Ok I raced and lost. Well kind of, off the line the Honda took me and from a rolling start, at 40mph. But on the highway I pulled on him above 90. It was fun and my friend was impressed by the MB it has 200k more miles on it than the Accord and I out braked and out handled him, thanks to my sticky Yoko's. All good fun, future races: 300SDL vs. 1999 E300D; 1995 S600 vs. any Caddy or Vett, that wants to go.
Honda weighs far less, doesn't surpise me, but then, does it really matter who crosses the finish line first?


I know that honda is NOT as comfortible as that SDL is.
