 (228hp 
), 3.5L V6 (268hp 
) and a 5.5L V8 (367hp 
).
That said, the C-class does nothing for me. Good kill.

2.5L V6 = 1st Car for your spoiled kid
3.0L V6 = For the wife
3.5L V6 = I got a little money but not AMG status yet
5.5L V8 = I'm the man and I know what I bought.
