I Agree With You

I agree with you, and the cars ability to keep traction and control is quite impressive too!

Have you thought about the RennTech package that will get to 60 in 3.5?

RennTech

I have given the RennTech upgrades some serious consideration, what I am trying to do is find someone near me who has done the upgrade so I can see/feel the results before I modify my car.

I know how you feel, I was like that with my Murc. Ive seen the RennTech 600s on ebay before. If you go to a RennTech Dealer I'm sure they'd be able to anwser all your questions. From what I hear that car is a BEAST and will easly out run most cars on the road. Here are a few pics....

"This brand new vehicle has more performance and exclusivity than an SL65 and costs $25,000 less!! It is top speed limited to 196mph not the silly 155mph of the SL65. This vehicle is one of the most powerfull and luxurious vehicles on the road today. It boasts 640HP and 760Lbs-ft of torque. 0-60 @ 3.5 sec and 1/4 mile in low 11's. Yet can be daily driven and looks at home in the valet at the finest restaurants. This vehicle will astound you."

I see that car on ebay

I've seen that car before on ebay motors and actually saw it earlier this evening. Appears as though it never reaches it's reserve price. I have a couple of people at two dealerships trying to get me in touch with someone who actually did the upgrade. One dealer actually does the upgrades, I suspect they will be able to make it happen. Thanks for the info.
