To tell you the truth, I'd be willing to take on any 55 or maybe try for a 65 just for kicks. And yes John, this includes your POS.

Check out the thread about "Predict the outcome...C6 Z vs. M5 vs. Gallardo" and this dufus cuts in with the same M6 vs SL55 video.
Not only is there a whole thread about this video but he cuts in just about every thread with the same video.
I think you shoud bookmark it for future references. What is funny is that his post completely ignored and the people keep discussing the topic of the thread. Thats one swedish sh*thead for you.

Why don't you do it on a straight line.
OH and by the way if you want to compare best to best............ No offense to sl55 owners( especially since that is the car I am going to get next after residency) but have you tried the sl600 and the sl65...........best of the best versus best of the best from each company.
Even your own people on the M5board asked you why you chose sl55 over sl65 and sl600 and don't even use price or availability as an excuse!
Wow now I know what a forum troll is! :p
Who is this kid anyway...now I know what the e55 guys have been talking about. I don't think any of us go on bimmer forums trying to **** on their cars with new cars from benz that just came out.

Ahhh... I race to higher speeds because it is interesting, that means around 250-260 km/h. Very difficult to find those stretches. The SL55 owner was invited to the airfield but didnt show up, so we d oa rolling start from 100 km/h.
SL65 is hard to find owners who wants to race. Supply and demand, simple as that. Also in Sweden we have snow and cold weather, and this was close to freezing, so conditions were already a bit dicey.
Do a better yourself, I would lve to see some more SL65 AMG in action!
Caliboy: also try to be less arrogant and try to enjoy cars instead, of any brand...

You have to understand this is a benz forum and you come here post a claim and a vid without much explanation about circumstances and expect us to love it. We don't do that on your forum that I know of and neither should you.
I don't know much about you, but are you the same guy that is always pissing off the e55 guys posting all these arguably questionable claims in a nasty way?
Oh and two more questions just answer them straight up ok:
Is it true that you don't allow anyone to post whena mercedes beats a bimmer on your forum and you ban them as well if they do? I was thinking about joining your forum cause my pops is thinking of getting an M5, but if I can't make a fair BMW vs BENZ comment and the Benz just happens to win then forget it.
And also do you get kickbacks or get paid by BMW? I mean I don't care I actually think that's kinda cool! I would love to do that for benz or bimmer.
Btw as you can tell I love bimmer as well certain kinds.......M3 and M5 are bad A ss machines, but you gotta be more civil and fair when you post things around here.........you know that video you just posted really does not prove much. Lets see if we can get those two cars next to each other and race fair and square. I do think the M6 will win, but not by the ridiculous way it was shown in that video. That driver in the merc looks like he si more careful with his little "baby" than you were with the M6. Had that been me I guarantee I would have at least been right at your aSSSSSS! waiting for you to F-up so I can go for the kill!

But on a different note, let's not ***** on this thread. I want to see what this Gustav dude has to say about the above questions. Why does this guy come on here like this all the time?

Hello.
answers:
1. Is it true that you don't allow anyone to post whena mercedes beats a bimmer on your forum and you ban them as well if they do?
No. I ban people that do not behave. I have a lot of E55 owners on the site.
2.And also do you get kickbacks or get paid by BMW? I mean I don't care I actually think that's kinda cool! I would love to do that for benz or bimmer.
No, I do this for fun and no kickback whatsoever. I have had the site since 1996 and I love cars. Esp. Mercedes

Regarding fair and square race: I think it was. It cannot be done in any more perfect way. Each next to each other and then floor it. I even gavce the SL55 AMG the jump, since I let off the gas when he hit it.

Now try this with an sl600 delimited or an sl65...... both torque monsters which is the Benzo's best quality. I think even a cl65 vs M6 would be a very interesting race.
Now you see Gustavito........this is a car converstation without the throw it in your face.............f-u benz owners attitude that you initially came off with.
That's how you come to a respected forum like this and represent for your Bimmer peeps. You might even get some bimmer converts in the process fool! Not! J/k! :p
I have one last question for you...........How come you get a hold of these cars before they even come out? That's a pretty big connection you have there if you ask me......kinda suspect. And please elaborate a little more.....because I'm on to your "answer short and quickly so I don't get flamed too much style" lol!

I have looked at this video several times, and it seems as if the video is edited as soon as the 55 started to pull past the M6 with ease once Ol Gus said that he was serious. The 55 moves ahead and all of a sudden the cars are back beside each other. I call total BS on this video.

2nd: The R-GT IS NOT Street Legal in anyway shape or form-- I've not only read about it in MLE (Modified Luxury & Exotics), but I've seen the blasted thing run around Limerock against Ferrari and Corvettes.
My comparo is valid.

Caliboy, with all due respect, you're wasting your time talking to Gustav. His intelligence matches that of a screwdriver, and clearly, he doesn't mind showing it.
Not only does he always manage to tick off our fellow E55 owners, but he manages to get under everyone elses skin with this ridiculous trolling-trip he's on.
It is funny though, regarding the video, when suddenly the SL starts to pull-- we hear dear Gustav damn near yelping like a little pansy and than-- BLACK, and the vehicles are side by side once more. A bit suspicious... "Oh ****," was right, this race is about as valid and trustworthy, as using Paris Hilton when phoning a friend.
I hope to god at one of these meets I get a chance to run into one of these overrated (and ugly) BMWs. I'll show them what Mercedes is all about, fairly.
I, for the life of me, cannot understand how trolls-- yes, you, Gustav-- are allowed to freely screw up our community over here, yet when a stupid remark is made by one of our own (Gee, I don't know... Tuscanraider?), the member is banned.
Gustav, seriously, I think I speak for a majority of MBWorld members when I say:
Leave.

P.S. I'm not a dude - I'm a girl
Also, I echo what others are saying about the video not looking legit - I wondered about that "oh s**t" too.
I would also like to see a truly fair race - no cuts, from stopped.

Thats it, I'm going over to the bimmer forums and posting a video of how I beat a bunch of "modded" (Intake and exhaust) bimmers. I really dont care if you were able to pull on a "modded SL55". Do you see DerekFSU going over to the bimmer boards saying "Eat my dust biatches!"? No. Thats why if he posts that a M6 pulled that hard on a SL55 I'd believe him. You have no credibility here so keep your arrogant remarks and videos to yourself.

I'm willing to bet, the SL driver was pushing the pedal down just enough to keep up with the M6-- but not enough to beat it... not until the very end anyways. :v
