Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

I also got back from a track day, the problem is that I'm not home ATM to share the pics and videos :/

This was a fun day :P Me and my brother on his MB SLK 200, two other friends on a Fiat 600D and another 2 on an Opel Kadett cruising around the town, doing some revs and honking some horns :lol:

It was :lol:

We did not enter the race though. 45€ for like an hour :/ and loads of petrol and rubber

On the end, the owner of a 997 GT3 went nuts and decided to do some donuts almost hitting the rails xD

I can't believe how many car enthusiasts live in the Bay Area. I've been wanting to live there for a while now and work for Yahoo while i'm at it.

Hey car guys, another question, quite similar to the last one. What would be the equivalent car for BMW and AUDI of a E class Mercedes and CLS class Mercedes? AUDI, Mercedes and BMW are my top 3 choices for a new luxury car.

I think a 5 series, but I think a CLS is more fullsize, while a 5 series is midsize, so a 7 series would be comparable to a CLS.

BMW's equivalent of the E-class is the 5-series, and probably the 6-series Gran Coupe for the CLS.  Audi's A7 and S7 are the equivalent of the E and CLS.

I thought the A6 would have been the E class equivalent.
