recovering my C55

After almost a year since my car crashed, I´m happy to announce that my baby is coming back... so far I had the following issues to fix:

A/C Conditioner - DONE
A/C Condenser - DONE
Front bumper - DONE
Plate conductor(gears stuck in limp mode) - DONE

I was so desperate that had decided to sell my Benz, but now I´m thinking twice getting rid of it... offers are around 27k, and localy I can´t find a car such as my MB with that value...
My problem now is when I press deep the gaz the car does not go as fast as it use to be, it seems to die, and only after few seconds it engages and runs as it should be... do you have any ideias what could be causing this?
FYI, it has been parked for more than 8 months due to "limp" mode

thanks,
G

If it has been parked and not run in that long, you probably have some poor gas in there and are not getting optimum performance. Is this the case?
