Did you expect less from a mercedes.

>>17640207
So, what godtier muh powa cars are you looking at OP?

Wait till you try a motorcycle

What's the point of high horsepower cars in the US though? 99% of places are capped at 65mph and you actually get tickets for going even 75mph

>>17640207
Stop listening to fucking weebs. Especially if there isn't a "touge" where you live. If for whatever reason you do encounter a hairpin turn then you can powerslide around if your car makes enough power, American bootleggers did it way before the Japanese thought to.

>>17640590
This on a 1000cc by the time you realize your going 140mph it's just amazing

>>17640207
>Why did I choose handling over power? This is way better
because you feel for the poorfag meme

>>17640611
Good point outside of exceptions like that 85 mph highway in Texas you won't be going 80 so fair enough.

>>17640611
thistbqhwyf and going to open track days every weekend is expensive and time consuming and dodging cones in empty parking lots is gay.

>steps on the gas, vrooom!!!
>gets to 60mph and the car crawls the rest of the way to 100mph.

>>17640922
better yet stop being a poorfag and get an s1000rr and feel true speed

>>17640966
I would rather stop being very poor and get a H2R the dick and the balls.

why not tesla?

My god, maybe the memes were right.

Either way, anon, you can do the same fucking thing with a WRX that has similar power levels - it does 0-60 stock in like 4.7s or some shit.

The problem here is that you fell for the FWD hot hatch meme. A 3000lb Civic Type-R can barely make it into the 5 second range with a limited slip diff and 300hp.

>>17640207
>have beginner bike, does 0-60mph in 3.5s
>do some pulls in 2nd gear, feel powerspike when it revs above 10k rpm
>its fun but get used to it pretty fast
>meanwhile going fast in corners and working on getting the knee down is exciting and stays exciting
>similar experience when getting pressed in the the side wall of the seat in my slow car

My explanation of handling > power
Maybe you don't have twisties around to utilize the handling

You can buy a good condition E55 AMG for $10k-$15K and it will do 4.5 seconds 0-60

Performance is cheap as fuck.

>>17640611
This.

>Have relatively fast car.
>Can't enjoy it because it gets up to speed so quickly.
>Can't enjoy accelerating because it's already over.


really activates the almonds.

>>17641297
You do realize that even beginner bikes are faster than 90% of cars posted here?

Of course, I wanted to point out that even a cheap entry-level bike can do 0-60 faster than most cars. Illiterate /o/tists might think I'm a tryhard on muh turbobusa
