Facts

A 3624 pound E320 with 215HP is gonna be a contender? NO.
The C320, yes.

1. C320 - put camera here and point out back window
2. Maxima
3. E320
4. Camry
5. Passat

Last 3 (not 4) will be close.

You may want to race to 80 or so. The 60 limit will come up quick.

Get the facts right...E320 is 221 hp and will be a contender. If you race till 80 the E320 will start pulling hard on a auto.

I'm ONLY worried about the Benz right now! hehe


I always thought those little buggars were quick?

Here are some numbers I was able to dig up on the E320 before it received the V6 transplant in 1998. I couldn't find numbers for that engine.

Car and Driver: 6.7-7.2 0-60
MotorTrend: 7.2-7.4 0-60

Is it going to give you soem competition? I would say so.

I raced teh newest 02 camry V6 from 0 to 100(km/h) I got 1/2 car length jump on him @ the beginning then at like 60 hes a car behind me then @ 100 he was 1.5~2 cars behind me, enough room that I could merge into his lane. empz has more hp then I do, as long as he launches good, hes fine the camry won't beat him.

I laugh at that engine they put in the new ones. It's rated at 192HP BUT the 1997 V6's had 194HP. Reading your story, I would place my bet on Empz Maxima on the Maxima Vs. Camry
