while we are on the topic of what a maxima can beat...

How would a 5 speed 4th gen do against a 528i BMW? How about 530i??? 5spd max vs. auto 528/530??????

I was thinking about this the other day on my way back home from work, this guy was flying on the highway and I thought "if I was a stick, could i beat him?"



anyone

All SVT Contours are stick shift.

I was dead even with one from 80 - 120 mph. We went at it several times...

The Contour SVT is a quick litle bugger. 195hp (the 99-00 had 200hp) 167 ft-lbs (the 2000 up it to 170 ft-lbs), weighs 3068lbs (the 2000 weighs 3126, a little more than a 97 Maxima). It should be a good race, just run him and see what happens.

Yes.

And NYCe I'm an auto and I've take out my friends auto 528i numerous times. He also has a 2000 auto Maxima and I've taken that out too.
