Oh god you went and hit my favorite subject
I posted this link a while back, but here it is again

The benz has also done pavement doughnuts (this is a 617 turbo)
I went to park in a parking spot one night at my favorite school lot and in the process of parking did a 360 before setting her right inbetween the lines.
Little did I know there was a eldery lady (the janitor) in her car in the dark that got my licence plate and persumeably called the police. I gave her a neighborly wave, checked my police scanner, and went out playing with my friend in the mud.
If you want to talk offroading, burnouts, gravel driving, etc. my car has done it. I usually tow a friend of mine out of the stuck spots. The trusty benz and non snappy throttle helps when trying to creep out.
Also, drove this car up a 35 degree muddly incline (maybe there is a picture?) with ease...no bottoming out.
I gained the respect of some fellow students and mercedes moved up the "offroad able car" list for them a bit.
The unhappy people?
The police
The neighbors (been followed for miles by one)
My rear transaxle
The grass
All in all, these cars are amazing, and FUN!
(nothing on that website is 'real' so don't get angry with me...I am just a teenager....remember?)
