Arkaneslayer Neutral Newbie May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 i saw jacelyn tay driving a CLK320 2 days ago and it spurred me to check out the specs of the merc - surprisingly it does the century sprint faster than the T4 despite the specs CLK320 - weighs 1920kg, 218 HP 310Nm : 0-100 7.4 secs T4 - weighs 1255kg, 200 HP 300Nm : 0-100 8.0 secs what gives? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitman Neutral Newbie May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 Practically bled to death everyday going to work ..... especially when Jacelyn parks her car at Tanjong Pagar Rd , and this assistant comes out to help her carry things from the car into the salon. She would take a box and hold it close to her chest ...... DAMN I WANNA BE THAT BOX !!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yttrium Neutral Newbie May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 First off, the kerb weight of the CLK320 is 1605kg and 7.4secs is probably a little optimistic. Most of the timings I've seen on the web are closer to 7.9s. The CLK also has a 5-speed transmission vs the T4's 4-speed so it probably has lower ratios which helps in the century sprint. And lastly, the CLK does have a much bigger engine than the T4.. like they say "there's no replacement for displacement" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavvy Clutched May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 wahahahaha...

Hitman Neutral Newbie May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 "there's no replacement for displacement" I LOVE that line .... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yttrium Neutral Newbie May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 Then again there are T4s with 5-speed auto boxes. My reference was a Motoring article which quoted a 4 speeder. Is yours 4 or 5 speed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super7 Turbocharged May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 "there's no replacement for displacement" I LOVE that line .... you mean a comparison like this ??? ----- (.)(.) vs (.)(.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super7 Turbocharged May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 (edited) All other things being more or less equal, a turbo 2 litre usually can match a non-turbo 3 litre++ due to the "1.5-factor" in power outputs between to the two......

Yttrium Neutral Newbie May 27, 2003 Share May 27, 2003 (edited) Yup I'm sure they can even exceed a factor of 1.5 if boost pressure is higher. What about turbo lag.. do you think that is a factor that couldn't count against a turbo engine's performance in a century sprint? And let's say both cars have auto transmissions so they can't rev up the engine and dump the clutch? ps: see if I can wake up early to join you guys for breakfast. Got coffee to claim or not?
