C32 AMG vs 07 E550 4Matic
Well I was at a light and a C32 Amg pulled up next to me at the light. It was for sure loud I can hear it coming from a distance. He had it nicely modded took a look at it when it was next to me. I wanted to race him off the line but figured he might not want to play. Light turns green I roll off the line and slowly accelerate waiting to here if he is gonna go. As I was a fender ahead of him I heard him floor it. I go as well and I pull immediately 2 cars on him. After about 5-6 seconds I was only able to keep the distance not gain or lose. I was shocked I not at all was expecting for that outcome period. I was expecting to get pulled on right away and kept getting pulled on. I wish we could've launched it but then I would've had a much bigger gap due to being a 4matic. I think above 100mph+ it could've pulled on. Either way I wasn't expecting a car with 382hp with a tune to keep up with a C32 amg given the weight difference alone, again not sure what he had but I can tell he definitely did not have stock exhaust.

Believable, the E550 is better off the line due to higher torque but looks like a drivers race.

Dont know if his C32 was modded, but mine ran 12.7 all day long and twice on Sunday. Off the dig, the C32 was quite strong. I had EC tune and pulley and still miss that car. I know , old post, but thought I’d chime in. Now a days, many cars can gap that C32.
