So my cousin in his G37x sedan been talking mad smack saying he will stay at my bumper if we run. So we went on a closed track and did a few 60mph pulls... He was about 8 cars behind. I forgot my camera was laying down on the back seat.

Then my other boy with Subaru Legacy GT stage 2 Said he will take me and wanted to run me so i said lets do this *****, we did about 5 40mph rolls.
It got so boring i stoped using paddle shifters and just stayed in D took him by about 10 cars. Out of 2 G37 gave me a better challenge.
2 bad the passenger that was recording was an evo driver and didn't know how to use a simple ****ing video camera.
Video inside legacy GT we both had 1 passenger.

I have a G37 coupe and G35x and I had no idea that the clk550 is that fast. My cousin brought in his 335i coupe for service and they gave him a 535xi wagon and he thinks its faster then my G35x LOL. We shoud be having a run today if he gets the chance to come here.

The G37 coupe has 330hp/270tq and weighs around 3600 lbs. The G37x has 328hp/269tq weighs around 3700lbs. You will give it to the coupe as well.

Man that was a good kill, instant pull from a roll. Your CLK500 shouldnt have a problem since my E500 has beaten some and your lighter.
