C4S vs. E55

I'm waiting for dmoney to PM me to set up a time and place for his C4S to show my E55 the Porsche's taillights. I wonder if I have time to make a sandwich?
I will admit the W211 E55 isn't the best handling car, but I had been a loyal BMW fan for many, many years and was won over by the Mongo torque (500+ ft-lbs from 2,000 RPM to redlne all day long). This is about the torque delivered by a TT in overboost, but that's only for 10 seconds. A TT is one of the few cars around that will walk my E55 in a straight line - but I've got a nice C2S and a TT coming for the twisties. Still, for a 5 passenger 4-door sedan that you can drive to work and get groceries, it is an impressive piece of machinery - and MB quit building the blower motors :>(

why is this even posted here, you have a C4S997 theres a 997 forum for you...
dmoney thinks he has a turbo i believe... dmoney did you slap a turbo badge on your car therefore giving you turbo speed allowing you to "walk" an E55 which does a traps near 120 and does it in the low 12's... is that how this was done and how you "walked" and M5 and how you think you can "walk" a F430 and a gallardo... is this how dmoney... is this how?

. May god be with you in this very difficult time...oh and DAVE I would never put a fake *** badge on my car, but the fact that you thought about it is making me wonder if you have one, probably do since your car is now very outdated...good luck buddy.

I wonder if dmoney would put his pink slip on the line. Hmmm?

Dude if my p-car had 500 ponies I sure would, you bet your sweet bippy...
, but I talking about a 355 h.p. car taking down a 476 h.p. car and a 500 h.p. car, if it's possible, even you would be impressed alex.

You've argued for 5 pages that your 355 hp car beat two 500 hp beasts. Since you are so sure and convinced that it is possible (since you've done it 
), why not? You've beat them before, why doubt yourself now?
Look at it like this, win both cars, sell them both and retire to Miami from your legendary street-racing days. Your grandkids would be proud.

dmoney - how about an M6 instead of an M5? My nephew with the Noble M12 GTO-3R also has a new M6 - I'm sure he'd give 'em both a run to see your rocket ship C4S. He's in the OC too - so just let us know when.

You should just garage your car until a real threat comes around - which will probably never happen in our lifetime.

OK everyone I'm sorry I listed this question on the 997 turbo forum by accident, it seems to have pissed off 996TTDave and upset him, my deepest apologies go out to him and his family. May god be with you in this very difficult time...oh and DAVE I would never put a fake *** badge on my car, but the fact that you thought about it is making me wonder if you have one, probably do since your car is now very outdated...good luck buddy.

you are one sorry dude...
