Trip report!

mleskovar · 10-16-2009, 10:48 PM

First trip in my 128....Huntington Beach CA to Las Vegas and back....650 miles round trip including sight seeing excursion to Hoover Dam....averaged 69.3 mph and 29.7 mpg....cruise was set at 79 mph and I was usually doing 90 with a few 100 mph short bursts. Loved it. It is a better road car than my Mercedes C320. Quieter, smoother, more comfortable, more solid, better response. I'm impressed.

glad to hear you enjoyed your car! lets get some pics! having a c320 in the fam, i know it is quite the upgrade even though you only have the 128, but the power is pretty much a straight match

Awesome! I'm sure those 90 to 100 MPH just went by!
