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

Just the different generations of C-class. W204 = MY08-MY15 W205 = MY16+

Well don't add more numbers and letters, that just makes it more confusing.

The bayside blue M5 always looked weird to me when that video first went live... doesn't belong on a BMW :(

TECHNICALLY the W204 was a 6.2L. Soooooooooo yeah.

 

Still not as bad as BMW with naming.

W204 Sedan > W205 Coupe > W204 Coupe > W205 Sedan.

SLS AMG > AMG GT

W201 is still the greatest.

It would have windows and lights.. And everything else to make it road legal

But the exterior would be as close to that as possible + Two big extra lights in the front^^

Not usually a problem unless there are some really sharp edges. Depends on the cop in some cases though

On cars that are more than 30 years old the rules are a bit more relaxed as well.

 

Either way the car would be more of a weekend car

I seriously have to wonder if that one used dealership here has the two 65-66 coupes for sale. I really wish they did and I had the money to nab one. Would clean it up and daily the hell out of it.
