IN NO WAY DO I APPROVE OF STREET RACING, However, I have run up against one of these on Interstate 5 around the Irvine, CA area.

The 300C may have lots of HP and Torque but it's just not a quick car. My Boxster kept a steady pace ahead of it but I could not lose it. It was about 1.5 car Lengths in distance. I would suspect your S model should have no trouble. Not too sure about how the two would do from a dead stop, but highway the Boxster wins hands down.

This story maybe different if faced with a 300 SRT-8. NOW that's a Monster.
