And this thread is going to go to pure S****t very soon b/c people are not going to read through the entire thing and start copying and pasting comments like you and I have started to do.
If people actually read through posts there would never been a comment like
this from.

Actually SLK AMG 55 is slower than E55 AMG. SLK AMG only has v8, e55 has a supercharged v8.
B/c I posted the exact same comment around 3 posts before.

Factors to think about:
1) The cars weight. This could prevent it from safely going faster than a certain speed range in tight turns, where a lighter, less powerful car can go faster
2) Driver's skill. It's entirily possible that even with all the power and grip the driver simply doesn't know how to drive "fast"
3) Driver's pucker factor. And for those with any real knowledge of street racing AND get the POINT OF THIS THREAD--this is what happened with the E55 today.
He was willing to drive like a fast, non-caring a$$ tool as long as the road was straight, he was thinking "I'll show this slow japcrap how it's done, another 350z kill".
I've done this too many times with guys driving cars WAY more powerful and that handle better on *this* road. They are all attitude and huff until they see me pass them on the turns OR hug their a$$ Touge style through the turns. (that happens with the guys that know more what they are doing)
Everyone understand now?

Do you have any idea about what you are talking about do you even know the specs of the cars you are writing about?
An E55 has 469 hp and around 515 lb. ft of torque the slk 55 has 360 hp it actually uses the old E55 engine (2002 and before) the E55 outperforms the slk 55 so your post makes very little sense.

S55 does 0-60 in 5.6sec so ur sayin it would eat up modded 350Zs and wrx's??? doesn't make any sense. maybe u got it mistaken as SL55 or a SL65, now i wouldn't mess with those. S55 is a supercharged version of the full-size S-class model if u didn't know. let's not diss on our own cars =)
