CLS55 slowest car ever

To go from reverse to drive.

Is that a transmission thing or a supercharger spooling up thing?

Three point turns aren't quick!

Tranny thing. Tuners can speed shifts.

even without hitting the gas you can notice it... there should be at least some kind of momentum felt once your foot is off the brake... shifts fine in all the e500s and sl500s i have driven
