Raced an e55
Hey everyone,
Today i encounted a w210 e55 Black on Black with near limo tint while driving my c55. We went from a dig and by about 80 i pulled between 3-4 car lengths. We put our windows down and first thing he said was what yr and how much power. I replied its an 06 and 362. He also had what looked to be about a 150 lb passenger where as my car was only me. Just thought i'd share, anyone is welcome to comment. Nice friendly duel between 2 very nice amg's
oh ya and the race was down in mexico on a empty highway.

I own a 1999 W210 Mercedes.
hmmm
wow looks like you beat him by a lot, considering they have similar power....
2006 C55= 362HP , 376TQ, 3,540lbs
2001 E55= 349HP, 391TQ, 3,768lbs
good stuff.

The only thing in the E55s' favor is the torque. 3768lbs, that's not including a full tank...these things are huge. I had mine weighed when I moved down here. It was 3820 with half tank.
