05 SL 55 AMG, 01 Turbusa/8.43 @ 183..1/4 mi.
SL55AMG Spanked 450RWHP-STANG.
My local tuner (Mark Raliegh @ Turbotune) & I met today to see if my son's(he is 17) '99 3000GT could be "pumped."
He told me to leave the car alone.........it is merely transportation.
Then he told me about one of his customers that had a late-model Blown Mustang which Mark had tuned/mapped/dynoed to 454 RWHP.
Mustang got left behind in an impromptu street-race against a SL55AMG Mercedes less than 1 week after the Mustang had been "primed/tuned/dynoed."
Gotta luv it...........
The really-fun part is that it was reported that the two folks in the SL55 both had lots of Visibly-Gray-Hair.......
Grandpa/Grandma have found a way to still "kick-***"....
Now THAT is funny.........to me. (And I am 59/60)

Glad you had fun!!!
Those are some VERY low numbers for a blown/built Mustang. Most 03/04 Cobras with minor bolt-ons and stock S/C make around 490rwhp. I believe the car is a stock GT with a turbo or S/C. Watch out for the sleepers.

Mustang`s and the SL55
Right around the corner from my house is the Irvine Spectrum Mall.
In there is the Saleen Dealer. They have a bunch of cars in the parking lot for test drives and demos.
Always great fun to be in the area when someone is showing off
getting on the 405 FRWY in one of the "Glorified Mustangs".
Easy pickings for the SL55.
