Hard driving first impressions

Won't make it to the track for another month but I pushed the car hard today on a group AMG "street" run. Frustrating that I couldn't safely pass the E63s but was very impressed by the engine, brakes, steering, and electronics. Here's a video of me racing an E63 on Mulholland Drive: https://youtu.be/pTaWTgz7iiI

and longer video of the overall experience: https://youtu.be/R8mHSsRKctI

Thought I was riding along with Magic Johnson.

Looks like a lot of fun. Would probably like to have seen a few more shots of the instrument cluster.

Thanks for sharing.
