Raced My Friend's W211 E320
Off the line I launched about a carlength behind him, spun for a few feet, ran up dead even by about 30 and had a solid 1.5 carlengths on him by 70 when he shut down.
Short, fun race.

The Buick isn't fast. At 215 inches long and 4500 some pounds, it's too big and heavy to be fast. But it's fastER than the E320 
Btw, the key is the LT1 under the hood

Motor Trend had tested one at 0-60 in 6.7 and the 1/4 in 15.0 @ 93.2mph.
I don't have that many mods anymore (long story) but I still should be able to hit low 6's and a mid 14's 1/4 mile.
10.4 miles per gallon and new tires every 10k miles, I think I'm doing something right so far

Nahh you'd kick the Buick's ***.....stock.
There are a few quick ones out there. I was modding my car at the same rate as another guy with the same car before I dropped everything, and he now runs 13.5's at the track, traction limited on 275 wide drag radials.
Another one in New York is running low 12's with just a couple mods. In fact he got a set of hubcaps just to add to the sleeper effect. I think I have a video of it blowing the doors off a blown Cobra. To top it all off, it's his wife's daily driver.
