German cars suck to maintain. A part breaks and you spend $500 on parts and the engineers put things together in a manner which makes you scratch your head. I hate working on German cars.

But, OP, you should kill him. Especially if you have any mods. Plus, you'll look better while you do. I hate the look of the C230.

My Bose system in my C-class was not nearly as potent or clear as my G is, so maybe something was damaged that I didn't know about, but from my experience, I've thought the G is better.

As far as class lineup - yes, technically the G was meant to match up against the 3 series, C class, etc, but check the wheel-base, overall car size, and engine. They match up a lot more with the next level up. With exception of the creation of the 335, M, and AMG, no 3 series/C-class come close in power to the base model G. The base 5 series and base E class hits closer to the power of the G. That's all I'm saying with regard to that.

I ironically test drove this before getting my G35x.

The power is underwhelming compared to the G.

lt1s maybe. unless your car is super modified, you wont stay close to an almost stock ls1 trans am.

Plenty of 11 second LT1's, LS1's and Mustangs at the track....all completely streetable.

Of course, i've also seen plenty stuck high in the 14's as well.

Going to a cheap track will run you anywhere from 40-90 bucks Thats half the price of a speeding ticket going 6% over! This is not targeting you OP im 22 and I have well over enough tickets and I wasnt even trying to race! Our cars but down and Im proud of em but cops know this as well!
