I was wondering which car handles better? I know the WRX's AWD gives it more advantage over the CLK in harsh road conditions but how does the CLK500 compare to the WRX on track?

 

i haven't read any reviews on the CLK 500, but in terms of acceleration the wrx is better. the mercedes is a mammoth. it weighs 3900 lbs. but the power to weight ratio is better. it edges out the wrx by 1. - 12.83 lbs per hp versus the wrx which is 13.83. keep in mind that the CLK has a v-8 and that it will have top end supremacy.

out of curiosity why are u comparing a luxury oriented car versus a wrx?

Oh my parents were going to give me their CLK and my sister would take my WRX. I just wanted to know which car was better in terms of handling on a track. I still love my WRX. =D

 

You lucky SOB. Pimp ride.



:banana:

 

LOL! I still like the WRX more though... I like the buggy eyes. =P The AWD is nice too...

 

hmmm, pimp the benz, or a car that no chick has ever heard of..........that is a tuffy

 

^^ yup

e.g.
girl comes up to you in your wrx. . . "ooo nice ride... is that a honda?"
girl comes up to you in your benz... "ooo nice ride...i love mercedes"

"ooo nice ride... is that a honda?" <<<that will bruise your ego for a good while. Then again, I'd be impressed by a girl who would choose the Subaru over a Benz based on performance knowledge. Basically, car ****** are a turnoff......unless, of course, you drive a Type R......
