If Brabus rolled off the MB lot, then they would be stock to me as well...I was only giving an example.
AMGBRED: go get the quad exhaust and rear apron, then maybe ppl won't call it stock...it does look stock to me and thats coming from someone who knows mercedes...imagine what ignorant riceboys would think?
Still a very nice car though.

i drive an ///M6
great story...
so I catch a light with a new subaru wrx that's
all " juiced" up- exhaust, lowered, chip, aftermarket turbo,decals, the whole 9 - and supposedly "nitrous"- but I'm sure he didn't use it. they look over- typical "kids" in their early 20's, so my wife and i agree it's time to switch to manual mode. it's about 30 degrees out, but i lowered my pressure to 28psi in the tire, so I should be ok, right? i thought for sure that their AWD would at least get the jump on me, BUT...... the light goes green, I "roll" on the throttle as gently as i can w/o spinning, jumped ahead about 10 feet- his front end is at my rear wheel, i hear his turbo and blow-off valve as if it was an inch away from my ear. As soon as i hit 3500 rpm, i feel the tcs going, the rear tries to break, but stabilizes-- all the way to 100mph- that's where we stayed. - i took him by almost a full car-WITH traction breaking. Oooooh - I can't wait for the warm weather. the funny thing is that i never had the pedal on the floor, only about 3/4 the way. they followed me for about 15miles, i let them by and they gave me the "cool" nod. Another feather in my cap...

Nice kill story, ICEAMG whats the ride you have?
I think all AMG can take a WRX, well off the line its a close race but a race from 70 and on, AMG all the way. An STI thats a diff story, I know those things are very fast and the same with the Mitsu Evo. All I know is that 0-60 STI will put me to shame, but lets race at 70+ to 150 and see who gets there first. LOL

yeah lets get that sig updates and show off the ride. I'd hope that a clk55 would take an sti and evo. I just know I'd have a hard time doing it being a C43. But I look at it this way. Took Subura and Mitsu 6 yrs to make a car to beat the C43 that surprised all in 98. Plus they had to do it with turbos. Remember C43 is just a V8, No kompressors. The german muscle car
