Dude, it pulled it like the Beemer was standing still. No chance of that happening. It's all AWD and the fwy is where the M5 shines. Also you can get more than 15bhp through light mods tom the Murci- it's a 6.2liter V12 so has a lot more to give than 570bhp

Yes the Murci is faster, but the M5 traps 116 remember.

Allen Lambo- you joined the Merc club huh? Lets see pics of the SLR. An undeniably great vehicle.

The Murci is far from a drag car, and has still managed to trap 122-124mph in the quarter. The FWY is where the Murci shines. The exact numbers on the dyno that the Murci gains from an exhaust upgrade is 30awhp, IF you delete the cats. The car in the video has not had the cats deleted. Swapping out the muffler does give a 100lb weight reduction. That Murci will easily leave a stock M5 far behind.

As for the SLR, I cant wait, but no pictures yet. Car should be here next week. After that, Renntech here it comes.

A RennTech SLR? That would be the pinnacle of Mercedes Benz performance (probably over a CLKDTM). Makes sure to post pictures, results, and videos. Goodluck

There is video of a stock SLR killing a CLK DTM in a drag race.

At somepoint everyone has to take a cooldown lap. You must feel like a real race car driver, ripping up the track in a 4 door E class.

Would love to see you try and pass me though.
