E550
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.

Not bad, but to be expected since we don't have the SC. But try that on say the same year, different story. But hey...C55..great car man or should I say great cars

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.
