that isn't slow, but ya it's slow for the C55. Edmunds.com's 0-60 times are always to high, it's either the equipment they use or their driver's don't know how to launch a car

Maybe he wasn't trying to race? Or he doesn't know how to drive...

But what's with the warranty? $160,000 Lamborghini Gallardo comes with a 2 year / 24,000 mile warranty?

Thats funny, I tried to kill an F16 and he took out my left rear quarter panel with a sidewinder, That was so uncool.
