![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Kleemann vs. Chevrolet Not a fan of the Corvette in general. I am going to go out on a limb here and guess the SLK has better interior and just all around quality. No one is going to think too much of it, until you take off. |

I dno, most likely because it is an automatic, it shifts slow and lags off the line, all in all these two added together probably give it about an extra 1 sec of lost time to that speed.
