New England winters and frequent fill-ups don't mix!
Well that sucks. Some rice burners has a bigger tank than that. What was AMG/MB thinking? A 6.2L V8 powerhouse and only install a 17 gallon tank.
Well something to think about I guess. Wishful thinking they would make the tank bigger for 09'
I wanted a performance sedan, just not one I needed to fuel up every 200 miles.

basically in simple terms, a race car (fuel cell) fuel tank. Your remove the stock tank, pumps and sending unit and re-install them in an after market fuel tank.

And how exactly does that make the car more fuel efficient? From my understanding race tanks are designed to be filled very often and they are smaller due to the weight factor.

You can get fuel cells in almost any size. I have seen them for 5gal. to over 50gal.
Anyway, just a joke. I am not cutting up a 70k car to install a fuel tank.

Whatever Mr. Wizard. The CG would change depending how deep the cell was mounted.
I have a great idea, drop the fuel cell thing. It will just start way to many questions than can be answered.
It's a race car fuel tank, it can be any size you want, it can be made any shape you want, you can mount it were you want, you can mount it how you want, no it is not road legal, no it is not practical, yes it is a lot of money.
Case closed.
