Perhaps I'm uninformed. Y'all will eventually get to your destination. Getting there in one piece should be your main concern, not winning useless trophy like I Sabi run pass you

The problem with your logic is that you seem to think that the millions of people who race in their cars are idiots, while you're the smart one.

I'm not in support of street racing, as it's dangerous, but it's easy to see why people do it.

It's fun. Dazall.

It may be fun until you realise someone catching ‘fun’ overspeeds and kills another woman's child. The fun stops for me the moment another person's life is in danger. I totally dont overspeeding. I may not care about the lives of the driver, but how about innocent people just going their own way? Sorry sir, but speeding will never make sense to me

The thing with people like you is that you seem to think others are racing you.

Na so I dey go my way jeje towards one intersection two days ago, as I dey pass one Golf baba start dey fire down. I just eased off the throttle completely and let him pass. Probably baba will come to Nairaland and say that he dusted one Infiniti.

Ok.

Wetin dey my mind at that point na make baba pass, because I no get strength for accident.

You're racing them doesn't mean they're racing you.

That said, a four cylinder versus a Corolla is likely pretty close.

this is the truth, when u realize u have a family that loves u in return u won't want to race a Random car just to proof ur point that ur car runs faster, at the end no one gives u a trophy, una both no dey reach the same destination, u both will never cross path after the show off, so many has died on the road driving just cuzz of this same show off to proof there cars aren't to be matched with others,
As u dey try shown urself for road, another car also will likely to be faster than Urs, stay humble and know that the road belongs to everyone, when a useless driver wanna show himself on the road with me I dey jejely give am way to pass, this life no get duplicate, I use to drag speed with others when I was younger and senseless, now am older and wiser,
Na who drive pass na be the person wai get home safe to see him family oh... Drive safe every one

Even though I drive a 2011 Corolla Sports with 80k miles, i have never considered it as a race car. I wouldn't even consider racing a Camry.
How can you ever contemplate racing a Benz with a 1.8ltr car?
Everyone should know their levels and give respect accordingly.
I'd be managing my Corolla until i am able to afford a performance car like Benz Amg, BMW etc. To those already driving these, maximum respect to you!!

I also put it to u sir that buying a certain car shouldn't be for respect from people, get a car for ur own comfort and fun of owning it, also don't look down on those who drive lesser cars like Volvo etc, the more we try to think smart in what we do in Africa, the better some people won't feel so pressured to wanna feel among to get so that spot doing illegal business and fraud to drive a car for respect
Some of us who are a bit fortunate to have stayed abroad tend to understand that even when u drive a Benz no one give a fu*k, cuzz ur boss who is a Ceo might not own a car but go by train or bus to work, or even use a bicycle,cuzz no body look at u in high respect when u buy such, at a point u will just know u wanna buy it for ur own comfort and not to impress ur mates or ladies. Don't blame the next door neighbour who wanna do fraud to own a Benz cuzz he also wanna feel among, we are the cause of our own problem in Africa...

Whoever said Volvo is a lesser car?
I wouldn't even race a Volvo as most have turbo charged engines.
The point is not to make anyone feel less but appreciate their levels per time and to pick their battles wisely.
If you have a heavy foot, Corolla shouldn't be your choice car but while it is what we can afford, it is wise to use it responsibly in order to remain alive.

You're welcome. You'll be the first Corolla owner that'll earn respect from me. Why? Sense of proportion and moderation. Temperance. God will surely lift you up to what you desire. I and pafestula compared the 2001 Mercedes Benz E320 to the 2008 Camry muscle... The Benz was what the Camry would love to be....but never attain.

I bet you have never driven it before. That vehicle is decently fast especially as it switches between the first, second and perhaps third gear and will embarrass a lot of V6 vehicles.

It starts dragging from the third gear and that's when it becomes annoying to drive

Yeah and I stand by my words. The V6 will eventually catch up and outrun it but trust me, off the line, that vehicle will embarrass quite a number of V6 vehicles.

You don't need to believe me, just get one and drive.

On a 0-100km/hr sprint, some i4s will outrun some v6. Power to weight ratio, gearing, factory engine tune etc will play a role. Some v6 are small like the mercedes c240 mentioned on this thread. Some i4s are big. There is a 2.7 litre 4 cylinder with bigger displacement than the engine in the mercedes c240.
The feeble looking 2007 honda city with cvt gets to 100km/hr faster than the 2003 mercedes c230. Yes. Look it up. And it's a bloody 1.5l engine. Admittedly, the benz will overtake at that point and keep going but still a feat by the tiny much derided honda (japanese).

In all, when making claims or comparisons, its best to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges.

No need comparing an e350 to a Corolla. They are not in the same category neither are they marketed the same.
