CL230 Kompressor vs 88 GTA
I'm cruising down 5 (long stretch of 2 lane divided highway in Cali) doing 75-80mph when I see something coming on strong in my rearview. I look ahead and in the right lane is a truck, so this guy pulls up and goes to pass on the right but gets blocked by the truck, so he pulls back behind me, then moves back ove rto the right lane after we pass truck. He jumps on it and is pulling up to my side when I decide to gun it, he stayed pretty even until about 100 then I was slowly pulling away I put a few car lengths on him between 100-115 then I cut out and he did the fly by I caught bakc up to his tail just so I could read what he was driving. It was a CL230 Kompressor, mercedes little supercharged I4.

We had an '03 SL500 at the shop (boss's car) and he was nice enough to let me take it down the road for an alignment. He told me it would surprise me for being an old man's car.

Got on the road and let er rip and it's like driving a brick, I mean this thing was solid. Put me in my seat and held me there til about 85. Whatta ride!

Watch out for those too.
