Dealerships are funny. A reply from a high horse.

Speaking of, the CL65 could make even more power - they raised the boost a few PSI and make 7xx horsepower and 850 lb./ft of torque, but not even AMG trannys could take it!!!

> It is sad and I see it everyday!  The really amazing part is how much salespeople like that make.  Some times I wonder if they were trained that a good lie is that best way to cover up for lack of knowledge.  Thinking of twin turbos, I just finished reading about the CL65 AMG  604 hp@4800 rpm, 738 lb-ft@2000 rpm!!!!!

Some old guy smoking a cigarette comes over.  I tell him that it's not worth it vs. the SRT-4.  He tells me it's alot more car than a SRT-4.  I dunno about *alot* more, but fair enough.  Then he tells me it's got twin turbos, racing suspension, racing seats, a race roll cage, etc.  So I tell him the SRT-4 has a "race suspension", "race seats" and the EVO doesn't have a roll-cage, just structural enhancements.  He laughs.  I tell him that for 300 some dollars, the Neon will be just as fast (Mopar Stage 1 = 13.6 1/4 mile, 300 bucks).  Then I tell him that there's only one turbo on the car.  He says, "no two".  I say "wanna open the hood?"  He looks at me like, "yeah, sure, you know more than me, yeah right"  So I say "Bye, have a nice day" and walk away with a grin on my face.   Don't you!
