    benz

    I was coming home from work this mourning and I noticed, in my rear view mirror, that this mercedes was folloing my every move. So I played a bit of cat and mouse with it for a good couple of blocks. I cut through a group of cars with the benz on my heels and we ended of if the front two lines two lights befor the freeway. The light turned green and we both dumped the clutch. We went speeding off side by side. The next light happened to stay green so we continued to race side by side, waiting to shift till redline. By the time we hit the freeway we were doing well over a hundred. The funny thing is HE had to back off the throttle in order to get behind me due to merging lanes. Just to let you know, yes he was trying to race becuase I looked in the rear view mirror and he was livid. Gave me the bird and everything. Also FYI it was a c320.
    Too bad I have AWD and you don't!

          it might not have been stick, mercedes isn't putting manual trannies in many cars anymore, do you know if it was or not for sure?

            Actually, the C-class is now available with a stick, as are those little CLK convertibles.

            *edit* never mind, I thought you said no manuals in ANY cars. If I could only learn to read...

              lol, yeah, they do have some, but they're afraid of them or something, maybe it's because BMW does it so much better. . .

                  hahaha, this is true

                  edit: thought of something they didn't do so well: the SMG on the Z4, MT says it's the gearbox from hell

                      Uh ok? Care to elaborate? Like which model, there are probably 5 or 6 M-B kompressors

                        mercedes dont make sticks. at all. maybe manumatic. but no clutch. not even the clk's. i doubt they ever did make manuals either. my dad has a 94 E class 320, but i think his car and mine are equal in tq/weight ratio. i might even be able to take him.

                            i can see him maybe taking a c230 or c240 but not a C320 and yeah benz still makes manual trans for some of their cars. i hate the auto trans in my benz alwas starts off from 2nd gear.
                            straight roads are for fast cars, Turns and Curves are for fast drivers

                              By golly, you're right. Even the 1886 Patent Motorwagen had an overdrive automatic, power windows, and a navigation system.

                              There has never been a time when Mercedes didn't make a manual transmission, clutch and all. For a few years they didn't offer sticks in the US, but they're back now.
