BTW it does it like it were eating a banana, no drama, no fury, simply unfettered thrust. The brakes behave the same way at that speed, powerful, direct and completely up to the task of controlling the freight train without breaking a sweat. No nose diving, pulling or any other negative behaviors, it was like nothing was happenning. The advantages of 50:50 distribution with a very low center of gravity. That's why the AMG provides all the additional theatrics of vibrating seats and flashy lights, if not, even though faster, it would be similarly emotionless.
I LIKE IT!

Not sure my M550 (which I sold to buy my 450+) could beat that. It would have been close, but not at the gas pumps! The EQS is an awesome car. So neat to hear how much you all love yours!

They are about par but though they have almost identical 1/4 the 550 would walk away after that and it has much higher top speed.
