E55AMG hits 0-100mph in 5 SECONDS!

Go to Revvinghigh.com to see the update

I guess with a 6 speed manual, low curb weight, and 450 ponies anything is possible.

Bring it on!!!

I got my order sheet from the dealer in the mail yesterday confirming my order for the W211AMG at MSRP, color and options to be decided. Does anyone have a translator site I could use for the article?

JamE55, why would this message belong in the W210 forum???

They can't give me a date, but I expect it next Spring -- March-May, I hope. I laid out my logic for this in another post in the W211 section.

Google does not translate that language. I think it is in Dutch. Any other ideas.

You realize I mean spring 2003, don't you?

And after contemplating 0-100 time...perhaps that is 0-100 "Kph" not mph? Otherwise you would be talking about 0-60mph in the 3 second range...and that seems a little fast for stoogy old MB to turn loose on our streets........not that I am not hopeful that the translation is indeed 0-100 mph.

As much as I wish it were true, it's actually 0-100 kilometers not miles per hour.

0-100 km/h comes in 5,1 Sec
0- 60 mp/h comes in 4.9 Sec

100 kilometers/hour = 62.137 miles/hour
303 kilometers/hour = 188.275 miles/hour
