for being a stock CL 55 it was able to hang...

CL55 weigh hundres more than a CLS or E class..

I think the Title should read "don't mess with a few EVO's" not all ...but few are beast slayers.

No kidding. He was spinning pretty good at first punch, and that wasn't even reving very high. I wonder what speed they were going.

Unless there is a decent chunk of work done to it, they run out of steam once into the triple digits. Handle well and launch brutally, but need some serious compensation to run with the Germans after the quarter mile.

I was referring to BPU, but reading my last post over, I realize it can be interpreted as more. Heavily modified, these things are a force to be reckoned with. But in detuned OEM trim, absolutely nothing special on the highway. With some BPU, however, they will begin to hold their own. This is all in regard to highway pulls. Handling is an entirely different scenario.
