Where's Glenn when we need him?

I've now been able to listen to the audio (only had the video before) and ir appears that the coupe is only the C200 Kompressor rather than the C32 AMG Coupe which has not yet arrived here in the US -- have corrected the first post.

Though I personally doubt that any street driven corvette could EVER live up to that comparo even with the handicap the fact of the matter is that we will never actually see this proven on the track. So what's the point of arguing. We just all need to grow up and accept the fact that Glens c5 wouldn't win.

In other words, Glenn says he can outrun a C200 Kompressor (the bottom line C class car with a supercharged 4-banger, which replaced the A-class used in the prior F1 video) by more than the distance by which the F1 beat the C200 (i.e., Glenn would make up the margin between the C200 and the F1).

Blah blah blah....yet another idiotic post from our friend...our pal...Glen...with his "holy c5"... The fact that you would even suggest your ability to stay ahead of the F1 driven by one of the best drivers in the world further accentuates your moronic thought process (THAT is something a 4 year old can understand). But hey...let me go back into my corner of stupidity here because Glen is bringing his holy c5 to the table. You my friend are the true dunce and in addition, if the race were ever possible, a homeless dunce.
