At an undisclosed time and location: Business guy in an Mercedes sl500 got passed by a certain turbo d-series ninja full sleep style in cruising traffic. Couple of screwballs bunch up in the passing lanes, sl500 tries to get a jump and cut off the now alert ninja. Full side by side eye-contact grocery getter 4th gear walking pwnage ensues! Business guy shocked and amazed signals the thumb up.
I don't know why, but it sure is fun beating overpriced underpowered cars. Not saying I wouldn't nut myself to own one....
