ML55 Vs. SSR Vs. SL 600

Raced this old guy at the stop light yesterday., In one of those chevy ssr's. We rolled out to like 5 mph and then floored it. I had him the entire way up to 70 like 1 and half lengths at least towards the end. I hit the breaks and he blows by me still flooring it! Meanwhile the whole time behind us there was a Sl 600 just keeping pace. They both didnt seem to let off proba. hit 90 mind you this is the middle of the day maybe 4ish. really was prefect timeing no cars in sight. I had to turn off to make a street but they kept going in the end the ssr got beat by to benz's in the same race. fun stuff!!

Yup. Look at it compared to an SL55. The 55 is much more aggressive looking. The 600 is almost completely identical to a 500 in the looks department.

True that. The 600 series cars are real sneeky and I've been caught out on a couple of occassions assuming te car was a 500. I'd floor it only to see 2tons of metal come past my drivers side at an alarming rate. Very humbling.
