C320 E85?
I just saw this on Motorweek. I didn't know that MB made FFV's? Does anyone have one? The 0-60 was .1 sec. faster on the E85 than the gas, and the 1/4 was .5 faster.

Just curious if anyone runs the E85?

See here. I already asked once. Don't forget but motorweek also stated that they had about 10% less gas mileage using E85.

Link doesn't work-so what was the verdict? I just find it interesting that most of the FFV's were like pick-ups, fleet cars and then the 320. Like MB was using it to test the waters.
