The fact that I "believe" it?? Dude...I posted the test results from the car magazines. This is not an opinion of mine, it is a scientifically verified fact. The as-tested margin between the CL55 and M5 is larger than that of the M5 and 330i. Read the articles if you don't believe it, but facts are facts.
And here's another fact: no matter what evidence, be it documented tests, accounts of the forum moderators, or even video evidence provided by the forum moderators, is provided, you're going to keep arguing this silly point. The facts plainly show that what you're describing is physically impossible. He has over 100 horsepower on you, and 130 ft-lb of torque on you, weighs 200 pounds more, and yet you're claiming that after you got off to a whopping 1.5 carlength lead, you held him off to 110 mph.
Sure. And if I drop a brick off of a building, it will fall up.
Either you ran into a non-supercharged, 2000-2002 CL55, or you made the whole thing up, but the facts show that there is no way a lightly modded M5, strong or not, well driven or not, could do what you described to a true supercharged CL55 AMG. Once he hooks up, you're done.
Sorry, but this is a waste of time.
ps:
here's a video of the *new* M5 versus the CLS55 AMG (again, same motor, gearing, and weight as the CL55 AMG). Looks like acceleration was a tie, so be sure to run the new M5 when it comes out...I'm sure he won't get by you, lol.
Talk to the guy in the C55, and see if he wants to back up his claim. I will drive to Miami to meet him if he would like. Its not too far. Its definitely worth the drive.
, but the one that requires action still has zero replies. I would not at all be surprised if it stays that way.
Is that the sound of...
Linear Mode
