I was going to get on to IH 37 going to san antonio I was driving the wifes toyota up ahead was a plum colored 240 D . The wifes reaction was theres the same car as yours you might want to switch lanes and go around it . So I switched lanes . ( because spouses are always right ) Heres where the unbeleivable part happens the mercedes starts picking up speed and stays beside me ! What the ...... so I start to accelerate move over one more lane look in the mirror and theres a mercedes badge on my rear bumper. By now me and the wife are laughing uncontrollably I look at the speedometer and were going 70 I move over and the mercedes blows past me .

How is this possible its a 240 D for god sakes !!! I try to keep up but before long you can barely see the tail lights. No smoke either ! Possibly rebadged ? Gas engine swap ??

If your a member and read this please explain whats going on under the hood . That car sure exceeded my expectations. Good shape as well .
