On the way to work this morning I am casually strolling at my usual 75-80mph. The highway intersects with another highway and I see a silver car streak across to the speeding lane behind me. I wasnt sure what it was at first, but as it crept up closer I could tell it was a Merc. Hes tailing me for awhile, but then it happens... we get hungup behind some asshat in the speeding lane who finally decided to merge over. By this time the Merc was on my ass and I drop it into 3rd from around 70... I pop out a few cars and I could tell he was rolling it too. I will say one thing... it seemed to take him until 110 to roll up on me but when he did... he was on my ass like white on rice. I know when i finally could move over a lane we were doing 135+ and he blew by me like a rampaging bull. A few minutes later I get back up on him and was wondering what kind of AMG it was... i read the badge and it was a C32, I never knew they made a C32 AMG but obviously they do. I pull beside him and he looks over and I give him a thumbs up and we both start laughing... I point at his car and nod my head and thats the end of the story.

and they are supercharged. Fast little car.

 

Gotta love the 3.2L SC'ed V6 engine. With a few simple upgrades you are looking at 400 hp.

 

Nice encounter with a worthy car.

 

Yup, for about $700 you can bring it up to 400hp. Many SLK 32 owners have been doing this for a while now...

 

Wicked little crittah. . .

 

I test drove a C55 Amg before I bought my S2k, All I'll say is from a stand still it's an awsome tire smoke show but from a 30 punch you had better have both eyes on the road because you will be very soon haulin some major asss, I can only imagine what a 400 hp C32 would do!
