Grandomany is based on empty speculations? That's a new one!
Think harder dude, those 2 are not sinonims or so related. Yes in particular cases speculating in a stubburn way or in a way to show off leads to grandomany. Just speculating things doesn't make a person grandoman. Showing off proprety, level of inteligence, wealth or any other things and poking people in the eye IS after all grandomany.

Let me clarifi 2 things:
1. I speculated on the power of that porsche...not knowing it's output. But after all u were the only one to say it's exact output. Good for u. What else could we, other mortals, do? Start a search frenzy on the owner/specs of that porsche?

2. On the E420 CDI i said and sustain my point of view that it doesn't handle as good as a bmw. After all i never drove that particular model, and u can say i'm speculating...but in a way i'm not. I saw alot of numbers from ALOT of magazines, tv shows, when E class was often compared to 5 series. At all categories the E class lost all kind of tests: like skid pad, slalom time....and so on. All that's related to handling. Even the test of the kings with the E55 AMG and E60 M5 the E lost at handling. If u keep to sustain those things it's ur opinion. So in conclusion i can say that i really didn't speculate on the e420 cdi's handling considering all the tests i've seen. Or don't tell me the e420 cdi is now the mother of all previous E models including amg.

With this i conclude my replays to you ont his post and on the other. Stick to your point of view and i'll stick to mine. I don't want no more to consume myself in this stupid argument cuz it doesn't worth to.

good stuff! and again, i calculater the output of the porsche, not knowing the exact specs. But you already know that

BTW you should come south of the border so i can show you the 420cdi...

BetterMakeWay what did you say about the skid pad test ??? bmw performs better
