Check out the Kill Story topic on the forum and you will see that the G35 Sedan is no match for the E350.

I am not much of a street racer...but I keep waiting for the opportunity to go against a G35 and M35 on an open freeway.

Short answer... yes.

But where the W211 smokes the Rice burner is in it's refined and surefooted German road manner.. Drive the two cars and report back.

If it's a race until the fuel tank runs dry, our E320CDI will beat them both.

Who Care's...... As Sam (CE750) touched on, the MB will beat it hands down in overall drivability.
